Place the circlip in the drive shaft groove.
Fig. 1
Measure the outer diameter of the serration. Choose
the suitable half shell size which suffi ciently encloses
the serration. Note: Size information can be found on
the underside of the half shells.
Fig. 2
Insert the corresponding half shells in the circlip
pliers 1847-12 above the cylindrical guide until they
engage.
Fig. 3
Place the circlip pliers over the circlip on the drive
shaft serration and secure the circlip pliers. Position
the drive shaft joint on the half shells. Always ensure
that the drive shaft joint is aligned to the drive shaft.
The serration should be easy to fi t.
Fig. 4
Note:
Ensure that the half shells do not protrude
over the drive shaft, as this hinders the insertion of
the serration.
Strike the drive shaft joint with a soft-faced hammer.
This pushes the circlip pliers down onto the serration.
Fig. 5
Once the drive shaft joint is in the correct position,
you can loosen the circlip pliers and remove them
from the drive shaft.
Note:
Check that the drive shaft joint is placed
correctly. The circlip prevents the drive shaft joint
from being pulled off the drive shaft. Note: Vehicle
manufacturer information must be strictly observed
and followed!
Then install the further components according
to the corresponding application notes and
manufacturer information.
