Replacing the roller bearing
– Remove all bearing locking screws
1
from both case halves.
– Remove all shaft seal rings and the dowel pins from the case halves.
Heat both case halves evenly in an oven at 150° C; the roller bearings
will fall out of the case by themselves. If any roller bearings should be
left in the case, tap the case lightly on a flat wooden surface.
NOTE: the shift shaft bearing
2
must be pressed out with the pressing
tool 600.29.043.030, although this bearing is usually highly resistant to
wear.
– Replace all of the roller bearings. The new roller bearings can be
inserted by hand until flush as soon as the case temperature has
reached approx. 150° C. The roller bearings should fit tightly after
cooling down. Use a mandrel to carefully press in any bearings that
are not flush with the surface.
NOTE: the shift shaft bearing
2
must be pressed in flush with the
pressing tool 600.29.043.030.
– Press in the shaft sealing ring
3
for the push rod until flush using the
special tool 600.29.043.010.
– Press in the shaft sealing ring for the countershaft
4
until flush using
the special tool 600.29.043.020.
– Press in the shaft sealing ring for the shift shaft
5
until flush using
the special tool 600.29.043.030.
– Apply Loctite 243 to all bearing locking screws
1
and tighten to 6 Nm.
