ME8200DTN, WSM FRONT AXLE
N6-S14
Backlash between Spiral Bevel Pinion Shaft and Spiral Bevel
Gear
1. Set a dial gauge (lever type) with its finger on the spline of
spiral bevel pinion shaft.
2. Measure the backlash by moving the spiral bevel pinion shaft
by hand lightly.
3. If the backlash is not within the factory specifications, change
the adjusting collar (3), (4).
4. Adjust the backlash properly by repeating the above
procedures.
Backlash between 10T Bevel Gear and 17T Bevel Gear
1. Stick a strip of fuse spots on the 17T bevel gear (1) with
grease.
2. Fix the front axle case, bevel gear case and front gear case.
3. Turn the axle.
4. Remove the bevel gear case from front axle case and
measure the thickness of the fuses with an outside
micrometer.
5. If the backlash is not within the factory specifications, adjust
with shim (3).
