If you’re disassembling friction wheel and

replacing only rubber ring, proceed as follows:

NOTE:

Not all friction wheels are serviceable.

If this is the case, simply replace friction wheel

assembly.
1.

Remove four screws (a) which secure

friction wheel’s side plates together.
See Figure 4-27.

(a)

Figure 4-27

Remove rubber ring from between the

plates.

Reassemble side plates with a new

rubber ring.

NOTE:

When reassembling friction

wheel assembly, make sure that rubber

ring is centered and seated properly

between the side plates. Tighten each

screw only one rotation before turning

wheel clockwise and proceeding with

next screw. Repeat this process several

times to ensure plates are secured with

equal force (between 145-115 in-lbs).

NOTE:

Make sure shift lever pin is in

place in bearing housing.

See Figure 4-25 inset.

Slide friction wheel assembly back

onto hex shaft and follow the steps

above in reverse order to reassemble

components.

After replacing friction wheel, perform

Drive Control Lever test shown on page 18.
