CONSTRUCTION OF THIS MANUAL

This manual consists of chapters for the main categories of subjects. (See “Symbols” on the

next page.)
1st title

1

: This is a chapter with its symbol on the upper right of each page.

2nd title

2

: This title appears on the top of the each page, to the left of the chapter symbol.

3rd title

3

: This title precedes the paragraphs describing the working procedure.

All the procedures in this manual are organized in a sequential, step-by-step order. The infor-

mation has been compiled to provide the mechanic with an easy-to-read, handy reference that

contains comprehensive explanations of all disassembly, check, repair, and assembly proce-

dures.
Important procedures including removing, checking, and assembling steps 

4

 are explained in

detail.

EXPLODED DIAGRAM

Each chapter begins with exploded diagrams which facilitate correct disassembly and assem-

bly.

SHIM SELECTION (UPPER UNIT HOUSING)

R-gear Shim (T5) Adjustment

1. Use the guide, bearing puller 2 

1

 and

the bearing puller 

2

 to remove the bear-

ing outer race from the selector valve

housing.

NOTE:

¡

When the bearing and the selector valve

housing are not replaced, DO NOT re-

move the bearing outer race.

¡

When replacing the bearing, replace the

total inner and outer set.

¡

Make sure that the bearing puller is set at

the position specified in the illustration.

Drive shaft motive torque (A):

0.4 – 1.5 N·m

3. Loosen the front bearing housing bolts

to 1/2 rotation and measure pre-load B

(motive torque) of the drive shaft.

NOTE:

Measure resistance of the clutch disk section

as the pre-load B (motive torque).

4. Calculate the drive shaft pre-load (mo-

tive torque) based on the pre-load (mo-

tive torque) A and B.

Formula:

Drive shaft pre-load = pre-load (A) 

 pre-

load (B)

NOTE:

If the drive shaft pre-load (motive torque) is

greater than the specification, reduce the

shim T6b. If the drive shaft pre-load (motive

torque) is less than the specification, increase
the shim T6b.

3. After inserting the bearing outer race

with press, install the inner race. Use the

shimming tool, T5/T6a 

1

 to measure the

clearance (Measurement B) between the

tool and the bearing with a thickness

gauge.

NOTE:

To have the clearance, measure the line be-

tween the point 

A

 and 

B

 on the bearing.

4. Find the stamped R-valve of the upper

gear case.
