Adjustment

1. M/T Mainshaft Thrust Clearance Adjustment


1.

Thoroughly clean the 28 mm spring washer (A) and the 28 mm washer (B) before installing them on the clutch housing side ball bearing (C).

NOTE: Be sure to install the spring washer in the direction shown.

2.

Assemble all of the mainshaft components.

NOTE: Refer to the Exploded View as needed during the assembly.

3.

Install the mainshaft assembly into the clutch housing.

4.

Place the transmission housing over the mainshaft and onto the clutch housing.

5.

Tighten the clutch and transmission housings with several 8 mm bolts.

NOTE: It is not necessary to use sealing agent between the housings for this procedure.

6.

Lightly tap on the mainshaft with a soft face hammer.


7.

Attach the mainshaft holder and the mainshaft base to the mainshaft as follows:

Back out the mainshaft holder bolt (A), and loosen the two hex bolts (B).

Fit the mainshaft holder over the mainshaft so its lip is towards the transmission.

Align the mainshaft holder lip around the groove at the inside of the mainshaft splines, then tighten the hex bolts.

8.

Fully seat the mainshaft by tapping its end with a soft face hammer.

9.

Thread the mainshaft holder bolt in until it just contacts the wide surface of the mainshaft base.


10.

Zero a dial gauge (A) on the end of the mainshaft.

11.

Turn the mainshaft holder bolt (B) clockwise; stop turning when the dial gauge has reached its maximum movement. The reading on the dial gauge is the amount of mainshaft thrust clearance.

NOTE: Do not turn the mainshaft holder bolt more than 60 degrees after the needle of the dial gauge stops moving. Applying more pressure with the mainshaft holder bolt could damage the transmission.

12.

If the reading is within the standard, the clearance is correct. If the reading is not within the standard, select the appropriate shim needed from the table, and recheck the thrust clearance.

Standard:

0.11－0.17 mm
(0.0043－0.0067 in)

(Example)

Measure reading:

1.93 mm (0.0760 in)

Subtract the total clearance measurement from the middle of the clearance standard 0.14 mm (0.0055 in).

1.93 － 0.14 mm (0.0760 －0.0055 in) = 1.79 mm (0.0705 in)

Select the shim closest to the amount calculated, for example the 1.80 mm (0.0709 in) shim.

13.

With oil guide plate M and the appropriate size shim installed in the transmission housing, check the thrust clearance again to verify the clearance is within the standard.
