Gear Set Adjustment Recommended Sequence

Gear Set Adjustment Recommended Sequence

The following work sequence is recommended to save time when crown wheel and pinion shaft have to be adjusted:





• Determine total shim thickness "Stotal" (S 3 plus S4) for the specified preload on pinion shaft tapered roller bearings.

• Distribute total shim thickness "Stotal" (S 3 plus S4) so that dimension from center of crown wheel to end face of pinion shaft corresponds to installation dimension " R" determined during production.

• Determine total shim thickness "Stotal" (S 1 plus S2) for the specified preload on differential tapered roller bearings.

• Distribute total shim thickness "Stotal" (S 1 plus S2) so that the specified backlash between crown wheel and pinion shaft is obtained.
