hours of operation.
The initial 25 hrs of operation on a new transmission will indicate this process when the
oil is changed for the first time. The oil will appear very silvery and fine metal filings will
be noticeable on the drain plug's magnet.
Abrasive Wear and Scratching
Metal particles which flake off gears, shafts and castings are carried in the lubricant and
can cause uneven and premature wear to gear teeth. Thorough cleaning of all components
at disassembly and fresh transmission oil can normally prevent further wear of this kind.
Breakage
Any gear or spline shaft with cracked, broken or missing teeth should be replaced
immediately. The installation of a badly damaged gear or shaft will lead to premature
wear of other components and other potential breakdowns.
Replace all badly worn, broken or missing components immediately with genuine ARGO
replacement parts.
If there is any doubt as to whether the transmission component needs replacing, generally
the best thing to do is to replace it while the job is at hand.
Aluminum Cage
Inspect the aluminum cage for any hairline
cracks, especially at the shoulder where the
inner bearing is seated. Photo TR-68
Bearings
Unless the ARGO technician has determined
to his/her own satisfaction that the bearings are suitable to reuse, it is recommended that
all bearings be replaced when rebuilding a transmission.
