Gearbox
♦ Do not run the engine or tow the vehicle with the oil pan re‐
moved or when there is no gear oil in the gearbox.
♦ Thoroughly clean all joints and connections and the surround‐
ing areas before disconnecting.
♦ When installing gearbox, ensure that dowel sleeves are fitted
correctly.
O-rings, seals, oil seals and gaskets
♦ Always renew O-rings, seals, oil seals and gaskets.
♦ After removing gaskets and seals, always inspect the contact
surface on the housing or shaft for burrs resulting from removal
or for other signs of damage.
♦ Thoroughly clean housing joint surfaces before assembling.
♦ Always replace paper gaskets. Completely remove old gasket
and clean sealing surfaces thoroughly.
♦ Lightly lubricate the outer circumference and sealing lip of oil
seals with gear oil before installing.
♦ Lightly lubricate O-rings with gear oil or vaseline before instal‐
lation to prevent them from getting crushed during assembly.
♦ Do not use any other lubricants where gear oil is specified.
Otherwise, there is a risk of problems occurring in the gearbox
hydraulics.
♦ The open side of the oil seals faces toward the side with fluid
filling.
♦ When installing a new oil seal, position the seal in the housing
so that the sealing lip does not contact the shaft in the same
place as the old seal (make use of installation depth toleran‐
ces).
♦ Observe rules for cleanliness ⇒ page 6 .
Locking elements
♦ Do not over-stretch circlips.
♦ Renew circlips which have been damaged or over-tensioned.
♦ Circlips must be properly seated in the base of the groove.
Nuts, bolts
♦ Loosen bolts in reverse sequence to the specified tightening
sequence.
♦ Bolts and nuts which secure covers and housings should be
loosened and tightened in diagonal sequence and in stages if
no tightening sequence is specified.
♦ Renew self-locking nuts.
♦ Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts which are se‐
cured with locking fluid. Then apply locking fluid -
AMV 185 101 A1- to bolt threads before installing.
♦ The tightening torques stated apply to non-oiled nuts and
bolts.
