Chapter 4 Frame and Carriage Assembly
Re-engaging the Drive Shaft
1) Loosen the coupling assembly, slide the coupling away from the gearbox, towards the
center of the drive shaft.
2) Retrieve the Drive Shaft Key from the coupling and set aside.
Note: Keep in mind that when sliding the coupling away, the key will most likely fall from the
keyway of both connecting shafts. Set it to the side until instructed to replace it.
3) Locate the Main Drive Gearbox Key and apply anti-seize to the key.
4) Line up the key slot in the gearbox with the key slot in the gearbox drive shaft.
5) Slide the Gearbox Key back into the gearbox, be sure to insert the key with the hole on the
outside of the gearbox, as shown below.
Note: The gearbox may have to be moved or repositioned for ease of replacing (sliding in) the key.
Note: You will know when the Gearbox Key is inserted all the way, it will bottom out in the shaft
and the hole at the end will still be visible.
6) Reinstall the Drive Shaft Key and Coupling assembly linking the two shafts back together.
Use a 9/16” wrench to tighten the coupling bolts and re-engage the drive train.
7) If the carriage has been raised using the Jack Bolt(s), raise the bolt(s) and secure it into its
raised position using the Jam Nut.
