Precautions
20
Cases, covers, etc.
Make sure cases, covers, etc. are completely clean
and that mounting surfaces and bearing bores are
free from nicks or burrs. Check carefully every part
for cracks, excessive wear or for any other condition
that may cause oil leak or a future failure.
Needle roller bearings
Check carefully every needle roller for wear, pitting or
spalled areas to determine whether they are suitable
for reuse or replacement. After inspection, dip the
needle roller bearings in an oil bath and then wrap
them in a lint free cloth or paper, so as to protect
them until they are ready for assembling.
Parts replacement
When replacement is necessary, use only genuine
Eaton transmission parts to assure continued
performance and extended life from the transmission.
The use of either non-genuine or remanufactured
parts, besides have not the factory’s warranty, may
lead to severe damage of the unit.
Since the cost of a new part is generally a small
fraction of the total cost of downtime and labor, do
not reuse a questionable part which could lead to
additional repairs and expense soon after assembly.
To aid in determining the reuse or replacement of any
transmission part, consideration should also be given
to the unit’s history, mileage, application, etc.
Oil seals and snap ringselásticos
Any oil seal, snap ring, etc. damaged during
maintenance, should be replaced by a new one.
Replacement of oil seals and snap rings is cheaper
when unit is disassembled than a premature overhaul
to replace these parts in a future time.
An oil leakage through a worn seal may result in
failures of other more expensive components of
the transmission. The sealing elements should be
handled carefully, particularly during assembly. Cuts,
scratches or rolled up seal lips decrease the sealing
efciency.
Snap rings have proper assembling
position due to the angle of their opening
ends. The side with shorter opening
should be faced towards the outside to
facilitate the installation with pliers.
