GEARBOX - ASSEMBLY
a/ It is assumed that all bearings, oil seals, studs, oil jets, and dowels are already fitted into casing. (see page 5).
b/ Assemble the oil pump components (if required). Heat the maincase, and drop the pump into position. Secure with screws , and add the drive
gear and circlip.
c/ Place the reverse idler gear (104), bearing (106), and thrust washers (107) in position in the bearing carrier, and slide the spigot (105) into
position. Secure with screw (12).
d/ Assemble the selector rack (75), washers (76), spring (77), and circlip (78), and slide into the maincase. Secure with the selector rack stop
(80). Note: Check the gear linkage return spring length regularly (item 77). This spring has a finite life and will weaken with use. A new
spring has a free height of 1.450”. It is also adviseable never to re-use the circlip (78).
