7 Remove circlip D to allow the sun gear to be slid off the
drive shaft.
8 To remove the ‘Verbus Ripp’ bolts E, it is necessary to
remove the spacer F. Revolve the spacer with a suitable
drift to align the holes in the spacer with the space
between the bolts.
9 Using two dowels and two heel bars, remove the spacer
using the method shown.
10 Remove the 'Verbus Ripp' bolts using a special tool
(part number 892/00333). These bolts are very tight and
care must be taken not to distort the bolt heads. Use as
short an extension bar as possible.
11 Using 2 high grade M14 bolts as jacking screws,
remove the annulus carrier.
Note: Fretting between the hub swivel and annulus carrier
mating faces might be evident; this condition is normal, do
not attempt to repair. If the hub swivel and annulus carrier
are to be re-used, the carrier must be assembled in the same
angular position it was removed; match mark the hub swivel
and carrier before removing the carrier.
