Wheel Hubs and Drive Shafts

Removal
It is assumed that roadwheels are removed and the
machine is correctly supported.
Drain the oil from the chain case (see Section 3).
Slacken nut A and remove bolts B (4 off). Swing the hub
assembly towards the centre of the machine so that the
drive chain is at its slackest. Use a suitable bar to wedge
the hub.
Note: If the front hub is to be removed, both hubs on that
side must be rotated to slacken both chains.
Remove cover plate C. Lift off the appropriate chain from
the drive sprocket. Note that the front hub is driven by the
inner chain, therefore the rear chain will need to be lifted
off first.
Remove the nut B and pull the hub assembly out; remove
the chain from the sprocket. Remove the hub assembly
from the chassis. Remove and discard seal.
Replacement
Replacement is a reversal of the removal procedure.
A new 'O' ring must be fitted. Apply a smear of petroleum
jelly to the groove before fitting the ‘O’ ring, this will retain
the ring in the groove. Smear the hub mounting face and
‘O’ ring with petroleum jelly.
Fit the chain(s) over the drive sprocket and mount the hub
onto the machine. Fit nut B finger tight only.
Adjust the drive chain(s) (K
Adjustment ( T F-15)). When
the correct tension is achieved, fit and tighten bolts B and
tighten nut A.
