Shimming
Important
To avoid applying undue loads to the mating faces
during shimming, avoid adjusting the safety
stands placed under the engine and front frame
during disassembly.
60. Using two stacked shims (1), each at least
2.30 mm thick (Fig. 32), measure the gap between
the mating faces of the engine sump and front
frame.
Determine the thickness of shims to be fitted by
increasing, as required, the thickness of each shim
until they fit tightly in the gap.
Remark
Shimming is carried out using shims between 2.30
and 2.60 mm thick.
Inserting shims between the front frame and the
engine
61. Slightly loosen the screws (4) and bolts (1)
(Fig. 31).
62. Position the shims (1): the end E should be turned
downwards.
Insert them between the front frame and the
engine sump (Fig. 32).
63. Fit screws (2) and (3) (Fig. 33).
64. Tighten opposing nuts and all screws of the front
frame to a torque of 240 - 320 Nm in the following
order (2) (3) (4) (1) (Fig. 33).
65. Release the safety stands.
