Forward Gear Bearing Adaptor Assembly
INSPECTION
1. Thoroughly clean the forward gear bearing adaptor with a suitable solvent and dry it
using compressed air.
NOTE: The condition of the bearing surfaces on the forward gear in the areas that the
bearings of the bearing adaptor and the thrust bearing rides, is an indication of the condi-
tion of the respective bearings. Replace the bearing(s) if the surface of the gear and/or
the thrust washer is pitted, grooved, scored, worn unevenly, discolored from overheating
or has embedded metal particles.
2. Assemble the forward gear to the bearing adaptor. Inspect them for excessive move-
ment or roughness by rotating the gear in the adaptor. Replace the bearing in the
adaptor if either of these conditions exist.
3. Inspect the adaptor for other signs of excessive wear or damage. Replace the adaptor
if any are found.
