screw will lock the snorkel tube and not allow for
backlash setting adjustment.

snorkel tool (PA-50231) until the snorkel gear and
pinion gear have ‘zero’ backlash.
NOTICE
DO NOT overtighten the snorkel tube. At the 'zero'
backlash position, you should still be able to turn the
snorkel shaft using your fingers, but it will feel rough
and may have some tight spots.
