Gearbox fasteners are installed with thread lock
compound and require significant leverage to
loosen for the duration of thread engagement.
Use of new gearbox fasteners with new thread
lock compound is required for proper installation
.

Gearbox might separate from gearbox spacer. If
this occurs, remove battery pack (page 3-3) to
gain access to bottom inside edge of spacer. To
remove, tap inside edge of spacer. Do not pry
aluminum-to-aluminum surfaces to prevent
surface damage; preserve gasket integrity for
reuse. If gasket is damaged or becomes
damaged through removal or installation,
replacement of the damaged gasket is required.
