1. Bearing drag for input shaft (Item 8) is adjusted by
amount of gaskets (Item 7) used between thru cap
(Item 14), and housing machined surfaces.
2. Put two 0.015 in. gaskets on machined surface of
housing, then install shaft and thru cap assembly in
housing so bearing cone (Item 4) on shaft assembly and
bearing cup (Item 3) in blank cap (Item 2) are mating.
Align holes in caps with holes in gaskets and housing.
3. Install capscrews and tighten.

bearing drag when turned. If shaft turns hard, cap must
be removed and gasket(s) need to be added. If shaft
has no bearing drag, or has end play, thru cap (Item 14)
must be removed and gasket(s) taken out. thru cap must
be adjusted to where shaft has no end play and only a
slight amount of bearing drag.
