Power Take-Off Shaft - Husqvarna PT26D Workshop Manual

7. Lubricate the belt tensioner's axle bush-
ing with corrosion inhibiting grease or
copper-based lubricant and thread it in
the belt tensioner.
8. Assemble in reverse order. Tightening
torque for screws as set out in the table.

power take-off shaft

1. Remove the propeller shaft for the angle
gear.
2. Remove the belt tensioner and pry the belts
off the power take-off shaft's belt pulley.
3. Remove the two lock nuts (105) for the
belt pulley.
4. Remove the belt pulley from the axle.
Take care of the key (94). Risk of fretting
corrosion and cutting. Lubricate with thin
oil and knock back the belt pulley. The belt
pulley or axle may need to be sacrificed.
5. Remove the screws (109+110) holding
the rear bearing in the chassis.
6. Remove the two lock screws for the front
bearing. If the bearing has not seized up
on the axle, the axle can be knocked
back. If this is not possible, the bearing
can follow the axle backwards after the
screws holding the axle in the chassis
have been removed.
7. Slide the axle out backwards. If neces-
sary, fold away the hydraulic hoses so
that the front bearing can pass.
8. Replace the bearing if necessary. The
bearings have two locking screws each
against the axle. Lubricate the bearing
settings on the axle with copper-based
lubricant or anti-corrosive grease. The
bearings' locking screws may not be
tightened in this position.
9. Assemble in reverse order, lubricate the
seating for the belt pulley and key with
copper-based lubricant or anti-corrosive
grease. It is important that the screws
holding the bearings in the chassis are
tightened before the bearings' locking
screws are tightened, so that the bear-
ings are not subjected to axial load.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The screws holding the bearings in the
chassis must be tightened before the bear-
ings' locking screws are tightened, so that
the bearings are not subjected to axial load.
Tightening torque according to the table.
10. Lubricate the bearings with lubricant spray.
