GEARCASE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
New gearcase screws are treated
with a thread-locking material. Apply Triple-Guard
grease to threads to ensure that the correct
clamping force is achieved when tightening—If a
previously installed screw is re-used, use a wire
brush to remove any old thread-locking material or
corrosion and lubricate threads with Triple-Guard
grease.
Install screws and washers and tighten to a torque
of:
•
3/8 in. screws – 26 to 28 ft. lbs. (35 to 38 N·m)
•
7/16 in. screws – 45 to 50 ft. lbs. (61 to 68 N·m)
