• Before selecting the forward gear shim (T1) and reverse gear shims (T2), make sure to select the pin-
ion shims (T3).
• When assembling the lower unit to measure the backlash after selecting the pinion shims (T3), do not
apply gear oil, grease, or sealant to the parts.
• When assembling the lower unit after shimming is completed, make sure to apply gear oil, grease,
and sealant to the specified areas.
