DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY (Continued)
(19) Install thrust washer in front annulus (Fig.
161). Align flat on washer with flat on planetary
hub. Also be sure washer tab is facing up.
(20) Install front annulus snap ring (Fig. 162). Use
snap ring pliers to avoid distorting ring during
installation. Also be sure ring is fully seated.
(21) Install planetary selective snap ring with
snap ring pliers (Fig. 163). Be sure ring is fully
seated.
(22) Turn planetary geartrain assembly over so
driving shell is facing workbench. Then support
geartrain on wood block positioned under forward
end of output shaft. This allows geartrain compo-
nents to move forward for accurate end play check.
(23) Check planetary geartrain end play with
feeler gauge (Fig. 164). Gauge goes between shoulder
on output shaft and end of rear annulus support.
(24) Geartrain end play should be 0.12 to 1.22 mm
(0.005 to 0.048 in.). If end play is incorrect, snap ring
(or thrust washers) may have to be replaced. Snap
ring is available in three different thicknesses for
adjustment purposes.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION
GOVERNOR AND PARK GEAR
Thoroughly clean all the governor parts in a suit-
able cleaning solution but do not use any type of
caustic cleaning agents.
The governor weight components (Fig. 165) and the
governor valve (Fig. 166), must slide freely in their
bores when clean and dry. Minor surface scratches
and burrs can be smoothed with crocus cloth.
The aluminum governor valve and outer weight
have a hard coating on them. Check condition of this
coating carefully. Do not reuse either part if the coat-
ing is damaged.
