Output Gear Pinion Depth Adjustment - Polaris RZR 170 2009 Service Manual

Output Gear Pinion Depth Adjustment

NOTE: This procedure sets pinion depth only. There
are no provisions for backlash adjustment.
1. Remove O-ring from output shaft housing (re-install for
final assembly).
2. Remove any existing shims from housing.
3. Install housing in transmission case. The pinion gear and
output gear should bottom against each other, leaving a gap
between housing and transmission case that can be
measured with a feeler gauge at (A).

4. Hold gears in bottomed position by applying light pressure
to the center of the output shaft. Measure the gap with a
feeler gauge and record.
CVT / TRANSMISSION
5. The specified pinion depth is .012 - .016 inch (0.3mm-
0.4mm) from the bottomed position. Therefore, you will
need to install a shim pack with a thickness of .012 - .016
inch (0.3mm-0.4mm) plus the gap measured in Step 4.
Example: Gap between housing and case is .020 inch (0.50
mm) with no shims installed and gears bottomed.
To obtain correct pinion depth, a shim pack with a thickness
totaling .032 - .036 inch (.8-.9mm) must be installed.
