Inspection; Assembly - Triumph Rocket III Classic Service Manual

Transmission
Inspection
1. Examine all gears, bearings and bushes and thrust
washers for damage, distortion, chipped teeth and
wear beyond the service limits. Replace all defective
components and always use new circlips to assemble
the shaft.
2. Thoroughly clean the bearing housing and inspect
for damage, scoring and cracks. Replace the housing
if necessary.
Assembly
Note:
• Lubricate each gear, thrust washer and bush
with clean engine oil during assembly.
Note:
• The circlips used on the input shaft have a flat
side and an angled side. Illustrations
throughout the assembly text indicate which
orientation of each circlip is correct.
When using a press, always wear overalls, eye face and
hand protection. Objects such as bearings frequently
break-up under load and the debris caused during
break-up may cause damage and injury to unprotected
parts of the body.
Never wear loose clothing, which could become trapped
in the press and cause crushing injury to the hand, arms
or other parts of the anatomy.
oil holes must always be MISALIGNED
with the corresponding oil holes in the output shaft.
Reduced oil pressure and gear lubrication may result
from alignment of the oil holes, which would cause
premature wear of engine and transmission
components.
·ACaution
Removing the input shaft bearing from the shaft and its
housing will damage the bearing and snap ring. Never
re-use removed bearings or snap rings as use of
damaged or weakened components could lead to
engine and transmission damage. Also, check for
damage to the housing itself.
