DISASSEMBLY
(1) Install suitable bolts and washers in intermedi-
ate plate (Fig. 51). Then clamp plate and gear assem-
bly in vise. Use enough washers to prevent bolts

fifth gear and thrust ring with feeler gauge. Clear-
ance should be 0.10 to 0.40 mm (0.003 to 0.019 in.).

to be replaced.

ring (Fig. 52).
