Assembly Procedure For T-Box; Input Hub Assembly - RHINO FC-0110 Operator's Manual

MAINTENANCE

Assembly Procedure for T-Box

Assembly can be accomplished by reversing the disassembly procedure. Figure 17
Step I.
Install spacer (4), gear (3), and bearing cones (8) onto shaft. If any shims were present between gear and
bearing or gear and spacer always reinstall at some location. Make sure that all pars are fully slated..
Step II.
Press new bearing cups into side caps (2).
Step Ill.
Assemble side cap (2) which is against the gear onto main housing using same shim pack as when
disassembled. If shim pack is not available use .030 inches of total shim thickness, Install capscrews and
tighten to recommended torque. Install three shaft assembly into housing with gear against the first side cap.
Step lV.
Assemble second side cap (2) onto main housing (7) using same shim pack as when disassembled or if not
available use .030 inch shim between cap and housing. Install capscrews (12) and tighten.
Step V.
Check bearing adjustment on rolling torque on cross shaft. If any play exists in shaft, shins must be removed
from side cap or cap opposite gear (3). Proper rolling torque should be 10 to 12 inch pounds. If preload is to
tight shims must be added under side cap opposite gear..

Input Hub Assembly

Press bearing cups into hub making sure they are fully seated. Press bearing cone onto shaft properly seated
against shaft shoulder. Assemble shaft into hub (12), add second bearing cone and gear. Apply a thin coat of
Liquid Lock (such as Locktite® #270) to the shaft threads. Assemble adjusting nut and tighten to insure that all
parts are seated. Then loosen the adjusting nut until a rolling torque of 10 to 12 inch pounds is reached. Insert
cotter pin through shaft and adjusting nut. Bend cotter pin ends around radial surface of nut. Do Not Bend
Cotter Over End of Shaft.
Step VI.
Assemble input hub into main housing using same shim pack as when disassembled. If not available use .020
inch shim to start. Install capscrews and tighten to recommended torque..
Step VII.
Check backlash between gear set. Backlash should be .012 to .024 inches. If backlash is to small add shims
between main housing and input hub. Remove shims for excessive backlash.
Step VIII.
Remove side caps one at a time, seal with sealer and reinstall. Repeat process for input hub assembly.
Gearbox is ready to be filled with good grade of NLGI000 Grease. See maintenance section for specifications.
