♦ Do not over-tension the circlips.

tronic Catalogue of Original Parts .
♦ Circlips must be positioned in the base of the groove.

flow -arrow-.
Screws, nuts
♦ Slacken the bolts and nuts against the tightening sequence.
♦ Slacken and tighten nuts and bolts for attaching covers and
housings without tightening sequence diagonally across in
stages.
♦ Replace the self-locking screws and nuts.
♦ Tightening torques apply for non-oiled nuts and bolts.
♦ Clean the threaded holes into which self-locking screws or
screws with locking agent were screwed in (using e.g. a screw-
tap). Otherwise there is a risk that the bolts will shear at the
next disassembling.
♦ It is important to ensure at all bolted connections that the con‐
tact surfaces as well as the nuts and bolts are waxed only after
being installed, should this be necessary.
Bearings
♦ Insert moist all bearings into the gearbox with gear oil.
♦ Before installing, heat the inner rings of the bearing on a heat‐
ing plate or with the induction heater unit -VAS 6414- to
approx. 100°C, when installing press in axial and play-free up
to the stop.
♦ The temperature can be checked with a temperature measur‐
ing instrument.
♦ Do not mix up the outer and inner races of bearings of the
same size.
♦ Always jointly replace tapered-roller bearings on the same
shaft and use products of the same manufacturer.
♦ Always position needle bearing with the lettered side (thicker
end) towards the drift pin.
