Bushes with 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.
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.
Assembly
Note:
1. Place the centre output shaft bearing (26) on
press bars, ensuring that the press bars support
the inner race of the bearing and the circlip
groove on the outer race is nearest to the press
bars.
