Service Notes
1. A large egg flat (the type that restaurants get

alignment and positioning of the parts. As each part
is removed, set it into one of the depressions in the
egg flat with the same orientation it had when on the
transmission shaft. See Figure 13. This is an easy
way to retain the correct relationship of all parts.
2. The snap rings fit tightly on the transmission
shafts. They usually become distorted during re-
moval. All snap rings must be replaced during as-
sembly.
3. Snap rings will turn and fold over, making re-
moval and installation difficult. To ease replace-

while at the same time holding the back of the ring
with pliers (Figure 14).
4. Install a snap ring so its flat side faces away from
the direction of thrust. See Figure 15.
