906 against one tooth of the ring gear at its largest
diameter, square with the differential
shaft.
Using the torque measuring tool B.Vi. 906, press a
ring gear tooth to rotate the differential
slightly in
the same direction
as the bearing was installed.
(Bearing roller-to-cage play will give a false reading
if rotated in the opposite direction.)
Release the torque measuring tool and read the
torque shown by the follow-up
pointer (Red).
Screw the differential
ring nut in or out to obtain a
reading of: 2 to 2.5 daNm.
NOTE: The specification 2 to 2.5 daNm represents
the
pressure required
for
crown
wheel
movement as measured with tool B.Vi. 906;
NOT the actual torque applied at tool B.Vi.
