5 General repair instructions

which can otherwise be found in the relevant sections of the man‐
ual, are summarised here. They apply for this particular workshop
manual.

Note

Refer to procedure “Removing gearbox” for required special tools


⇒ page 289 .

– All threaded holes into which self-locking bolts are to be


screwed must be cleaned of residual locking fluid with a thread
chaser.
– Always renew self-locking nuts and bolts.
– Check whether dowel sleeves for aligning engine and gearbox
are fitted in cylinder block and install if necessary.
If dowel sleeves are not fitted, difficulties shifting gears, clutch
problems and possible noises from the gearbox (rattling of gears
which are not engaged) could occur.
– Ensure that intermediate plate is correctly seated on engine.

Note the following before pressing in:

♦ Selector forks engage correctly in locking collars.


♦ Check dimension -a- for output shaft teeth.

Note

♦ Due to different spline heights, dimension -a-, output shafts of


individual gearboxes have different lengths.
♦ A shim - T10083/1- (3 mm thick) may have to be fitted on the
input shaft to ensure that the input shaft and the output shaft
are always pressed in evenly.
♦ This is the reason why dimension -a- for output shaft teeth
must be measured.

Dimension -a- = 30.6 mm

Note

♦ Due to different spline heights, dimension -a-, output shafts of


individual gearboxes have different lengths (shown here with
shafts installed).
♦ To ensure that bearing support is always evenly pressed onto
shafts, it is necessary for shafts always to be inserted evenly
into thrust block - T10083- .
♦ If necessary, insert a shim - T10083/1- (3 mm thick) into
mounting hole for input shaft ⇒ page 354 .
♦ This is the reason why dimension -a- for output shaft teeth
must be measured.

Dimension -a- = 30.6 mm
