11. ADJUST DIFFERENTIAL CASE PRELOAD
(a) Install the new lock nut to the output shaft.
(b) Turn the output shaft right and left two or three times to
allow the bearings to settle
(c) Using a torque wrench, measure the preload.
Preload (at starting):
New bearing (Add output shaft preload)
2.0 ± 4.1 kg±cm
(1.7 ± 3.6 in.±Ib, 0.2 ± 0.4 N±m)
Reused bearing (Add output shaft preload)
1.3 ± 2.5 kg±cm
(1.1 ± 2.2 in.±Ib, 0.1 ± 0.2 N±m)
If the preload is not within specification, select the thrust
washers.
HINT: The total preload will change about 12 kg±cm
(0.9 1.7 in.±lb, 0.1 ± 0.2 N±m) with each shim thickness. 8. INSTALL OUTPUT SHAFT REAR TAPER ROLLER

PRECAUTIONS
When working with FIPG material, you must ±be observe the following.
wUsing a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all the old packing (FIPG) material from the
gasket surfaces.
wThoroughly clean all components to remove all the loose material.
wClean both sealing surfaces with a non±residue solvent.
e Apply the seal packing in 1.2 mm (0.04) in.) bead along the sealing surface.
wParts must be assembled within 10 minutes of application. Otherwise, the packing (FIPG)
material must be removed and reapplied. ,
