IL•I INSPECTION AND REPAIR
Make the necessary repair or parts replacement if
wear, damage or any other abnormal conditions are
found during inspection.
Wash
all parts thoroughly in clean solvent. Be sure all
old
lubricant, metallic particles, dirt, or foreign material
are removed from the surfaces
of every part. Apply
compressed
air to each oil feed port and channel in
each case
half to remove any obstructions or cleaning
solvent residue.

GEARS
• Inspect all gear teeth for signs of excessive wear
'--" or damage and check all gear splines for burrs,
nicks,
wear or damage. Remove minor nicks or
scratches on an oil stone. Replace any part
exhibiting excessive wear or damage.
GEAR INSIDE DIAMETER (Fig. 7D-50}
• Use an inside dial indicator to measure the gear
inside diameter.
• If the measured value exceeds the specified limit,
the gear
must be replaced.

BEARINGS
• Inspect the condition of all needles, and ball
bearings. Wash bearings thoroughly in a cleaning
solvent.
Apply compressed air to bearings.
W NOTE:
Do not allow the bearings to spin. Turn them
slowly by hand. Spinning bearings may damage
the
rollers.
Lubricate bearings with a light oil and check them
for roughness by slowly turning the race by hand.
