(5) Tighten the LH retainer until contact is felt
while rotating the shaft. Then loosen the RH
retainer. Keep tightening the LH retainer and
loosening the RH retainer until the pinion shaft
can no longer be turned. This is the ªzeroº state.
G3M0884
(6) After the ªzeroº state is established, back off
the LH retainer 3 notches and secure it with the
lock plate. Then back off the RH retainer and
retighten until it stops. Repeat this procedure
several times. Tighten the RH retainer 1-3/4
notches further. This sets the preload. Finally,
secure the retainer with its lock plate.

NOTE:
Turning the retainer by one tooth changes the
backlash about 0.05 mm (0.0020 in).
