6) Tighten the LH retainer by rotating the shaft until
resistance is felt. Then loosen the retainer RH.
Keep tightening the retainer LH, and loosening the
retainer RH until the pinion shaft no longer be
turned. This is the “zero” state.
7) After the “zero” state is established, back off the
retainer LH 3 notches and secure it with the lock
plate. Then back off the retainer RH and retighten
until it stops. Rotate the drive pinion 2 or 3 times.
Tighten the retainer RH further 1-3/4 notches. This
sets the preload. Finally, secure the retainer with its
lock plate.
NOTE:
Turning the retainer by one tooth changes the
backlash approx. 0.05 mm (0.0020 in).
8) Turn the drive pinion several times using ST1,
and check to see if the backlash is within the spec-
ification using ST2, ST3, ST4 and ST5.
