wrench and remove the cone from yoke. Slide yoke
onto the shaft and align hole for clamping cone with
annular groove of gearbox shaft. Reinstall cone and

connection. To remove the yoke, remove the
connecting cone and pull yoke off the shaft. If the
cone cannot be easily removed by hand, drive it out
from the other side using a hammer and punch.

complete assembly. Do not attempt to disassemble
the clamping cone.

split and can be removed from yoke. To install shield reverse steps. Insert shield over bearing tube noting that
tabs must be where yellow tabs are located. Rotate shield tab until yellow tab can be pushed into place and it
locks there.
