GEARBOX REPAIR - STYLE B

Gearbox Removal From Cutter

NOTE: Gearbox is heavy: do not attempt to move with- out mechanical assistance.

1.Disconnect and remove the rear driveline from the gearbox.

2.Remove cotter pin and nut from vertical shaft and remove crossbar (see page 36).

3.Remove the six bolts that attach gearbox to cutter and remove gearbox.

Disassembly

Refer to Figure 14.

1.Remove top cover (22) from gearbox and pour out gear oil.

2.Remove oil cap (20) (to be replaced).

3.Remove snap ring (10) and shim (13) from input shaft (3).

4.Support gearbox in hand press and push on input shaft (3) to remove bearing (7).

5.Remove six cap screws (23) and top cover (22) from housing. Remove gear (1) from inside housing.

6.Remove oil seal (19) from front of housing (to be replaced).

7.Remove snap ring (10) and shim (13) from front of housing (2).

8.Remove input bearing (7) by using a punch and hammer from outside of housing.

9.Support housing in vise in a horizontal position.

10.The castle nut (15), cotter pin (25), and hub are already removed with the stump jumper/crossbar. Remove the protective seal (8), and oil seal (18).

11.Remove cotter pin (9), castle nut (14), and shim (17) from output shaft (4).

12.Remove output shaft (4) by using a punch and hammer and tap on top to drive down. Remove gear (5) and shim (16) from inside housing.

13.Remove bottom bearing (21) by using a punch and hammer from the top, outside the housing.

14.Support housing upside down (top cover surface) and remove bearing (6) by using a punch and hammer from the bottom side of the housing.

15.Inspect gears for broken teeth and wear. Some wear is normal and will show on loaded side. Forged gear surfaces are rough when new. Check that wear pattern is smooth.

16.Inspect vertical and horizontal shafts for grooves, nicks, or bumps in the areas where the seals seat. Resurface any damage with emery cloth.

17.Inspect housing and caps for cracks or other damage.

Assembly

Refer to Figure 14.

1.Clean housing, paying specific attention to areas where gaskets will be installed.

2.Wash housing and all components thoroughly. Select a clean area for gearbox assembly. Replace all seals, bearings, and gaskets. All parts must be clean and lightly oiled before reassembling.

3.Insert both output bearings (6 & 21) in the housing, using a round tube of the correct diameter and a hand press.

4.Slide output shaft (4) through both bearings (6 &

21)until it rests against top bearing (6).

5.Slide shim (16) over output shaft (4).

6.Press gear (5) onto output shaft (4) and secure with shim (17), castle nut (14), and cotter pin (9).

7.Apply grease to lower seal lips (18) and press seal (18) over output shaft (4), using a tube of the correct diameter. Be sure not to damage the seal lip.

8.Press in housing so that seal is recessed. Press protective seal (8) until seated flush with housing. Verify that the seal (8) is seated correctly.

9.Press bearing (7) into the housing, using a round tube of the correct diameter and a hand press. Secure with shim (13) and snap ring (10).

10.Secure snap ring (11) on input shaft (3) if not already secure.

11.Place gear (1) through top of housing and align gear (1) and gear (5) so that gear teeth are a match.

12.While holding gear (1) in place, slide input shaft (3) through gear (1) and bearing (7). Align splines on shaft (3) and gear (1).

13.Slide shim (12) over input shaft (3) and press bearing (7) onto input shaft (3), using a round tube of the correct diameter and a hand press.

14.Slide shim (13) over input shaft (3) and secure with snap ring (10).

15.Check input shaft end float by moving the input shaft (3) by hand. If end float is higher than 0.012", insert shim between input shaft (3) and rear bearing (7). Repeat until end float is less than 0.012". Check rotational torque by hand. The torque should be less than 2.2 lbs-inch.
