Shim Thickness "S 1 ", Determining

Formula: "S 1 " = "S total " - "S 2 "

Example:  
  Total shim thickness "S total " for "S 1 " + "S 2 " 2.22 mm
- Shim thickness "S 2 " 0.77 mm
= Shim thickness "S 1 " 1.45 mm

-- Determine the shim according to the table. Refer to the Parts Information for the part number.
