-- Clean any locking compound residue from all threaded holes using a tap.

-- Always replace the self locking nuts and bolts.

-- Make sure the alignment pins for centering the engine/transmission are installed inside the cylinder block. Install them if necessary.

If the alignment pins are missing, it will be difficult to shift, there will be clutch problems and the transmission may make noises (loose rattling).

-- Make sure the intermediate plate fits correctly on the engine.

-- Clean the splines on the input shaft and then lubricate them lightly with grease for clutch splinesG 000 100.

It must be possible to slide the clutch plate back and forth on the input shaft.

To install the transmission, the 3282 must be equipped with the 3282/39.

-- Align the arms on the 3282 so that they match up with the holes in the 3282/39.

-- Install the mounting elements -A and C- (3282/29) on the 3282/39 as illustrated.
