Determining Shim Thickness
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The required bearing tension is reached as follows:
The specified bearing pre-load is reached when determined measured value (0.25 mm) is subtracted from inserted adjustment shim (1.70 mm).
A constant figure of (0.40 mm) is added to the reading.
Example:
| Inserted adjusting shim | 1.70 mm |
| - measured value | 0.25 mm |
| + Preload (constant value) | 0.20 mm |
| Adjusting shim thickness | 1.65 mm |
-- Select the correct adjusting shim thickness according to the table. Refer to ADJUSTMENT SHIM TABLE .
-- Remove the transmission housing and remove the tapered roller bearing outer race from the transmission housing.
A -
Counter support, for example, Kukko support 22/2
B -

-- Remove the adjusting shim (1.70 mm) from the transmission housing.
