Gear Set, Adjusting Sequence
If drive pinion and gear ring have to be adjusted, the following sequence is recommended for maximum efficiency
- Determine total shim thickness "Stot" (S total dimension) for S1 + S2 for the specified pre-tension of tapered roller bearings for differential.
- Determine total shim thickness "S3" so that the drive pinion is installed in the same location as on the test machine during production.
- Distribute total shim thickness S total S1 + S2, so that the specified backlash between ring gear and drive pinion is maintained.
Note. Overview of components and shims. See SHIM LOCATION .
