Scheme 60
- Insert sun wheels with thinnest shims (0.5 mm).
- Insert planet wheels with thrust washers and press in shaft. NOTE: Do not now interchange bevel gears and thrust washers!
- Press planet wheels outwards and check play of sun wheels by hand (arrows).
- Adjust play by inserting an appropriate shim. See SHIM THICKNESS CHART . Specification: max. 0.10 mm NOTE: The adjustment is also correct if no further play is perceptible, although it is still possible to rotate the differential bevel gears (arrow).
- Determine shim from DIFFERENTIAL PLANET WHEEL SHIM THICKNESS AVAILABILITY table. The following shims are available: DIFFERENTIAL PLANET WHEEL SHIM THICKNESS AVAILABILITY Shim thickness (mm) 0.50 0.70 0.90 0.60 0.80 1.00
