The following procedures assume the rear axle assem-
bly has been removed from the machine (see Rear Axle
Assembly Removal in this section).
Removal (Fig. 30)
1. Remove the cover plate, gasket and gear case as-
sembly from the axleassembly.Remove the gasket and
any remaining gasket material.
2. Remove the retaining rings and the driven gear from
the input shaft/pinion gear.
3. Remove input shaft/pinion gear assembly from the
gear case. Remove the shims and bearing case O-
rings.
4. Release the stake washer and remove the locknut.
Remove and discard the stake washer.
5. Drive the input shaft/pinion gear out from the outer
bearing cone and bearing case. Remove and discard
the oil seal and O-ring.
6. Inspect all gears, shafts, bearings, spacers and
cases for damage and wear. Replace components as
necessary.
NOTE: Replacement input shaft/pinion gears are only
available in matched ring and pinion sets.
Installation (Fig. 30)
NOTE: When installing new bearing cones, press only
on the inner race of the bearing cone.
1. If the inner bearing cone was removed, press a new
bearing cone alltheway onto the input shaft/piniongear.
2. Place the shaft and bearing assembly in the bearing
case and install the outer bearing cone.
NOTE: The bearings must be completely seated.
There should be no input shaft/pinion gear end play.
3. Coat a new oil seal with grease and install as shown
(Fig. 31). The seal should be installed with the garter
spring towards the hydraulic motor location.
4. Coat new O-ring with grease. Install O-ring in the oil
seal collar and install the collar.
5. Install a new stake washer. Install the lock nut finger
tight.
6. Setthe bearing preloadbysecuringthe bearing case
in a vise. Thread a M12 x 1.5 hex head cap screw into
the splined end of the input shaft/pinion gear and slowly
tighten the lock nut until 4 to 6 in-lb (0.4 to 0.7 N--m) of
force is required to rotate the input shaft/pinion gear in
the bearing case.
