21-12. Installation of PTO Adapter.

a.

Install gasket (fig. 21-6) same thickness as removed.

b.

Mount PTO adapter on transmission and secure with four capscrews. Tighten to 30 Ib-ft

(41 N•m) torque.

Check gear backlash as follows: Mount dial indicator, as shown in figure 21-8, and measure

back&h of small gear in the adapter. Should be 0.006-0.014.

Figure 21-8. Check Gear Backlash.

NOTE

Backlash may be adjusted by adding or sub-

tracting thickness of gasket (fig. 21-6).

Adding gasket thickness increases backlash;

subtracting decreases backlash. A thin gasket

(0.010) changes backlash approximately 0.006.
