Section III. REPAIR (MODEL 3052)
3-7. General.
a.
Clean the exterior of the transmission in
accordance with Chapter 2, section III of this manual.
b.
Refer to Chapter 2, section II of this manual for
troubleshooting procedures.
c.
When a transmission is repaired, it must be
disassembled completely so that the parts may be
thoroughly cleaned and inspected for wear or damage.
Refer to Chapter 2, section III of this manual for
instructions on the repair and rebuilding of the
transmissions.
d.
Disassembly is accomplished in two stages: first,
disassembly into subassemblies; second, disassembly of
the subassemblies. Always use separate containers for
the parts of each subassembly. If more than one
transmission is being rebuilt at the same time,
provision must be made for keeping the parts of each
transmission separate. This is especially important
when some parts are to be used again.
e.
Disassembly of the transmission is accomplished
by following logical step-by-step procedures.
Paragraph 3-8 provides disassembly to the
subassembly level, paragraph 3-9 provides the
disassembly procedures from the subassembly level to
the piece part. Assembly procedures are given only
where special attention to a part or assembly is
required or needed. The assembly of the transmission
is the exact opposite of disassembly except where
otherwise specified for clarity. Always use new gaskets
and seals during assembly.
