Positioning between clutch housing, gasket, and
gearshift housing can be facilitated by using
threaded pins; refer to Chapter 2.10.2.

3 Engage all gears. There must be a noticeable


excess shift travel for each gear.
Should the shifting angle not correspond to
the specified tolerances, it must be set using
an angle measuring equipment.
Finally tighten all hex head screws. 001969

Tightening torque = 23 Nm

CAUTION
The shift turret housing must be centered on the
transmission housing so that the play (excess shift
travel) is identical on both side and that a shifting
angle of 14°30” +2° is reached (refer to image).

6 Use a suitable hydraulic press to remove the


helical gears (4), (5) and (6) one at a time, due
to the high extraction force required.
The press-off force for each gear accounts for
up to 500 kN.

NOTE
In the case of the 8-speed versions, there´s a ring
instead of the helical gear (4).

NOTE
To prevent damage to the gears, support counter-
shaft and/or helical gears on a soft base.

NOTE
The inner rings on the taper roller bearings may be
damaged during the removal process. Therefore,
carry out an exact inspection and, if necessary, use
new tapered roller bearings.

max. 15 min. and place on countershaft.
Ensure axial abutment, if necessary, drive in

Depending on the transmission version, there can be


synchronizers with carbon or molybdenum layer on
the main shaft in the 1st/2nd gear and the 3rd/4th
gear.

Carbon version
The carbon version is only used in transmissions with servo unit.

032844 032845

Clutch body: Synchronizer ring:


The clutch body contains no oil groove. The carbon layer is applied in planiform manner.

Molybdenum version
The molybdenum version is used in transmissions without/with servo unit.

032846 032847

Clutch body: Synchronizer ring:


The clutch body contains a oil groove. The molybdenum layer is applied in a groove-like
manner.

Determining the Wear Limit for
Synchronizers

The condition of the synchronizer rings and


clutch bodies must be checked before the 1

synchronizers are assembled.


2
NOTE
Do not mix up synchronizer parts.

1 Place synchronizer ring (2) on associated


clutch body (1). Turn the synchronizer parts
and thereby ensure even and parallel contact
of tapers.

The wear limit of synchronizer rings on the


synchronizers of the main transmission and
splitter group is 0.8 mm, and 1.2 mm for the
range change group.

2 Use a feeler gage to measure the distance (X) 001999

between the clutch body and synchronizer


ring at twoopposing points. If the wear limit
falls below 0.8 or 1.2 mm respectively, the
synchronizer ring and clutch body must be
replaced.

3 Also check the condition of the synchronizer


parts (visual check). If the surface is corruga-
ted, replace synchronizer parts. Do not mix up
parts that have been checked together (mark
them).
