Fig. 1 Inserting spring in sliding gear:





The bent end of the spring (arrow) must be hooked in the hole in the sliding gear.

Fig. 2 Checking synchro-ring for wear:





- Press synchro-ring into locking collar and measure gap a with a feeler gauge at positions -A-, -13- and -C-.
- Add the measured values and divide by 3.
^ The calculated value must not be less than 0.5 mm.

Fig. 3 Determining thickness of circlip:





^ Synchro-hub pressed onto stop
- Determine the thickest circlip that will just fit and install it.

Note: The opening of circlip must align with groove in synchro-hub.

Allocate circlip using spare part catalog.





The following circlips are available:

Fig. 4 Pressing off synchro hub for 3rd and 4th gear:




Fig. 5 Installation position of synchro-hub:





Oil groove in synchro-hub -arrow 1- must align with oil drilling -arrow 2- in input shaft

Fig. 6 Pressing on synchro hub for 3rd and 4th gear:





- Heat synchro-hub to approximately 100°C, position and press home.

WARNING: Wear protective gloves!

- Determine circlip and install.

Fig. 7 Driving spring sleeve into input shaft:





- Guide a 9 mm diameter drift -A- into oil drilling and drive spring sleeve -B- in until it touches drift.
