Part 2

Low and Reverse Brake Clearance Measurement/Adjustment (Continued)

6. Select the appropriate snap ring from the following table:






Range = D + G
D : Average value of low and reverse brake clearance
G : Thickness of removed snap ring

Note
Example
D : Average value of low and reverse brake clearance is 1.879 mm {0.07398 in}
G : Thickness of removed snap ring is 2.305 mm {0.09075 in}
Range = 1.879 mm {0.07398 in} + 2.305 mm {0.09075 in} = 4.184 mm {0.16472 in}, the selected snap ring has a thickness of 2.4 mm {0.094 in}.

7. Assemble the selected snap ring using the following procedure:

NOTE: Snap ring size: Outer diameter approx. 198.0 mm {7.795 in}






1. Tighten the SST (49 G019 029) until the snap ring groove of the transaxle case comes out.

A : Snap ring groove

CAUTION: If the SST (49 G019 029) is tightened with excessive force, surrounding parts could be damaged. Stop tightening the SST when the snap ring groove of the transaxle case comes out.

NOTE: Lock the SST (49 G019 027) against rotation using a flathead screwdriver and tighten the SST (49 G019 029).






2. Assemble the snap ring to the position shown in the figure.

CAUTION:
- Assemble the snap ring so that the end gap of the snap ring is in the area shown in the figure.
- After assembling the snap ring, verify that the snap ring is securely inserted into the bottom of the snap ring groove.

3. Loosen the SST (49 G019 029) and remove the SSTs.

NOTE: Lock the SST (49 G019 027) against rotation using a flathead screwdriver and loosen the SST (49 G019 029).

8. Perform the low and reverse brake clearance measurement from Step 3. (See Low and Reverse Brake Clearance Measurement.)
