SECTION 13
FITTING SPIRAL BEVEL WHEEL (CROWNWHEEL) AND DIFFERENTIAL INTO
BEVEL CASING
Apply a thin bead of ' Loctite 641 ', using correct applicator to give a 1/8 " wide band, into bevel casing
13.1
strap bores (12). See fig. no. 6.
This is to prevent possibility of diff. bearing cups (13 & 45) spinning in service.
Note :-
Assembly and setting procedures are to be completed immediately so as to avoid the
' Loctite ' hardening, and preventing adjustment of bearing cups (14 & 44).
