shaft.
NOTE:

.

•

When pushing the output shaft in, take care that the
center support does not move.

•

When pushing the output flange in, use the special
tool MB998304.

(3) Reinstall by selecting the thrust race number 8 installed

by the procedure (13) so that the end play of output shaft
becomes the standard value.
NOTE: Refer to the thickness recorded in step 13.

Standard value: 0.25

− 0.55 mm (0.0098 − 0.0217 inch)

(4) Measure the end play again, and confirm that it is within

the standard value.
NOTE: Carry this step out with special tool MB991603
and dial gauge installed.

18.Using the following steps, select the snap ring for fixing the

center support.

(1) Install the snap ring used for fixing the center support

(3) Select the snap ring for fixing the center support installed

in step 18 (1) so that the end play of the center support is
at the standard value. Then, reassemble.

Standard value: 0

− 0.16 mm (0 − 0.0063 inch)

(4) Measure the end play again, and confirm that it is within

the standard value.

19.Using the following steps, select the snap ring for adjusting

the brake reaction plate end play and second brake end
play, and the pressure plate for adjusting the low/reverse
brake end play.

(1) Install the wave spring onto the low/reverse brake piston.

(2) Install special tool MB991632 onto the position shown in

the illustration instead of the pressure plate for the
low/reverse brake. Install the six brake disc, five brake
plate and snap ring.

CAUTION

Pay close attention to the assembly direction of the reac-
tion plate.

(3) Install the reaction plate and snap ring that was used.
(4) Install a dial gauge onto special tool (MD998913) so that

the end contacts the brake reaction plate. Measure the
end play by moving special tool MB991632.

(5) Select the snap ring installed in step 19 (3) so that the

end play is within the standard value. Then, reassemble.

Standard value: 0

− 0.16 mm (0 − 0.0063 inch)

(6) Measure the end play again, and confirm that it is within

the standard value.

discs and three brake plates.

(8) Install the return spring, second brake and snap ring.

(9) Install a dial gauge onto special tool MD998913 so the

end contacts the special tool. Move special tool
MB991632 and measure the moving amount. Select a
pressure plate with a thickness that corresponds to the
measured moving amount from the following table.

Standard value: 1.49

− 1.95 mm (0.0587 − 0.0768 inch)

(10)Remove the snap ring, second brake, return spring and

special tool MB991632 installed in step (8).

(11)Install the pressure plate selected in step (9), and install

the return spring, second brake and snap ring again.
