Description and Specifications
General Information
The SP111, SPE111, SP211, SPE211, SP311, RFD111 and RFD211 Series
Twin Disc Power Take-Offs are engine-mounted power take-offs that use cast
iron one-piece or two-piece housings and contain an integral clutch 11 1/2
inches in diameter. The engine drives the clutch through a drive ring that is
bolted to the engine flywheel and connected to the clutch through internal teeth
that mesh with external teeth on the clutch friction plate(s). Clutch engagement
and disengagement for most units is accomplished by use of the external hand
lever assembly. Some units may use other actuation methods.
Main bearings are lubricated and cooled with oil or grease, depending upon
the design specifications. Most units use pilot bearings that are pre-lubricated
and sealed for life, although some may require periodic relubrication. Those
that require periodic relubrication are lubricated through a grease fitting located
in the output end or side of the clutch shaft.
SPE models are designed with release mechanism features and a positive
clearance mechanism to provide extended service and limited attendance
advantages.

Filling the Main Bearing Cavity during initial assembly.

pages.)
Grease Lubrication:
Hand-pack the bearings before assembly. Hand-packing requires that the roller
elements and bearing races be coated with grease. After assembly, add grease
through the grease fitting until grease escapes from the outboard labyrinth seal
all around the shaft. Do Not Overfill. Always rotate the shaft while adding grease
to the bearing cavity.
Oil Lubrication SP211OP and SPE211OP Series:
Fill with oil through the fitting at the top of the bearing carrier until the oil level
registers full on the oil level gauge.
Oil Lubrication SP311OP Series (BOM SP311P306, for example):
Oil is supplied through a hose connected to the (orifice) fitting at the top of the
bearing carrier. Oil is supplied whenever the engine is running. Oil drains from
the bearing carrier through a hose connected at the bottom of the bearing carrier.
Filling the Main Bearing Cavity during periodic maintenance.

Refer to the information contained in the Maintenance section of this manual.
PTO Deflection
PTO deflection due to loads imposed by the application should not exceed
0.254 mm (0.010 in.). Deflection should be measured at the support plate pilot
with the dial indicator base mounted on a rigid part of the engine. See the
illustration in Installation Tips in the Installation section of this manual.

Installation Tips
Tapered Roller Bearing Adjustment
1.
Tapered roller bearing end play adjustment is different in SP211, SP311

and RFD211 Series Power Take-Offs for side load applications than it
is for in-line applications. Insure that the adjustment is correct for the
application.
2.
All SP111, SPE111, SP211, SPE211, SP311, RFD111 and RFD211

Series Power Take-Offs are manufactured at Twin Discs factory with
the tapered roller bearing end play adjusted for side-load application.
3.
Tests and controlled studies indicate that the tapered roller bearing end
play adjustment for SP111, SPE111 and RFD111 Series Power-TakeOffs does not need to be changed to use the PTO for in-line applications.
No readjustment is necessary.
4.
Tapered roller bearing end play in SP111, SPE111, SP211, SPE211,

SP311, RFD111 and RFD211Series Power Take-Offs used for in-line
applications must be adjusted to specifications shown in Tapered
Roller Bearing End Play in the Description and Specifications section
of this manual.
a.
For model SP211, SPE211, SP311 and RFD211 PTOs that

are rebuilt or remanufactured : Adjust the end play to proper
specifications for in-line applications at the time of assembly.
Follow instructions contained in the Assembly section of this
manual.
37
Installation
b.
For SP211, SPE211, SP311 and RFD211 Series PTOs

manufactured in Twin Discs factory: Readjust the factory
end play setting prior to installation on the engine for in-line
applications. Most SP211, SPE211, SP311 and RFD211 Series
Power Take-Offs have a tag attached to the housing which
contains instructions that must be followed. Readjust the end
play setting as instructed.
Figure 5. Factory Instruction Tag for End Play Adjustment
Alignment
5.
The flywheel and flywheel housing alignment must be within specifications.

Perform the measurements shown in Prior To Installation in this
Installation section.
6.
Avoid excessive misalignment between the engine and PTO. Check

the following if abnormal wear of parts exists:
a.
Excessive loads tend to deflect parts to which PTOs are mounted.

A dial indicator can be mounted on a rigid part of the engine or
independently on the foundation to determine deflection under
actual operating conditions. See Support Plate, Belt or chain
tension/Allowable Side Load Pulls and Deflection Caused
by Side Load Pulls in this Installation section and information
contained in the Description and Specifications section
regarding these issues
b.
Readings taken before the drive is installed with the engine

standing still and when under operating conditions (with the engine
off and all belts, chains, driveshafts and/or support plates attached
and secured with bolts torqued to specifications) will indicate
the extent of deflection. In no case should the deflection exceed
0.254 mm. (0.010 in.) (T.I.R.) at the bearing carrier.
Note: The dial indicator should never be applied with the engine
running. This is unsafe and could result in damage to the
dial indicator.
38
Installation
7.
In a u-joint-type installation, to realize the longest possible life of the

power take-off bearings, the best possible alignment must be maintained
between the center line of the power take-off shaft and the center line of
the driven unit shaft. See information contained in Alignment-U-JointType Installation in this Installation section.
8.
In side-load installations, alignment between the driveR and driveN

pulleys must be carefully established and maintained. See Position
and Measure Alignment of the Sheave in this Installation section.
Drive Ring
9.
The drive ring must be properly installed. See information in Drive Ring
Installation in this Installation section.
Pilot Bearings
10.
Ball-type pilot bearings and Roller-type pilot bearings must be installed

properly. See Ball-Type Pilot Bearing Installation or Roller-Type Pilot
Bearing Installation in this Installation section.
Support Plate
11.
When mounting the engine and Power Take Off in the machine, a
customer-supplied support plate may be required to support the output
end of the pto housing. See the information about customer-supplied
support plates and Twin Disc PTO Support Plate Specifications
contained in the Description and Specifications section of this manual.
Failure to follow this requirement may result in damage to the power

take off or the engine flywheel housing.
Belt or chain tension/Allowable Side Load Pulls

12.
Avoid excessive tightening of belts or chains. See the Allowable Side

Load tables in this Installation section.
13.
Avoid excessively loose belts or chains. Belt tension or chain adjustment

that is below specifications can cause belt/chain whip during operation,
resulting in bearing failure and shortened power take-off service life.
39
Installation
Deflection Caused by Side Load Pulls

14.
Power Take-Off deflection due to loads imposed by the application

should not exceed specified limits shown in PTO Deflection in the
Description and Specifications section. Deflection should be measured
at the support plate location on the power take-off (or main bearing area
of the housing if no support plate is used).
Figure 6. Determining Deflection While Applying Side Loads
The dial indicator should not be applied while the unit is operating. This
could result in damage to the dial indicator.
Lubrication
15.
40
Verify that the PTO is properly lubricated prior to starting the engine.
a.
The throwout collar is lubricated by grease through a grease fitting

on the outside of the main housing.
b.
SP211OP and SP311OP Series main bearings are lubricated

by oil contained in the main bearing cavity.
c.
All other SP111, SPE111, SP211, SPE211, SP311, RFD111

and RFD211Series main bearings are lubricated by grease
through a grease fitting in the housing or bearing carrier.
Installation
d.
The sealed-for-life pilot bearing should not be lubricated during

service.
e.
Pilot bearings designed for periodic lubrication must be greased.

See Lubrication in the Maintenance section for more
information. Improper lubrication will result in premature failure
of components. DO NOT OVERGREASE!
Refer to the Twin Disc Power Take-Off Reference Listing and Filling the
Main Bearing Cavity in the Description and Specifications section,
Lubrication in the Maintenance section and Engineering Drawings near
the back of this manual.
Clutch Adjustment
16.
Verify that the clutch is adjusted according to the procedure outlined in

Clutch Adjustment in the Maintenance section. Failure to do so will
result in premature clutch wear and failure.
Note: Twin Disc will not be responsible for any damage or injury
resulting from improper adjustment and/or lubrication. This
includes any accessory drives and loads.
Hand Lever Position

17.
Proper hand lever position is required to obtain long service life of the
throwout bearing. See Hand Lever Position for Twin Disc Power
Take-Offs and Model SPE211 and SPE311 Arm Adjustment
Procedure in this Installation section.
Air Engagement Mechanisms

18.
Air engagement mechanisms must be installed and adjusted properly

for proper clutch actuation and long service life of the PTO. No preload
on the throwout bearing can exist either in the fully-engaged or fullyreleased positions, and the air mechanism must be engineered and
installed to provide proper engagement force and stroke to properly
engage and disengage the clutch. See Setting Up Air Engagement
on Twin Disc Power Take-Offs in this Installation section.
41
Installation
Prior to Installation (Ref: SAE J1033 and J617)

Refer to Identifying the SAE Housing Size in the Description
and Specifications section of this manual.
Most Twin Disc products mount directly onto the flywheel of the engine.
Flywheel-to-driven component interference is possible due to mismatch
of components or other reasons. Therefore, engine crankshaft endplay
as well as flywheel alignment check must be made before the driven
component, the Power Take-Off, is installed.
After installation of the Power Take-Off, crankshaft end play should be
measured again. End play at the second measurement should be the
same as the first. A difference in these two end play measurements could
be an indication of interference. Consequently, the Power Take-Off
should be removed and the source of interference found and corrected.
Twin Disc will not be responsible for system damage caused by engine
to Twin Disc match-up regardless of the cause of interference. This
engine crankshaft end play check is considered mandatory.
Note: All measurements must be taken with the engine or motor
mounted on its supports after the flywheel and housing
have been thoroughly cleaned.
1.
42
Measure and record the engine crankshaft or motor shaft endplay using
a dial indicator. Record this value, as it will be used later._______

Alignment - U-Joint-Type Installation

Refer to illustration on next page.
To realize the longest possible life of the power take-off bearings, the best
possible alignment must be maintained between the center line of the power
take-off shaft and the center line of the driven unit shaft.
1.
It is extremely important that the forks of the drive shaft between the
PTO and the driven unit lie in the same plane. This will prevent severe
vibrations from occurring in the drive shaft.
2.
The center lines of the PTO shaft and the driven unit input shaft must be
offset within the limits recommended by the u-joint manufacturer to
prolong the life of the universal joint needle bearings.
3.
It is extremely important that the center lines of the pto shaft and driven
unit input shaft be parallel. This will further prevent vibrations which cause
premature pto bearing failure.
4.
Proper lubrication of the pto is important for satisfactory service. Refer

to lubrication specifications in the Maintenance section of this manual.
Align the centerlines of the pto shaft and the input shaft of the driven
unit. (One possible method is described below.)
72
5.
To align the engine and gear head by this method, two accurate straight
edges at least 91 cm. (36 in.) long and a tape measure are required.
6.
Place the straight edges horizontally along the face of the pto and gear
head hubs. Measure distances A and B. These two distances should be
equal within 3.17 mm. (.125 in.) at a point 45.7 cm. (18 in.) from the
centerline of the shaft. Move the engine and/or driven unit to obtain this
specification.
7.
Rotate the shafts so the straight edges are in a vertical position. Measure
the distances C and D as was done for A and B in step 2. These two
distances should be equal within 3.17 mm. (.125 in.) at a point 45.7 cm.
(18 in.) from the centerline of the shaft. Move the engine and/or driven
unit to obtain this specification.
Installation
8.
Secure the engine and driven unit. Recheck A and B, C and D as

described in steps 5 through 7 above. All measurements must be within
the specifications. If not, repeat steps 5 through 7 until specifications
are met.

Setting Up Air Engagement on Twin Disc Power Take Offs

1.
The cylinder should be located so that the piston moves forward and
backward in exactly the same direction as the engagement lever and is
aligned so it travels in exactly the same plane.
2.
The air cylinder must be of sufficient size to operate the required torque
to engage the clutch. It must have some means to make adjustment on
the piston stroke.
3.
Air pressure must be constant. Low pressures could give only partial
engagement which will cause failures of the clutch and throwout collar.
4.
The piston travel must be within limits established to both fully engage
and fully disengage the clutch. Failure to provide these parameters will
cause failure and possible breakage of the clutch.
5.
The engaging cylinder must not place a pressure either in the engaged
or disengaged direction after completion of its cycle. The throwout collar
must float free after engagement or disengagement. Operating the pto
with constant pressure on the throwout collar will result in failure.
Suggestion: A slotted connector, similar to the one illustrated
below may be used.

General Information
Model SP111, SPE111, SP211, SPE211, SP311, RFD111 and RFD211 Series
Power Take-Offs consist of a manually engaged and disengaged disconnect
clutch mounted on an output shaft in a cast iron housing that is bolted to the
engine. Clutch engagement and disengagement is accomplished by means
of an operating lever on the outside of the pto housing, which actuates an
internal linkage mechanism.
A drive ring is bolted to the engine flywheel. Internal teeth of the drive ring
mesh with external teeth of the clutch driving plate(s). These are the input
components of the Power Take-Off. Input components always rotate at engine
rpm.
Output components of the Power Take-Off consist of a clutch hub that is
mounted on the output shaft, a linkage mechanism for clutch engagement
and disengagement and clutch adjustment components. Clutches designed
with multiple clutch driving plates have a clutch center plate located between
the friction plates. The clutch center plate and pressure plate are driven
through internal teeth that mesh with external teeth on the clutch hub. Until
clutch engagement is initiated while the engine is running, the output
components do not rotate.
During clutch engagement, the clutch pressure plate is moved to clamp the
clutch driving plate(s) against the friction face of the clutch hub (or the center
plate(s). The internal engagement mechanism of the clutch locks the clutch
pressure plate in the engaged position to complete the drive. Thus, at full
clutch engagement, the output shaft is driven at engine speed.
Grease- or oil-lubricated main bearings are located in the pto housing and/
or bearing carrier. Most designs include a pilot bearing mounted in the engine
flywheel to support the front end of the clutch shaft. However, some designs
incorporate a main bearing configuration that does not require use of a pilot
bearing.
A support plate bolted to the bearing carrier of some units is required to
provide sufficient support where heavy weight and/or side loads exist.
77
Operation
Clutch Engagement Procedure
Normal clutch engagement
Do not start the engine with the nameplate removed.

The PTO clutch should normally be engaged with the engine at the lowest
rpm possible. The clutch should be engaged quickly to avoid an extended
period of slippage during engagement. The clutch should be engaged with
the engine operating below 1,000 rpm.
After the clutch is fully engaged and the load has been brought up to engine
engagement speed, the engine rpm may be increased to operating speed.
Clutch engagement where high inertia loads exist

Twin Disc, Inc. recommends that the PTO installation be designed to allow
clutch engagement at 1,000 rpm or below. Under extreme circumstances,
where high inertia loads must be picked up, the engine may have to be
operated at higher speeds while the engagement occurs, as engaging the
clutch at 1,000 rpm or below may result in stalling the engine.
Clutch engagement should occur at the lowest possible engine rpm.

Heavy inertia loads may be brought up to engine speed by a series of short
clutch engagements and disengagements (sometimes referred to as
bumping) at intervals long enough to gradually increase the speed of the
load, yet prevent excessive heat build-up in the friction facings.
After the clutch is fully engaged and the load has been brought up to engine
engagement speed, the engine rpm may be increased to operating speed.
Under no circumstances should the clutch be slipped for more than a

second or two without either fully engaging or disengaging the clutch
to permit it to cool.
78
Operation
Clutch engagement to clear a jammed driven device
Never engage the PTO to unjam a stuck load. Doing so could result in
injury to the operator, and damage to the equipment.
Always shut the engine off and disengage the clutch before clearing a jammed
load. The jam should be cleared, and the output shaft must be rotated to be
certain that the jam is completely removed before starting the engine and
engaging the PTO.
Operator should be aware of the required clutch engagement force

The clutch engagement force must be at the proper level to realize long life
of the PTO clutch. If this engagement force seems low, refer to the Clutch
Adjustment Procedure in the Maintenance section of this manual.
Insufficient clutch engagement force can cause clutch slippage resulting

in catastrophic clutch failure.
The engagement lever must be located in the proper position to prevent
premature failures of the internal throwout collar components. The
engagement lever should be in the vertical position with the clutch engaged.
See Hand Lever Position for Twin Disc Power Take-Offs in the Installation
Improper handle position can cause throwout collar failure resulting in

catastrophic failure of the clutch.

Maintenance Tips
Tapered Roller Bearing Adjustment
1.
Tapered roller bearing end play adjustment should have been adjusted
prior to installation of the power take-off. Periodically check for
excessive shaft movement during clutch engagement and
disengagement and during operation to insure failure is not occurring.
See information in the Installation section of this manual.
Pilot Bearings
2.
Ball-type pilot bearings and Roller-type pilot bearings must be installed

properly. Some pilot bearings are to be greased periodically, See
Lubrication this Maintenance section.
Lubrication
3.
Verify that the PTO is properly lubricated prior to starting the engine
and at all times during operation. Refer to the Twin Disc Power
Take-Off Reference Listing in the Description and Specifications
section, Lubrication in this Maintenance section and Engineering
Drawings near the back of this manual.
Throwout bearing failures may be, among other causes, the result of
improper lubrication.
Clutch Adjustment
4.
Check frequently to insure that the clutch is adjusted according to the

procedure outlined in Clutch Adjustment in this Maintenance section.
Failure to do so will result in premature clutch wear and failure.
Note: Twin Disc will not be responsible for any damage or
injury resulting from improper adjustment and/or
lubrication. This includes any accessory drives and
loads.
81
Maintenance
Hand Lever Position

5.
Throwout bearing failures may be, among other causes, the result of
improper hand lever position. See Hand Lever Position for Twin
Disc Power Take-Offs and Model SPE211 and SPE311 Arm
Adjustment Procedure in the Installation section of this manual.
Alignment
6.
The flywheel and flywheel housing alignment should have been set
within specifications prior to installation of the power take-off and must
be maintained for long service life of the components.
Misalignment of driven components can result in power take-off failure.
Periodically check for bolts that may have loosened or driven
components that have not been properly aligned during servicing or
maintenance procedures. See information regarding Alignment in
the Installation section of this manual.
Support Plate
7.
When mounting the engine and Power Take-Off in the machine, a

customer-supplied support plate may be required to support the output
end of the PTO housing. Proper installation and alignment of the
support plate must be maintained.
Periodically check to insure that the bolts securing the support plate
are tightened to specifications and that the support plate is properly
reinstalled and realigned whenever work is performed on the power
take-off or power package module. See the information about
customer-supplied support plates and Twin Disc Support Plate
Specifications contained in the Description and Specifications section
of this manual.
Failure to follow maintain this requirement may result in damage to the

power take off or the engine flywheel housing.
82
Maintenance
Belt or chain tension/Allowable Side Load Pulls

8.
Maintain proper belt or chain tension adjustments. Avoid excessively

tight or excessively loose belts or chains. Failure to maintain proper
belt or chain adjustment can cause bearing failure and shortened
power take-off service life.
Deflection Caused by Side Load Pulls

9.
Maintain proper side that do not exceed specified limits shown in

Allowable Side Load Pulls in the Installation section and PTO

every 3 months or 100 hours operation (whichever occurs first).
Throwout Collar
All Models SP111, SP211 SP311, RFD111 and RFD211 Series
Apply 1 cc. of grease (one shot from a grease gun) daily before start-up and
then every 8-10 hours operation thereafter, through the fitting on the tapered
part of the housing.
Models SPE111, SPE211 Series

No throwout collar is used. No lubrication is necessary.
Pilot Bearing
RFD211 Series (except sealed-for-life style bearings).
The pilot bearing supplied with most power take-offs is pre-lubricated and
sealed for life. No maintenance is required. Inspection is recommended every
two years or when the power take-off is removed from the driving component
for servicing.

RFD211 Series with sealed-for-life style bearings
If the pilot bearing supplied with your power take-off is to be periodically
lubricated, add one shot of grease from a grease gun every 100 hours through
the fitting in the output end of the clutch shaft. Do Not Overgrease!!
Clutch Linkage
All Models
Lubricate the clutch linkage mechanism, cotter pins, clevis pins and levers,
with engine oil every 500 hours of operation.
Lubricate sufficiently but sparingly. Excess oil can splash or drip onto
the friction plates, causing clutch slippage that may result in clutch
failure.
86
Maintenance
Clutch Adjustment
Note: New power take-offs must have clutch adjustment
checked before being placed into service and after the
first 10 hours of operation. This includes any power takeoffs with new friction plates. New plates have a wear in
period and the clutch may require several adjustments
before the new plates are worn in.
After wear in, clutch adjustment should be checked regularly. Heavy duty
applications (rock crushers, etc.,) which have frequent engagements,
numerous engagements in an operating day or relatively long periods of slip
require more frequent readjustment than light duty applications.
Adjust the clutch BEFORE it overheats, does not pull, or the operating lever
jumps from the engaged position. But these symptoms are indications that
clutch adjustment is required.
Adjustment measurements are made by fitting a torque wrench with a 1 1/2
socket over the hex end located at the bottom of the hand lever. Grasp only
the torque wrench when making measurements.
1.
Disconnect any power engagement devices from the operating shaft

if so equipped.
To adjust the clutch:

Refer to the exploded views in the illustrations section of this manual.
2.
Remove the instruction cover plate (45) from the housing (44) and
turn the clutch shaft until the adjusting ring lock pin (25) can be
reached.
3.
Disengage the adjusting lock pin and insert a cotter pin or small nail
into the hole provided to hold it in the disengaged position. Turn the
adjusting yoke (26) to the right (or clockwise when looking at the
flywheel) until the required peak torque is required at the operating
shaft (55) to engage the clutch. Refer to the Description and
Specifications section of this manual for correct peak torque.
87
Maintenance
88
4.
Remove the cotter pin or small nail. Re-engage the adjusting ring
lock pin.
5.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 above as necessary until the proper torque

reading is obtained. Replace the instruction cover plate and secure
with two hex-head capscrews (46). Securely tighten.
Maintenance
Friction Plate Replacement

Refer to the exploded views in the illustrations section of this manual.
Common symptoms indicating that the friction plates (6) are worn out are:
1.
The adjusting yoke (26) cannot be turned clockwise any further.
2.
The friction face surfaces have worn flush with the rivet heads, or the
rivets are loose.
It is necessary to remove and disassemble the clutch assembly to replace

the friction plates. Refer to instructions in the Disassembly and Assembly
sections of this manual.
Split-type friction plates are not recommended for use in SP311 Series
power take-offs.

Cleaning and Inspection

Refer to the BOM, the exploded views in the Illustrations section and
Engineering Drawings near the back of this manual.
Bearings
1.
Thoroughly wash bearings in clean solvent if they have been in service.

Soak bearings in solvent if they are particularly dirty.
Never dry bearing with compressed air. Do not spin bearings while
they are not lubricated. Oil bearings with SAE 10 engine oil immediately
after cleaning. Be sure bearings are oiled before inspection. Protect
clean bearings, whether they are new or have been in service, from
dirt, dust, grit or any other contaminant.
2.
Inspect bearings for roughness of rotation. Replace the bearing if

roughness is found.
3.
Inspect bearings for corrosion, scored, scratched, cracked, pitted or

chipped races, and for indication of excessive wear of balls or rollers.
If one of the these defects is found, replace the bearing.
Preventing Entrance of Dirt Into Bearings

4.
Dirt and grit in bearings are often responsible for bearing failure.
Consequently, it is important to keep bearings clean. Do not remove
grease from new bearings. Keep the wrapper on new bearings until
immediately before they are to be installed. Do not expose new clean
bearings until they are ready to be used in the assembly. Keep them
wrapped in clean lint-free cloth or paper to keep out dust and debris.
Protect bearings from contamination even after they are installed on
the shaft or in the bore.
111
Housings, Cast Parts and Machined Surfaces

5.
Replace cast parts or housings that are cracked.
6.
Inspect bearing bores for grooved, burred or galled conditions that

would indicate that the bearing has been turning in its housing. If the
damage cannot be repaired to like-new condition with a crocus cloth,
replace the part. Bore diameters must not exceed the maximum
dimension shown in Wear Limits in the Description and Specifications
Closely check bearing
bore for damage.
Check threads or pilot
for damage.
Check face for
damage.
Typical Bearing Carrier or Housing bore area
Figure 31. Inspect the bores, threads and faces

7.
Inspect bores for wear, grooves, scratches and dirt. Remove burrs
and scratches with crocus cloth or a soft stone. Replace parts that
are deeply grooved or scratched.
8.
Inspect oil and grease passages for obstructions. If an obstruction is

found, remove it with compressed air or by working a wire or wire
brush back and forth through the passage and flushing it with solvent.
All grease and oil

passageways
must be clean.
Figure 32. Be sure passageways are clean.

112
Shafts, seal lip contact surfaces and bearing journals

9.
Inspect machined surfaces for burrs, scratches, nicks and foreign

matter. If such defects cannot be removed with crocus cloth or a soft
stone, replace the part.
10.
Inspect bearing journals on the shaft for grooved, burred or galled

conditions that would indicate that the bearing has been turning on
the shaft. If the damage cannot be repaired to like-new condition with
a crocus cloth, replace the part. Bearing journal diameters must not
be less than the dimensions shown in Wear Limits in the Description
and Specifications section of this manual.
11.
Inspect the pilot bearing journal on the clutch shaft. If it is worn in any
way, or if it shows signs that the pilot bearing has been turning on the
journal, replace the clutch shaft. Pilot bearing journal diameters must
not be less than the dimensions shown in Wear Limits in the
Figure 33. Inspect bearing journals and seal journals

113
12.
Inspect seal journal surfaces on the shaft. Look especially for scratches
or nicks that extend above the shaft surface. If they cannot be removed
using a fine crocus cloth, replace the part. Seal journal diameters
must not be less than the dimensions shown in Wear Limits in the
13.
Inspect seal lip contact surfaces on wear sleeves and other surfaces.
Look especially for scratches or nicks that intersect with or cross the
lip contact area. If they cannot be removed using a very fine crocus
cloth, replace the part.
14.
Inspect threaded openings for damaged threads. Chase damaged

threads with a tap of the correct size.
15.
Be sure the snap ring grooves have straight sides, especially if a

bearing failure has occurred.

Note: An alternative method to install the bearing cones is to
heat them in an oven at 135 C. (275 F.) for one hour and
install them immediately on the clutch shaft. Let the bearing
cone cool to room temperature after installation while
continuing to apply force as the bearing cools. This is
necessary to ensure that it remains properly seated.
Handle the heated parts with care. The heated parts are extremely HOT.

Partially install the hub key (29) in the keyway. Tap the hub-and-back
plate with a large, but soft mallet, to seat it on the tapered surface of the
clutch shaft.
Be sure the output end of the shaft is resting on a solid surface to absorb
the force through the shaft rather than through the bearing surfaces.

Drive the hub key (29) into position slightly below the surface of the huband-back plate (4).
Note: Do not use excessive hammer force when installing the
key.
5.
Install the hub nut lock washer (3) over the clutch shaft (33), locating its
tab in the drilled hole on the hub-and-back plate (4). Install the hub nut
(2) and tighten and torque to 40.7 Nm. (30 ft. -lb).

If not previously done, visually center the friction plates (6) on the clutch
and align the teeth. Press down on the collar assembly to lock the plates
in place. If necessary, pull the adjustment lock pin to compress the lock
pin spring, and rotate the adjusting yoke assembly until the plates are
locked in position when the collar is pressed down.
Note: This is an initial setting to hold the plates in place until
after the pto is mounted on the engine, so it is imperative
that the teeth be exactly aligned and the plates are exactly
centered on the clutch. The driving ring may be used as
an alignment fixture to align the teeth and center the plates
relative to the hub-and-backplate so they are perfectly
aligned when the pto is installed on the engine.
