INSTALLATION

See Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4.

Note:

The gearbox has been filled at the factory (half full) with 75W90 synthetic oil (or
equivalent). Before further installation, check oil level to make certain the
gearbox is half full as required. Add oil if necessary. Do not use grease.

1. Slide boot-sealing plate over the shafts and leave hanging loosely against the

boot face (See Figure 2).

2. Ensure that square keys are installed correctly on both shafts.

3. Rotate shafts so that the keys align with the gearbox keyways.

4. Face the flat side of the gearbox to the front plate of boot. Slide the gearbox

onto flight shaft and gearbox shaft until the flat surface of the gearbox
touches the front plate of boot.

5. Use the upper and lower four holes on the boot face, to connect the gearbox

to the boot with four 1/2” x 7" mounting bolts and nuts. Tighten bolts and nuts
securely. Ensure nuts are tightened evenly and the gearbox is seated tightly
against the boot.
