Disassembly Procedures
Reconditioning and Replacement of Parts
After disassembly, all parts should be thoroughly cleaned
in a suitable solvent.
Inspect all parts for damage, nicks or unusual wear
patterns. Replace all parts having unusual, excessive wear
or discoloration.
Inspect the sealing surfaces, bearing surfaces, and shaft
splines. Polish the sealing areas on the shafts if neces-
sary. Replace any worn or damaged parts.
The running surfaces of the cylinder blocks MUST be flat
and free from scratches. If scratches or wear are found on
the running surface of the cylinder block or center section,
replace the parts.
Assembly Procedures
Clean and lightly oil parts prior to assembly of the BDU
transmission.
Be sure to torque all threaded parts to the recommended
torque levels.
Replace all o-rings, gaskets and shaft seals.
CAUTION: Most parts have critical high tolerance
surfaces. Care must be exercised to prevent damage
to these surfaces during assembly. Protect exposed
surfaces, openings, and ports from damage or for-
eign material.
Install the displacement control shaft.
