1 Position torque wrench (2) with socket wrench bit (1) onto collar nut.
2 Continue to turn the countershaft gear (3) using the torque wrench (2) by at least three turns and read off the friction torque while doing so.
If the friction torque deviates from the adjustment value, a suitable shim must be fitted. A thinner shim increases the friction torque: a thicker one reduces the friction torque. The lower adjustment value should be used for tapered roller bearings that have been used and the upper adjustment value for new ones.
