10.1 ALUMINUM GEAR CASE
1. Remove auger/impeller and gear case from
housing
(see Auger/Impeller Repair on page 27).
2. Remove six tapping screws that hold right and left
gear case halves together (
Figure 28).
3. If flange bushings need replacement:
a. Remove oil seals from outside of gear case
halves with a screwdriver.
b. Very lightly, press flange bushings from
outside in with a bearing driver. Make sure the
flat on the flange of bushing fits in the inside
notch of the case.
c. Replace oil seals.
4. Check all internal parts for wear, and replace if
necessary.
NOTE: A woodruff key holds the worm gear on rake
shaft.
5. Slide bronze bushing off front of worm gear shaft.
Replace if necessary. A flat on the bushing flange
positions the bearing inside the gear case.
6. Replace the seal behind the rear bronze bushing. It
fits into a groove in gear case.
7. Replace the rear bushing if necessary. It is a larger
diameter than one in front, but it is identical in
design.
8. If thrust collar needs replacing, drive out groove pin
in direction of least resistance.
9. Inspect worm gear shaft for burrs or black
coloration. If either show up, replace shaft.
