Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Introduction This manual is a step-by-step guide to the disassembly and ® assembly of the S40B SeriesTorque-Hub units with ratios of XX:X or lower. It is designed for the customer or mechanic who is ® repairing this particular Torque-Hub model.
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Roll and Leak Test ® Torque-Hub units should always be roll and leak tested before disassembly (if possible) and after assembly to make sure the unit’s gears, bearings and seals are working properly. The following information briefly outlines what to look for when performing these tests.
Page 6
The Leak Test The purpose of a leak test is to make sure the unit is airtight. To perform a leak test, use the leak test fixture from the table on page 10. If the tool is not available, the gearbox must be sealed to perform the test.
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Tightening and Torquing Bolts If an air impact wrench is used to tighten bolts, extreme care should be taken to ensure the bolts are not tightened beyond their specified torque. The following steps describe how to tighten and torque bolts or socket head cap screws in a bolt circle.
95 cst and maintain a minimum viscosity of 40 cst under normal operating conditions. Some applications require special considerations; consult the machine manufacturer and Oerlikon Fairfield for more additional information. The table below lists the recommended viscosities for various ambient operating temperatures. These recommendations are based on temperature rise of 50°...
Page 9
Oil temperatures should be not higher than 160° to 180°F for continuous operation, and no higher than 200°F for intermittent operation. For special applications, high horsepower, high speeds or wide temperature changes, please consult Oerlikon Fairfield. ® Oil Fill Level...
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Main Disassembly Perform a roll check and a leak check prior to disassembling the unit. Remove two magnetic Pipe Plugs (14) and drain oil out of gearbox. NOTE: Record the condition and volume of the oil. Remove Bolts (12) from the Cover Subassembly.

Remove Thrust Bearing (10) from the Thrust Washer (9). Remove Thrust Washer (9) from the groove on the Cover Plate (5). Remove Thrust Washer (17) from the Cover Plate (5).
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Housing-Spindle Disassembly Set the unit on a bench so that the Spindle (1A) flange is down. Continued on Next Page...
Page 16
Remove O-Ring (25) from the Housing (1G) and discard it. Remove Hexagonal Bolts (1J) from Spindle (1A). Remove Bearing Carrier (1P) from the Spindle (1A). CAUTION: The Shim edges are sharp; wear gloves when handling or installing Shims to prevent injury. Remove Steel Shims (1I) from the Internal Coupling (1H).
Page 17
Remove the Face Seal (1B) from the Housing (1G) and Spindle (1A). Remove outboard Bearing Cone (1D) from the Housing (1G). Using a hammer and punch drive the inboard Bearing Cup (1E) out of the Housing (1G). Be careful not to damage the counter bore in the housing. Turn the Housing (1G) over and drive the outboard Bearing Cup (1C) out of the Housing.
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Output Carrier Disassembly Unbend the tang of Lock-Tanged Washer (2I) from the Bearing Nut (2H) and remove the Bearing Nut (2H) from the Planet Shaft (4K). Remove Lock-Tanged Washer (2I) from the Planet Shaft (4K). Remove Lock Pin (2J) from the slot of the Carrier (4A) and Planet Shaft (4K).
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Input Carrier Disassembly Unbend the tang of Lock-Tanged Washer (2I) from the Bearing Nut (2H) and remove the Bearing Nut (2H) from the Planet Shaft (2K). Remove Lock-Tanged Washer (2I).from the Planet Shaft (2K). Remove Lock Pin (2J) from slot of the Carrier (3A) and Planet Shaft (2K). Remove the Planet Shaft (2K).
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Cover Subassembly Place Cover (5) with bore side up on the table. Grease and install Thrust Washer (9) onto Cover (5). The grease should hold washer in place for assembly. Grease and install Bering (10) on top of Thrust Washer (9). Grease and install Thrust Washer (9) on top of Bearing (10).
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Input Carrier Subassembly CAUTION: Safety glasses must be worn during these next steps. Place Planet Gear (2B) onto press table. Install Retaining Ring (2G) into the groove of the Planet Gear (2B). Apply grease and install Thrust Washer (2E) onto the bore of the Planet Gear (2B) Use Tool T-159309 and install Bearing Cups (2C), with wide face into bore of the Planet Gear (3F).

Inspect Planet Shaft (2K) for nicks and burrs. Insure that planet shaft hole and planet shaft are free from debris, burrs, sharp corners. Start the Planet Shaft (3E) on the wide side of the Carrier (2A). Install Planet Shaft (2K) through large diameter in the carrier hole and through planet gear bearing inner race by aligning the lock pin slot in both carrier and planet shaft.
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Output Carrier Subassembly CAUTION: Safety glasses must be worn during these next steps. Place Planet Gear (4B) onto press table. Install Internal Retaining Ring (4E) into the groove of Planet Gear (4B). NOTE: In step below insure to install the Spacer (4F) into the deepest bore side from the retaining groove of the Planet Gear (4B).

Slide Planet Gear (4B) assembly into planet window of Carrier (2A) with Retaining Ring (4E) towards internal spline. Align planet bore in Planet Gear (4B) with Thrust Washer (2F) bore and Carrier (4A) planet shaft bore. Inspect the Planet Shaft (4K) for nicks and burrs. Insure that the planet shaft hole and Planet Shaft (4K) are free from debris, burrs, and sharp corners.
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Housing Spindle Subassembly Place Hub (1A) on table such that long hub end is up. Using alcohol and a clean rag, wipe off bearing locations on the Housing (1G) and the Spindle (1A). Press one Bearing Cup (1E) into bearing counter bore of spindle end of housing until seated against shoulder in housing.

Ensure there are no nicks or burrs on the installation radius that could damage the seal during installation. Place one half of the Face Seal (1B) into the seal counter-bore of the Spindle (1A). Place one half of the Face Seal (1B) into the seal counter-bore of the Housing (1G). If used install Boot Seal (1U) onto Housing (1G).
Page 28
Measure depth from the face of the Bearing Plate to the surface of the Shaft. Subtract the average thickness of the Bearing Plate. Add .004 to this difference to get required shim pack thickness. Round the dimension down to get a correct shim pack thickness. CAUTION: The Shim edges are sharp;...
Planetary Final Drive Service Manual Main Assembly NOTE: Spray component parts with a liberal amount of oil as they are being assembled. Clean the internal threads of Internal Coupling (1H) and of Bolts (28). Lower Output Carrier Subassembly into Internal Coupling (1H), in mesh with the splines. Place Retainer Plate (27) into the groove of the Carrier and onto Internal Coupling (1H).
