11. Install transaxle case onto clutch housing, and tighten mount-
ing bolts with specified torque.
Tightening torque:
Refer to MT-54.
SMT648D
12. Apply Three Bond TB1215, Loctite Part No. 51813 or equiva-
lent to threads of reverse switch, PNP switch, and drain plug,
and install them. (Fill the case with oil before installation of filler
plug.)

15. Calculate thickness of adjusting shim using the following pro-
cedure to satisfy specification of end play for mainshaft rear
bearing.
End play: 0 - 0.06 mm (0 - 0.0024 in)
Dimension ªPº = (P1 ± P2) + End play
P: Thickness of adjusting shim
P1: Distance between transaxle case end face and
mainshaft rear bearing
P2: Distance between adjusting shim end face of
rear cover and transaxle mounting face
Mainshaft rear bearing adjusting shims:
Refer to SDS, MT-128.
