8 Power Flow The transmission must efficiently transfer the engine s power, in terms of torque, to the vehicle s wheels. Knowledge of what takes place in the transmission during torque transfer is essential when trouble-shooting and when making repairs become necessary. Power flow on 5 speed transmissions 1. Power (torque ) from the engine is transferred to the transmission input shaft. 2. Torque is transferred to countershaft drive gear. 3. Torque is delivered along countershaft to all countershaft gears. 4. Torque is transferred to engaged mainshaft gear. The cross section view illustrates 1 st speed gear position. 5. The engaged mainshaft gear external clutching teeth transfer torque to the mainshaft through the synchroniser assembly or sliding clutch. 6. The mainshaft transfer torque directly to driveshaft through the output yoke. 7

9 Purpose and Scope of Manual This manual is designed to provide detailed information necessary to service and repair the Eaton Fuller transmission listed on the front. How to Use This Manual The service procedures have been divided into two sections: In-Vehicle Service Procedures and Transmission Overhaul Procedures Bench Service. In-Vehicle Service Procedures contain procedures that can be performed while the transmission is still installed in the vehicle. Transmission Overhaul Procedures contain procedures that are performed after the transmission has been removed from the vehicle. The procedure sections are laid out with a general heading at the top outside edge of each page followed by more specific headings and the procedures. To find the information you need in these sections, first go to the section that contains the procedure you need. Then look at the heading at the top and outside edge of each page until you find the one that contains the procedure you need. Transmission Overhaul Procedures follow the general steps for complete disassembly and then assembly of the transmission. NOTE: In some instances the transmission appearance may differ from the illustrations. The procedure is the same. Warnings and Precautions Disassemble Precautions It is assumed in the detailed assembly instructions that the lubricant has been drained from the transmission, the necessary linkage disconnected and the transmission has been removed from vehicle chassis. Removal of the gear shift lever housing assembly (or remote control assembly) is included in the detailed instructions (How to Remove the Gear Shift Lever). This assembly MUST be detached from the shift bar housing before transmission can be removed. Follow closely each procedure in the detailed instructions, make use of the text, illustrations, and photographs provided. Assemblies When disassembling the various assemblies, such as the mainshaft, countershafts, and shift bar housing, lay all parts on a clean bench in the same sequence as removed. This procedure will simplify assembly and reduce the possibility of losing parts. Bearings Carefully wash and lubricate all usable bearings as removed and protectively wrap until ready for use. Remove bearings planned to be reused with pullers designed for this purpose. Cleanliness Provide a clean place to work. It is important that no dirt or foreign material enters the unit during repairs. Dirt is an abrasive and can damage bearings. It is always good practice to clean the outside of the unit before starting the planned disassembly. 8

10 Input Shaft The input shaft can be removed from the transmission without removing the countershaft or mainshaft. Snap Rings Remove snap rings with pliers designed for this purpose. Snap rings removed in this manner can be reused, if they are not sprung or loose. When Using Tools to Move Parts Always apply force to shafts, housings, etc., with restraint. Movement of some parts is restricted. Never apply force to driven parts after they stop solidly. The use of soft hammers, soft bars, and mauls for all disassembly work is recommended. Inspection Precautions Before assembling the transmission, check each part carefully for abnormal or excessive wear and damage to determine reuse or replacement. When replacement is necessary, use only genuine Eaton Fuller Transmission parts to assure continued performance and extended life from your unit. Since the cost of a new part is generally a small fraction of the total cost of downtime and labour, avoid reusing a questionable part which could lead to additional repairs and expense soon after assembly. To aid in determining the reuse or replacement of any transmission part, consideration should also be given to the unit s history, mileage, application, etc. Recommended inspection procedures are provided in the following checklist. Bearings A. Wash all bearings in clean solvent. Check balls, rollers, and raceways for pitting, discoloration, and spalled areas. Replace bearings that are pitted, discoloured, spalled, or damaged during disassembly. B. Lubricate bearings that are not pitted, discoloured, or spalled and check for axial and radial clearances (per manufacturers specifications. C. Replace bearings with excessive clearances. D. Check bearing fit. Bearing inner races should be tight to shaft; outer races slightly tight to slightly loose in case bore. If bearing spins freely in bore, case should be replaced. Bearing Covers A. Check covers for wear from thrust of adjacent bearing. Replace covers damaged from thrust of bearing outer race. B. Check cover bores for wear. Replace those worn or oversized. Clutch Release Parts A. Check clutch release parts. Replace yokes worn at cam surfaces and bearing carrier worn at contact pads. B. Check pedal shafts. Replace those worn at bushing surfaces. Gears A. Check gear teeth for frosting and pitting. Frosting of gear teeth faces presents no threat of transmission failure. Often in continued operation of the unit, frosted gears heal and do not progress to the pitting stage. In most cases, gears with light to moderate pitted teeth have considerable gear life remaining and can be reused, but gears in the advanced stage of pitting should be replaced. 9

11 B. Check for gears with clutching teeth abnormally worn, tapered, or reduced in length from clashing during shifting. Replace gears found in any of these conditions. C. Check axial clearance of gears. Where excessive clearance is found, check gear snap ring, split washer, clutch hub, and gear hub for excessive wear. Gear Shift Lever Housing Assembly A. Check spring tension on shift lever. Replace tension spring if lever moves too freely. B. If housing is disassembled, check gear shift lever bottom end, housing, and shift finger assembly for wear. Replace if excessively worn. Gray Iron Parts A. Check all grey iron parts (case, covers) for cracks and breaks. Replace parts found to be damaged. Oil Seals A. Check oil seal in input shaft and rear bearing cover. If sealing action of lip has been destroyed, replace oil seal. O-Rings A. Check all O-rings for cracks or distortion. Replace if worn. Reverse Idler Gear Assemblies A. Check for excessive wear from action of roller bearings. Shift Bar Housing Assembly A. Check for wear on shift yokes and finger assembly at pads and lever slot. Replace excessively worn parts. B. Check yokes for correct alignment. Replace sprung yokes. C. Check lockscrews in yoke assembly retainer plates. Tighten those found loose. Replace shift bar housing if lockscrew holes are damaged. D. Check detent ball hole for wear. Replace if bore is oblong. Splines A. Check splines on all shafts for abnormal wear. If sliding clutches, gears, clutch plates, companion flange, or clutch hub has worn marks in the spline sides, replace the specific shaft affected. Synchroniser Assembly A. Check synchroniser for burrs, uneven and excessive wear at contact surface, and metal particles. B. Check blocker pins and pre-energiser springs for excessive wear or looseness. C. Check synchroniser contact surfaces on the synchroniser cups for wear. Washers A. Check surfaces of all washers. Washers scored or reduced in thickness should be replaced. Assembly Precautions Make sure that case interiors and housings are clean. It is important that dirt and other foreign materials are kept out of the transmission during assembly. Dirt is an abrasive and can damage polished surfaces of bearings and washers. Use certain precautions, as listed below, during assembly. Axial Clearances Maintain original axial clearances for mainshaft gears. 10

12 Bearings Use a sleeve type bearing driver for bearing installation. These special drivers contact the inner bearing race, preventing damage to balls/rollers while maintaining correct bearing alignment with shaft. Capscrews To prevent oil leakage and loosening, use Eaton/Fuller sealant Loctite 262 on all capscrews, if not precoated. Gaskets Use new gaskets throughout the transmission as it is being rebuilt. Make sure all gaskets are installed. An omission of any gasket can result in oil leakage or misalignment of bearing covers. Initial Lubrication Coat all thrust washers, synchronisers, and bearings with transmission lubricant during assembly to prevent damage during initial start-up. O-Rings Lubricate all O-rings with silicon lubricant. Shims Apply a light coat of Eaton/Fuller sealant Loctite 518 or 515 to both sides of shims. Universal Joint Companion Flange Pull the companion flange or yoke tightly into place with the output shaft nut, using ( Nm) of torque. Make sure the speedometer drive gear or a replacement spacer of the same width has been installed. Failure to properly torque the nut can result in damage to the mainshaft rear bearing. IMPORTANT: See the appropriate Illustrated Parts Lists (specified by model series) to ensure that proper parts are used during assembly of the transmission. 11

13 Serial Tag Information and Model Nomenclature Transmission model designation and other transmission identification information are stamped on the transmission tag. To identify the transmission model designation and serial number, locate the tag on the transmission and then locate the numbers as shown below When calling for service assistance or parts, have the model and serial numbers handy. Do not remove or destroy the transmission identification tag. Transmission Tag and Location Model Number The model number gives basic information about the transmission and is explained below. Use this number when calling for service assistance or replacement parts. Serial Number The serial number is the sequential identification number of the transmission. Before calling for service assistance, write the number down. It may be needed. FS-6406 F S O A Bill of Material or Customer Number This number is also referred to as the TA# and is located below the model and serial numbers. It is a reference number used by Eaton and is helpful if calling for technical support. 12

14 Torque Ratings Correct torque application is extremely important to assure long transmission life and dependable performance. Over-tightening or under-tightening can result in a loose installation and, in many instances, eventually cause damage to transmission gears, shafts or bearings. Use of a thread sealer/locking compound is recommended for all capscrews. Do not torque capscrews dry.

15 Proper lubrication procedures are the key to a good all-around maintenance program. Eaton Fuller Transmissions are designed so that the internal parts operate in an oil circulating bath created by the motion of the gears and shafts. All parts will be properly lubricated if these procedures are closely followed: A. Maintain oil level. Inspect regularly. B. Follow maintenance interval chart. C. Use the correct grade and type of oil. D. Buy from a reputable dealer. Maintain Proper Oil Level Make sure oil is level with the filler opening. Being able to reach oil with your finger does not mean oil is at proper level. (25.4mm of oil level is about 3,8litres.) When adding oil, never mix engine oils and gear oils in the same transmission. 1. Incorrect 2. Correct Maintenance Interval Chart Transmission Oils See Service and Maintenance Manual If your vehicle has a transmission oil filter, you must change the filter when fluid or lubricant is changed. The use of lubricants not meeting these requirements will affect warranty coverage. 14

16 Some repair procedures pictured in this manual show the use of specialised tools. Their actual use is recommended as they make transmission repair easier, faster, and prevent costly damage to critical parts. But for the most part, ordinary mechanic s tools such as socket wrenches, screwdrivers, etc., and other standard shop items such as a press, mauls and soft bars are all that is needed to successfully disassemble and reassemble any Eaton Fuller Transmission. 15

17 Everyday there are countless vehicles operating over the highways with transmissions in such a neglected mechanical condition, they can be referred to as failures looking for a place to break down. They lack a proper and organised preventive maintenance program. Preventive maintenance is a general term which applies to all procedures necessary to have maximum life and satisfactory service at the lowest possible cost, short of removing and repairing the unit. A number of conditions contrary to good preventive maintenance can generally be pointed to when inspecting a failed transmission. Taking a few minutes every so many hours or miles to do a few simple checks could help avoid eventual breakdown or reduce the repair cost. If the transmission is not cared for, it will breakdown. Transmission appearance may differ, however the procedure is the same. Checks Before Transmission Removal NOTE: Transmission appearance may differ, the procedure is the same. 6 Clutch Housing Mounting (1) Check all cap screws of clutch housing flange for looseness. Clutch Release Bearing (Not Shown) Remove hand hole cover and check radial and axial clearance in release bearing. Check relative position of thrust surface of release bearing with thrust sleeve on push-type clutches. Clutch Pedal Shaft and Bores (3) Pry upward on shafts to check wear. If excessive movement is found, remove clutch release mechanism and check bushings on bores and wear on shafts. See Original Truck Builder literature. 16

18 Lubricant (4) Change at specified service intervals. Use only the types and grades as recommended. Filler and Drain Plugs (5) Remove filler plugs and check level of lubricant at specified intervals. Tighten fill and drain plugs securely. Capscrews and Gaskets (6) Check all capscrews, especially those on PTO covers and rear bearing covers for looseness which would cause oil leakage. Check PTO opening and rear bearing covers for oil leakage due to faulty gasket. Gear Remote Control (7) Check for looseness and free play in housing. If lever is loose in housing, check Gear remote control Housing Assembly. Checks With Drive Line Dropped (prop shaft removed) Universal Joint Companion Flange (9) Check for tightness. Tighten to recommended torque. Output Shaft (Yoke Nut Tightened) Pry upward against output shaft to check radial clearance in mainshaft rear bearing. Checks With Universal Joint Companion Flange Removed NOTE: If necessary, use solvent and shop rag to clean sealing surface of companion flange or yoke. Do not use crocus cloth, emery paper, or other abrasive materials that will mar surface finish. Splines on Output Shaft (11) Check for wear from movement and chucking action of the universal joint companion flange or yoke. Mainshaft Rear Bearing Cover (12) Check oil seal for wear. 17

19 Inspection Part to Inspect What to Check For Action to be Done Speedometer Connections Speedometer cables should not be loose Applied hydraulic thread sealant to threads. Torque speedometer sleeve to Should be an O-ring or gasket between the mating Speedometer sleeve and the rear bearing cover Nm Replace the O-ring/gasket if damaged or missing. Rear Bearing Cover Nuts Check retaining nuts for tightness. Apply Eaton Sealant Loctite 262 to the cap screw threads. Torque cap screws to Nm Output Yoke Retaining Nut PTO Covers and Openings Front Bearing Cover Oil Drain Plug, Oil Fill Plug Check the output yoke retaining nut for tightness. Check the cap screws for tightness. Check front bearing cover, front case, shift bar housing, rear bearing cover, and clutch housing for cracks or breaks. Check the capscrews for tightness. Check the oil drain plug and the oil fill plug for leakage. Torque the output yoke retaining nut to Nm. Do not over torque the output nut. Apply Eaton Sealant Loctite 262 to the cap screw threads, if not precoated. Tighten PTO capscrews to Nm Replace parts found to be damaged. Tighten the cap screws to Nm Torque the oil drain plug to Nm Torque the oil fill plug to Nm 18

20 Rear Seal Maintenance Leakage in transmission rear seals is perhaps the most common problem in truck transmissions. The problem is more than a nuisance because if not repaired, a leaking seal can lead to catastrophic transmission failure. There have been strides in reducing leakage through improved designs and the use of new seal materials. However, the most important way to reduce this problem continues to be through proper service and installation procedures. It can be very time consuming and expensive to replace a rear seal system, then find the oil seal system was not causing the oil leakage. Using the following checklist, inspect the transmission to insure proper identification of the leak path. Before disassembling the rear seal system, clean the rear bearing cover, the rear seal, and the output yoke. DO NOT USE A HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY WASHER TO CLEAN THE REAR SEAL SYSTEM. USE A CLEAN DRY CLOTH. Run the vehicle, then inspect these areas for oil leaks. 19
