4. Mainshaft Inspection

Mainshaft Inspection
1. Inspect the gear and bearing surfaces for wear and damage.





2. Measure the mainshaft at points A, B, C, and D. If any part of the mainshaft is less than the service limit, replace it.





3. Inspect for runout by supporting both ends of mainshaft. Then rotate the mainshaft two complete turns while measuring with a dial gauge. If the runout is more than the service limit, replace the mainshaft.
