3.1 Installation of the Driveshaft Bearing E-Ring
The Sierra 18-2345-9 E-ring is designed to secure the driveshaft bearing in place. Installation typically involves the following steps. Always refer to your specific marine engine service manual for detailed, model-specific instructions and safety precautions.
- Даярдоо: Ensure the driveshaft and bearing housing are clean and free of old grease or debris. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses.
- Bearing Placement: Carefully seat the driveshaft bearing into its designated position within the housing. Ensure it is fully seated and aligned correctly.
- E-Ring Orientation: Identify the groove or channel where the E-ring will be seated. The E-ring is designed to snap into this groove, providing axial retention for the bearing.
- Орнотуу: Using appropriate E-ring pliers or a suitable tool, carefully compress the E-ring and position it over the shaft or pin. Release the E-ring into the groove, ensuring it expands fully and seats securely. A distinct "snap" may be heard or felt when it is correctly seated.
