REPLACEMENT IMPORTANT Because the lower bearing assembly has been pressed onto the drive tube under approximately 1,000 pounds of pressure, a puller must be used to remove it. How­ ever, the puller forcing screw must not be used on the end of the drive shaft or the dutch assembly could be damaged. I...

If the torque readings are within these limits, the washer is performing properly and any slow spin complaints can be assumed to have been the result of off- balance loads. If the torque reading exceeds 25 inch pounds, the input torque outlined later should be checked to determine the cause. Probabl...
