      Using a screwdriver, remove the 2 O-rings from the No. 2 brake piston.

  61. REMOVE FRONT PLANETARY GEAR ASSEMBLY


    1. B000LSRE01

      Using SST and a press, remove the front planetary gear assembly from the transaxle case sub-assembly.

      SST
      09950-60010   ( 09951-00580 )
      09950-70010   ( 09951-07100 )

  62. INSPECT FRONT PLANETARY GEAR ASSEMBLY


    1. B000N4XE01

      Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the front planetary gear case and each pinion gear at points (A) and (B).

      Standard Clearance
      Point (A)
      0.23 to 0.59 mm (0.00906 to 0.0232 in.)
      Point (B)
      0.16 to 0.66 mm (0.00630 to 0.0259 in.)

      If the clearance is greater than the standard clearance, replace the front planetary gear assembly.

  63. REMOVE COUNTER DRIVE GEAR

    Note

    Perform this procedure only when the counter drive gear bearing or transaxle case sub-assembly is replaced.


    1. B000I3RE01

      Using SST and a press, remove the counter drive gear and bearing inner race (rear side) from the transaxle case sub-assembly.

      SST
      09950-60020   ( 09951-00710 )
      09950-70010   ( 09951-07100 )
    2. B000JU4

      As shown in the illustration, tighten 3 service bolts evenly to make a clearance of approximately 20.0 mm (0.787 in.) between the counter drive gear and bearing inner race (front side).
