70. Observe the position of the new sprocket in the
weldment. Compare the clearances to the target
values in Figure 22.
71. Typically, the sprocket will be too close to the deeper
axle weldment. Estimate how many 2in washers
would be needed to shift the sprocket toward the
shallow weldment.

Adjust Sprocket Clearance
76. On the blunt (non-threaded) end of the spindle, add
the estimated set of 2in washers needed to shift the
sprocket into clearance range.
77. Add a hub
to the blunt end of the spindle, and
temporarily secure with a cross-bolt
. A nut
and washer are not needed for this step.
78. Push against the blunt (non-threaded) end of the
spindle to fully seat the hub, washers, spacer and
bearing. Check the sprocket clearances. Adjust
washer mix as needed to achieve spacing.
Note: There are two gauge wheel weldments. Don’t use
more than half of the 2in washer adjusting the first
weldment. If more than half of the washers are
needed, remove all washer, loosen the keyless
hub and re-position it starting at step 61.
