TRANSMISSIONS

CONNECTIONS
(HSW
MODELS)
The transmission is suitable for a single lever gear shift.
Upon loosening
the
retaining
screw,
the actuating lever (see
illustration) can be moved
to
any
position required for
the
control elements (cable or rod linkage). Make certain that
the
actuating lever
does
not contact
the
lever
hub:
the
minimum
distance between
the
lever
and
the
hub should be 0.02in
(0.5mm).
The control cable or
rod
should be arranged
at
a right angle
to
the actuating lever
when
in the neutral position. The
neutral position of the gear shift lever on
the
control console
should coincide
with
the neutral position of the lever on
the
transmission. ·
The shifting travel,
as
measured
at
the
pivot point of the
actuating lever between
the
neutral position and end positions
A and
B,
should be atleast
1-3/Sin
(35mm) for
the
outer-and
1-3/16in
(30mm)
for
the
inner pivot point.

A greater amount of actuating lever travel
is
in
no
way
detrimental and
is
recommended. However, if
the
lever travel
is shorter, proper clutch engagement might be impeded
which, in turn, would
mean
premature
wear,
excessive heat
generation
and
clutch plate failure. This would be indicated
by
slow clutch engagement or
no
engagement at all (see
CONTROL CABLES under TRANSMISSION
TROUBLESHOOTING)
NOTE:
Check for proper actuating lever travel at least each
season.

The

of

SHAFT
COUPLINGS
WESTERBEKE recommends a flexible connection between
the
transmission and
the
propeller shaft if
the
engine
is
flexi-
bly mounted, in order
to
compensate for angular
deflections.
The installation of a special propeller thrust bearing is not
required, since the propeller thrust will be absorbed
by
the
transmission bearing, provided
the
value specified under
SPECIFICATIONS is not exceeded. However,
the
output
shaft
should be protected from additional
loads.
Special care
should be taken
to
prevent torsional vibration. When
using
a
universal joint shaft, make certain
to
observe
the
manufac-
turer's instructions.
Even with the engine solidly mounted
the
use
of a
flexible
coupling or "DRIVESAVER" will reduce stress
in
the
gear-
box bearings
caus'ed
by
hull distortions, especially in
wooden
boats or where
the
distance between
the
transmission output
coupling and
stem.
gland
is
less than about
800mm.
NOTE:
When
installing
the
transmission, make certain that
shifting
is
not impeded by restricted movability
of
the
cable
or
rod
linkage,
by unsuitably positioned guide
sheaves,
too
small a bending radius or other restrictions.
In
order
to
mount a support bracket for shift cable
to
secure
to,
use
the
threaded pillar nuts located on
the
transmission housing
above
the
shift
kever.
Refer
to
the
model's parts
list.
