The manual suggests 40 to 80 thou movement for the valve arm. I’m confused as to whether this means just pull the arm down with your thumb until it bind then do up the adjuster nuts ? Allowing about 1 to 2mm movement ? Any advice?  |

Hi, I have been checking my manuals but can't find anymore information, basically there needs to be 1-2 mm of "looseness" at the servos so that the bands do not grip the drums until the the piston takes up the clearance. Sorry I can't be more specific.

The 1-2 mm is the play from the band casing stop and the servo plunger. I did,nt use new bands as there was plenty of meat on mine, but my top/reverse bands on all 3x boxes i stripped had at least 15mm of movement, the other 2x bands in the boxes were much less.

Sorry if you have already mentioned this but what is the original issue you were having?

Notamini: it was a full rebuild so I have to adjust the bands for setup . Was a little confused with the manuals explanation of 1-2 mm

Notamini: it was a full rebuild so I have to adjust the bands for setup . Was a little confused with the manuals explanation of 1-2 mm If you slacken off the levers, you will have 2 modes of movement, 1) is constricting the bands, (the bands sit on 3 cast points) 2) is slack in the lever mechanism, the adjustment is in the lever mechanism only. and the bands must NOT be constricted... moved off the cast points. |
