PowerTilt PTS06
8.9 Removing the shaft
Notice!
Do not remove shaft 2 yet. The teeth of the component flanks are aligned
accordingly to ensure correct synchronisation. Correct synchronisation is
particularly important to ensure the correct functioning of the PowerTilt swivel
device.
☞ Turn the shaft clockwise once more and then slowly back counterclockwise.
Notice!
To pull shaft 2 more easily out of piston tube 3, tap the threaded end of the shaft
lightly with a plastic or rubber hammer until the shaft thread is visible.
☞ The ring gear of housing 1, piston tube body 3 and shaft 2 has dead centre marks. As a
rule, there are small marks at the front of the teeth and on the ring gear. The dead
centre marks of the shaft are possibly at the very bottom next to the spiral gear. The
dead centre marks of the piston tube can best be seen if the piston tube teeth are flush
with the ring gear in the housing.
☞ If the dead centre marks made at the factory cannot be found, mark the alignment
between the housing ring gear, the shaft and the piston tube body with a paint stick or a
permanent marker pen.
☞ Turn the shaft to release the teeth of the shaft from the teeth of the piston tube.
Caution!
Secure the shaft (heavy)!
☞ Avoid damage to the teeth.
