    (A) Machining Locator button
    (B) 289-4704 Plug (Avdel Plug)

  1. Locate machining locator button (A) shown in Illustration 1.

  2. Mark 1, 2, 3, 4 on the top of carrier and planet shaft starting from machining locator button (A) in the clockwise direction.

    Note: The marked locations will be used later to reassemble the gears, bearings, and shafts to their original locations.

  3. Remove and save the planet shafts, gears, and bearings from the carrier.

  4. Locate position to drill one 1.5 mm (0.06 inch) hole at 25 degrees to intersect with lube passage shown in the Illustration 3.

    Note: One drill hole per piece part.

  5. If a new 289-4704 Plug (avdel plug) and supplier tooling are available, remove avdel plug (B) shown in Illustration 2.

  6. Set carrier assembly on radial drill. Drill one 1.5 mm (0.06 inch) diameter hole to intersect lube passage.

    Note: One drill hole per piece part.

    Note: If required, use end mill of 1.5 mm (0.06 inch) diameter before drilling to a depth of 3 mm (0.12 inch).

    Note: Start drilling at the natural crease of the piece part geometry to aid ease of drilling.

  7. Blow out the chips and wash out.

    Note: Use port (C) to blow the chips, if avdel plug is not removed.

  8. Inspect the drilled hole using a flashlight or bore scope. Ensure that the hole is clear and has no debris.

  9. Install a new 289-4704 Plug if avdel plug (B) is removed in Step 5.

    Note: Ensure that the plug is not protruding from the hole. The plug must be flush with the top of the carrier.

  10. Reassemble gears, bearings, and planet shafts saved in Step 3. Install with new 3S-2708 Spring Pin at each location.
