The cardan shaft has two joints on needle bearings. Rubber rings are used to prevent dirt from getting into the hinge joint.
The splined joint of the cardan shaft is lubricated with the lubricant placed in it, which must be replaced in accordance with the lubrication chart.
The splines are lubricated with a thin layer before assembly, and 18-20 grams of lubricant are placed in the bushing.
A rubber ring is installed to hold the lubricant and protect against dirt
During assembly, 0.8-0.9 grams of lubricant are placed in each needle bearing.
There is no need to replenish the lubricant in the bearing
In case of disassembling the cardan joint, the specified amount of lubricant must be placed in each bearing
When assembling the cardan shaft, it is necessary to ensure that the holes in the forks for the mounting wedges are in parallel planes.
The axes of the fork holes for the bearings must lie in the same plane.
The retaining rings must be securely installed in the bearing grooves.
