All parts and subassemblies must be handled carefully to prevent nicking, scratching and denting. Close fitting parts may have proper clearance but can bind if they are nicked, scratched, or dented. Part s which depend upon smooth surfaces for sealing may leak if scratched. All parts should be carefully handled and protected during removal, cleaning, inspection, and installation of the units. All parts must be clean to permit effective inspection. It is ve ry important that no dirt or foreign material be allowed to enter the transmissions. Contractor will follow all applicable service limits, disassembly, repair and assembly procedures detailed in the latest edition of the Twin Disc service manual, bulletins and the latest cleaning procedure and parts cleaning procedures for this model gear.

Inspect bearings for roughness of rotation, Replace if its rotation is still rough after cleaning and oiling. Inspect bearings for scored, pitted, scratched, cracked, or chipped races, and for excessive wear of rollers or balls. If one of these defects is found, replace the bearing. Inspect bearing housing and shaft for grooved, burred, or galled conditions that would indicate that the bearing has been turning in the bore or on the shaft. If the damage cannot be repaired replace the defective part. Any bear ing that has been subjected to metal contamination must be closely inspected for metal particles. Metal particles will cause failure of the bearing. The presence of dirt or grit in the bearings is usually responsible for bearing failures, it is important t o keep bearings clean during removal and installation. Inspecting Cast Parts, Machined Surfaces ?????? Inspect bores for wear, scratches, grooves, and dirt. Remove scratches and burrs, Remove foreign matter, Replace parts that have scratches or grooves that cannot be removed. Inspect all oil passages for obstr uctions. If an obstruction is found, remove it. Inspect mounti ng faces for nicks, burrs, scratches, and foreign matter, remove such defects. If scratches cannot be removed with crocus cloth, replace the part. Inspect threaded openings for damaged threads. Replace housing or other cast parts that are cracked. Inspect all machined surfaces for damage that could cause oil leakage or other malfunction of the part. Rework or replace the defective parts. Inspecting Bushings, Thrust Washers: Inspect bushings for scores, burrs, roundness, sharp edges, and evidence of overheating. Remove scores, burrs, and sharp edges. If the bushing is out-of-round, deeply scored, or excessively worn, replace it. If it is n ecessary to cut out a defective bushing, do not damage the bore into which the bushing fits. Inspect thrust washers for distortion, scores, burrs, and wear. Replace if defective or worn. Inspect oil seals, Gaskets: Replace all seal rings, oil seals, and composition gaskets. Inspect hook type seal rings for wear, broken hooks, and distortion. Inspect Gears: Inspect gears for scuffed, nicked, burred, or broken teeth, if the teeth cannot be removed with a soft honing stone, replace the gear. Inspect gear teeth for wear that may have destroyed the original tooth shape. If this condition is found, replace the gear. Inspect the thrust face of gears for scores, scratches, and burrs. If the defect cannot be removed replace the gear. Inspect splined parts: Inspect for stripped, twisted, chipped, or burred splines. Remove burrs with a soft stone. Replace the part if other defects are found. Spline wear is not considered detrimental except where it affects tightness of fit of the spline parts. Inspect threaded parts for burred or damaged threads, inspect snap rings for nicks, distortion, and excessive wear. Inspect springs for signs of overheating, permanent set, or wear due to rubbing adjacent parts. Inspect clutch plates, friction-faced clutch plates for burrs, embedded metal particles, and severely pitted faces, excessive wear, cone, cracked, distortion, and damaged spline teeth. Inspect Swaged, interference-fit parts if there is evidence of looseness due to relative motion, the assembly shoul d be replaced. Inspect seal contact surfaces that contact the sealing area or lip of any seal. Roughness, scoring, pitting, or wear that will permit oil leakage or cause damage to the seal must be corrected. 4. (OPTIONAL) EXCHANGE ENGINES AND TRANSMISSIONS: Furnish to the Contracting Officer your cost for two, (2) Remanufactured Detroit Diesel 8V92 exchange engines for the M/V Launch Wheeler port and starboard main engines. Upon approval from the Contracting Officer, the Contractor will proceed as outlined, remove and install the exchange engines and transmissions.
