Two bearing Generator Flexible Coupling - Install
Rubber in Shear Type Coupling Installation
Note: Do not use any lubricant between inner and outer hubs of the coupling.
Verify the generator rotor end play. The rotor is to be located in the nominal center position during this process. The front face of the coupling, that is, the machined surface where the flexible disc bolts to, is 25 mm (1 inch) from the face of the flywheel.
Assemble the outer ring (1) to the flywheel. Refer to Illustration 1. Assemble the correct washers, that are supplied with the coupling, to the bolts. Position the washers with the beveled edge toward the bolt head. Torque the bolts to 200 N m (148 lb ft).

Install the flexible inner element (2) on the generator drive hub. Refer to Illustration 2. Torque the mounting bolts to 490 N m (361 lb ft) using the alternating pattern. Note: The flexible inner hub of the coupling is to be oriented with the steel flange facing toward the engine.

Slide the generator toward the engine, making sure the flexible rubber inner element (2) is correctly engaged in the teeth of the outer ring (1). Note: There is a small clearance between the driving and driven teeth in order to allow easier assembly. Do not use any lubricant during the assembly or during the use of the coupling.
Verify the axial position of the flexible rubber inner element (2). The element must not protrude out from the outer ring, or press against the flywheel. The element must be at the nominal position. The nominal position is approximately in the center of the outer ring (1). Adjust the generator rotor end play if necessary.
Align the generator and torque the rest of the assembly bolts as required. Rubber in Compression Type Coupling Installation
Note: Do not use any lubricant between inner and outer hubs of the coupling.
Adjust the generator end play. Note: Use a large pry bar in order to pry between the generator drive hub and the bearing bracket only. A significant force may be required to move the rotor initially. Ensure that there is no damage to any of the electrical components or to the generator windings.
Move the main rotor all the way forward.
Measure the axial distance from the mounting face of the close coupled adapter to the front mounting face of the generator drive hub.
Move the rotor all the way rearward.
Measure the axial distance from the mounting face of the close coupled adapter to the front mounting face of the generator drive hub.
Center the rotor by positioning the front mounting face of the generator drive hub at a point halfway between the two measurements plus or minus 1 mm (0.04 inch).
Prepare the coupling.
Place a wooden block on the floor that is the same width as the bolt pattern that is on the inner hub (6). Set the coupling on the wooden block with the cover plate (4) facing down. Note: The block should be supporting the inner member but not
