Measure in 3.5 mm (0.1378 inch) from the front housing inside surface
Illustration 5 g01456048
Remove 3.5 mm (0.1378 inch) of material from the inside surface (3) of the front housing.
Conversion to the new wider cam gear and idler gear assembly requires some modifications to the front gear housing. The inside surface of the front housing must be machined. Illustration 5 shows the inside surface of the front housing.
