Service Limit

Make a measurement as follows. If it exceeds the specified service limit, replace the parts with new ones.

CAUTION:
  • Fix oil pump on a vise to make a measurement. At this time, hold oil pump with the least possible force between two wood pieces.
  • Do not set outside of flow control valve or pulley on a vise; otherwise outside or pulley might be deformed. Select properly sized wood pieces.
  1. Play of pulley shaft

    On condition: 

    1. P:  9.8 N (1.0 kg, 2.2 lb)

    Service limit: 

    Radial play (Direction <-->) 

    1. 0.4 mm (0.016 in) or less
      Fig 1: Checking Radial Play
      G02111173

      Axial play (Direction <-->) 

      1. 0.6 mm (0.024 in) or less

      G02111174
    2. Ditch deflection of pulley

      Service limit: 

      1. 1.0 mm (0.039 in) or less
      NOTE: Read the value for one surface of V ditch, and then the value for another off the dial.

    3. Resistance to rotation of pulley
    4. Service limit: 
      1. Maximum load;  9.22 N (0.94 kg, 2.07 lb) or less
      NOTE:
      • A rather higher value may be indicated when pulley starts turning.
      • Measure the load during rotation and make a judgment.
