A . General description
This may or may not be fitted on the tractor depending on the engine front axle model. The front axles mounted on the 4WD tractors consist of: - a centre housing containing the differential unit and the differential lock system, as well as the transmission shafts, - at each end, a hub assembly containing the final drive units. The front axle is assembled to the front frame of the tractor by means of a pivot which adapts to the unevenness of the ground. Drive is transmitted from the rear axle to the front axle by a transmission shaft. Engagement is ensured by an electrohydraulically controlled multidisc clutch. The differential unit is held by two half-bearings mounted on a suitable support allowing the crownwheel and pinion to be adjusted. The bevel gear is supported by two bearings and is adjusted using shims. The wheel hubs containing the final drives are held in place by two tapered roller bearings and driven by a hydraulically-controlled steering gear.

Description
The final drive unit comprises a swivel housing (47) linked to the front axle housing by two pivot pins (7)(11). The wheel hub (22) turns on two tapered roller bearings whose cups (23) (19) are force-fitted into the hub. The cones (18) (25) are also force-fitted. The bearings (18) (19) (23) (25) are not adjustable. The parts are manufactured with machining tolerances requiring no further adjustment or shimming. Drive from the front differential is transmitted to the wheel hub via the universal joint shaft assembly (10), sun gear (28), planet gears (38) and ring gear (44). This is held in position by two snap rings (24) (26) on the ring gear carrier (42). The ring gear carrier is force-fitted to the housing (47) and locked by the central nut (27). The planet gear pins (41) are held in rotation in the planet carrier by the flange (53). On AG 105 axles, the planet gears are equipped with a double row of needle rollers separated by a spacer. For improved performance, the seal rings are fitted with double lips. Sealing of the hub/housing is ensured by a cassette seal (45), and sealing of the universal joint shaft/housing is provided by the seal (8) and the protective ring (40). Sealing of the drive unit and the swivel housing is ensured by the seal (16) and the sealing of the swivel bearings in the swivel housing by the seals (6) and (12).

Description
The crownwheel and pinion assembly containing the differential lock mechanism (Hydralock) is fitted in a housing (7) comprising two half-bearings (43) fixed by screws (42). The pinion is positioned at the rear of the housing on two opposing tapered roller bearings. It is adjusted in position using shims (8) located behind the head bearing. The bearings are adjusted using shims (2) inserted between the spacer (45) (if fitted) and the bearing cone (5). Tightness is ensured by a lip seal (4) and an "O" ring (40) fitted on the pinion. The differential comprises two planet gears (38) and a pin (36). The ring gear/pinion clearance is obtained using shims (22) placed behind the cup (29). The housing and ring gear assembly preload is obtained using the spline nut (32).

4WD GPA20 clutch
A . General
The front axle clutch assembly is fitted in the lower part of the rear axle housing. An inspection cover located under the housing provides access to the mechanism, which comprises: - a shaft (25) turning on two tapered roller bearings fitted in the bore of the axle housing, - a hydraulic clutch assembly attached to the rotating shaft - a bell gear (15) centred on the shaft by a ring (43), driving the clutch discs (36). The helical bell gear (15) is constantly meshed to the gear (7) on the pinion. The shaft is shimmed to obtain an operating clearance between 0 and 0.10 mm using shims (20) positioned between the cap (22) and the cup (18).
B . Operation
Declutching
The 4WD solenoid valve sends the 17 bar pressure into the shaft (25) via a channel drilled in the axle housing and the ring (11). The cover plate (30) moves on the hub (40) and pulls the bell (42) which compresses the Belleville washers (34) and (35), releasing the discs (36). The bell gear (15) attached to the ring (43) turns idle on the shaft.
Clutch
The pressure drop releases the Belleville washers, which push the bell (42) so that it becomes attached to the bell gear (15), which in turn drives the shaft (25). The oil then returns to the housing via the solenoid valve.

A . General description
This may or may not be fitted on the tractor depending on the engine front axle model. The front axles mounted on the 4WD tractors consist of: - a centre housing containing the differential unit and the differential lock system, as well as the transmission shafts, - at each end, a hub assembly containing the final drive units. The front axle is assembled to the front frame of the tractor by means of a pivot which adapts to the unevenness of the ground. Drive is transmitted from the rear axle to the front axle by a universal joint shaft. Engagement is ensured by an electrohydraulically controlled multidisc clutch. The differential unit is held by two half-bearings mounted on a suitable support allowing the crownwheel and pinion to be adjusted. The bevel gear is supported by two bearings and is adjusted using shims. The wheel hubs containing the final drives are held in place by two tapered roller bearings and driven by a hydraulically-controlled steering gear.

I . Wheel alignment
44. Place two identical straight bars, each one metre long, along the sides of the ring gear and lock them on the wheel hub stud using two nuts (Fig. 47). 45. Measure the distance M in mm between the ends of the bars (Fig. 49). NOTE: Keep the minimum value by oscillating the measurement point. 46. Ensure that the deviation in measurement A between the ends of the wheel hub diameters does not exceed the permissible values (see chapter 8). Measured value M taken at the ends of the bars must depend on the ratio between the length of the bar and the diameter of the flange: - Alignment (see chapter 8) = A0-2 - Measurement deviation = M0-5.

J . Adjusting the steering angle

49. Use the bars fitted to adjust alignment and a long bar pressing against the machined part of the central body (gear side) so that the two bars form an acute angle corresponding to the maximum steering lock position (Fig. 52). 50. Adjust the goniometer to the required steering angle (see chapter 8) and position it on the long bar. Move one side of the ring gear to obtain the angle defined by the goniometer and formed by the ring gear and the long bar (Fig. 53). 51. Adjust the mechanical steering stop by tightening or loosening the special screws (Fig. 54), then lock them to the required torque (see chapter 8) using the counter-nut. Lock steering in the other direction and repeat this procedure (Fig. 54).

Fig. 23
8B12.11
29. Assembly diagram for tools ref. CA119182 and CA119228 (see J) on the differential housing supports. Using a depth gauge, measure distance B (between the bearing pin and the bearing point of the pinion head or bearing base) (Fig. 24). 30. To determine the necessary thickness S between the pinion and the bearing, subtract the value V engraved on the pinion head (V = specified taper distance) from the measured value B (Fig. 25): S=B-V 31. Select the required thickness S from the range of shims available and insert the chosen shim under the pinion head. NOTE: Ensure that it is fitted correctly. Range of shims Thickness 2.5 2.6 2.7 2.8 2.9 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 Quantity Fig. 24
32. After inserting the correct shim with its chamfer facing the pinion, force fit the bearing at the end of the pinion pin using special tool ref. CA715004 (see J) and a press, ensuring that it is seated correctly. Fit the shims and a new flexible spacer (Fig. 26). NOTE: Systematically fit a new flexible spacer.
Fig. 25
Fig. 26
8B12.12
33. Insert the bevel gear assembly into the differential housing (axle beam internal side) and the second bearing cone at the end of the pinion, on the opposite side. Force fit the second bearing using special tool ref. CA715004 (see J) and a hammer. It is recommended that you exert resistance against the striking action of the tool, by using a hammer for example (Fig. 27). 34. Place a retaining washer and screw a new nut onto the end of the pinion (Fig. 28). 35. Screw the nut on with the wrench ref. CA119099 while holding the pinion in place with the tool ref. CA715022 (see J) (Fig. 29). WARNINGS: The tightening torque is determined by the bearing preload measurement. Gradually tighten the nut. NOTE: If too much tightening torque is applied, replace the flexible spacer and restart the operation. When checking bearing preload, it is advisable to gently tap both ends of the pinion with a rubber hammer to make the bearing seating easier.

Fig. 28
Fig. 29
8B12.13
36. Measure the torque P of the tapered roller bearings of the pinion (Fig. 30). Shimming is carried out by gradually increasing the tightening torque of the nut, taking care not to exceed the recommended value. WARNING: All torques must be measured without the seal. P = 1.82 to 2.72 Nm 37. When the torque value is reached, peen the nut with a hammer and chisel (Fig. 31).
Fig. 30
Fig. 31
8B12.14
H . Reassembling the differential unit

38. Mount the new tapered roller bearings on the half-bearings using special tool ref. CA115093 and a hammer (see J) (Fig. 32). 39. Position one of the half bearings on a workbench and install the internal parts (thrust washer, sun gear, planet gears, spider) as shown in the figure. Insert the pin into its housing, holding the planet gears and spider correctly in place (Fig. 33). 40. Lock the pin by inserting the locating dowel in the hole provided on the bearing and pin. Turn the pin manually to align the hole of the dowel with that of the bearing (Fig. 34). NOTE: Definitively position the locating dowel.
Fig. 32
Fig. 33
Fig. 34
8B12.15
41. Position all the internal parts in the bearing: planet gears, discs and counter-discs as shown in the illustration (Fig. 35). 42. Fit new "O" rings in the seatings provided on the piston and on the differential cover plate. Insert the piston and fit the cover plate in the differential housing (Fig. 36). 43. Apply a film of Loctite 476 between the bevel ring gear and the differential housing surface. Position the bevel ring gear on the cover plate, apply Loctite 270 to the threads and attach the assembly, tightening the screws to a torque of 70 Nm (Fig. 37).
Fig. 35
Fig. 36

8B12.16
I . Refitting the differential housing assembly

44. Fit the external tapered roller bearing cups on the two differential bearings and install the washer and spacer on the crownwheel and pinion side with new seals, previously smeared with a thin layer of grease (Fig. 38). 45. Before positioning the differential unit in the differential housing, install a new seal B and washer A at the bearing base on the bevel ring gear side, over the oil hydraulic port. Fit the unit assembly on the differential housing (Fig. 39). NOTE: Take care not to invert the external cups of the tapered roller bearings and ensure that the bevel ring gear assembly is fitted on the correct side. 46. Move the differential assembly so that the bevel ring gear can be positioned on the pinion. Ensure that all rings E are in position in their seatings and place both half-bearings D on their seats, following the marks made during disassembly. Lock the two half-bearings with their screws C (Fig. 40).
Fig. 38
Fig. 39
Fig. 40
8B12.17
47. Assemble and tighten the two adjustment nuts in the differential housing using special tools ref. CA119030 and CA119149 (see J) to eliminate the backlash and slightly preload the differential bearings (Fig. 41). NOTE: As the two nuts are different, take care to return them to their original positions relative to the bevel ring gear. Check that the bearings are correctly mounted in their seats, and, if necessary, tap them gently with a rubber hammer to secure them in place. Place a dial gauge with a magnetic stand on the differential housing and move the dial gauge feeler pin until it comes into contact with a ring gear tooth at a 90 angle (Fig. 42). 48. Lock the pinion and move the ring gear alternately to the right and left, using the dial gauge to measure the backlash between the pinion and the ring gear. Repeat the operation on at least two teeth, turning the ring gear, to calculate an average value. Check that the measured backlash value is within the permissible tolerances: 0.18 to 0.23 mm Fine-tune the shimming by adjusting the two nuts with special tools CA119030 and CA119149 (see J) (Fig. 43).
Fig. 41
Fig. 42
Fig. 43
8B12.18
49. When tightening nuts, always remember that: - if the measured backlash is lower than the permissible tolerance, the nut on the bevel ring gear side must be loosened and the opposite screw must be screwed to the same value. - if the measured backlash is higher than the permissible tolerance, the nut on the side opposite the bevel ring gear side must be loosened and the screw on the other side must be screwed to the same value. 50. When the backlash between the pinion and ring gear has been adjusted, check that the bearing preload of the differential unit is minimal. Repeat the sequence of steps described above until the required conditions are met. 51. Once the correct backlash has been obtained between the pinion and ring gear, measure the total bearing torque T (pinion-bevel ring gear system). The measured value must remain within the following limits: T= (P+1.82) to (P+2.12) N.m where P represents the actual measured pinion torque (see G). WARNING: All torques must be measured without the seal. If the measured value is outside the permissible tolerances, check the assembly of each part carefully and adjust the differential housing adjustment nuts: - if the total torque is lower than the permissible values, tighten both nuts identically without modifying the backlash between the pinion and ring gear - if the total torque is higher than the permissible values, loosen both nuts identically without modifying the backlash between the pinion and ring gear.

General information
52. To test the marking of the crownwheel and pinion teeth, apply a tiny amount of paint to the ring gear. This marking test must be carried out systematically on the bevel ring gear teeth and on each face (Fig. 47). 53. OK = Correct contact If the crownwheel and pinion are adjusted correctly, a uniform layer of paint is left on the surfaces of the teeth (Fig. 48): - Z: Excessive contact at the tip of the teeth Move the pinion closer to the ring gear then move the ring gear away to correct the backlash. - X: Excessive contact at the base of the teeth Move the pinion away from the ring gear, then move the ring gear closer to correct the backlash. 54. Corrective action (Fig. 49): 1 Move the pinion in the direction of the arrow to adjust an X type contact. 2 Move the pinion in the direction of the arrow to adjust a Z type contact.

55. When the shimming procedure is complete, fit the nut retainers with their screws and tighten to the required torque (13 Nm) using a torque wrench (Fig. 50). WARNING: The nut and its corresponding counter-nut are different on the ring gear side and the opposite side of the differential unit; turn the nuts slightly to align them with their retainers. 56. Tighten the screws of the two half-bearings with a torque wrench to the required torque (266 Nm) (Fig. 51). 57. Before bringing two surfaces into contact, ensure that both are perfectly clean. Degrease and clean them with suitable cleaning products. Apply a thin film of Loctite 510 to the mating surface between the axle beam and the differential housing. Fit the differential housing on the axle housing and screw to the required torque (169 Nm) (Fig. 52).

A . General
The tractors are fitted with a fixed front axle. Drive is transmitted from the front axle clutch located in the rear axle via a transmission shaft. On 6-cylinder models, the transmission shaft has a universal joint and the front axle pivot is raised. The shaft is divided into two sections. The section linked to the 4WD unit by a sleeve is fixed. The front part of the transmission shaft has a universal joint, allowing the axle to oscillate on its raised pin. The two sections of the transmission shaft are linked by a castellated nut (11) and supported by a bearing (6) at gearbox level. The front frame supports the front axle pivot. The pivot front bearing is removable on all models, while the rear bearing is part of the front frame assembly.

26. Remove the 45 kg front weights (if fitted). Immobilise the tractor. Apply the hand brake. Place safety chocks on either side of the rear wheels as shown in Fig. 7. REMINDER: Some tractors may be fitted with a front power take-off. In this case, it will be necessary to remove it in order to separate the front axle from the frame (12). NOTE: In certain conditions, the centre weight (1) of 100 kg (Fig. 6) may obstruct the removal of the bearing support. For this configuration, strip out the internal parts at the lower part of the grille to gain access to the weight. Take out the central M20 screw (2) (Fig. 6) and lift the weight slightly using a suitable lifting tool to release it from the support.

Removing the support (15) and the front axle
27. Remove the guards (2) (2A) (Fig. 3). 28. Raise the tractor along the axis of the front axle housing using a jack with sufficient lifting capacity. Remove the front wheels.
CAUTION: Place a fixed axle stand under the lower engine housing. 29. Mark the steering hoses connection and detach them from the ram. 30. Disconnect the front differential lock control hose. 31. Sling the front axle using suitable straps (Fig. 7). 32. Remove the screws (21) (Fig. 3). 33. Pull the front axle assembly complete with bearing support (15) forwards along the axis of the axle beam (Fig. 7) (position 1) and remove the front axle (position 2). 34. Note the features, order and position of the washers (13) (14) and the direction of the chamfers and remove them.

Refitting
Check point 35. Clean all components and check the condition of (Fig. 3): - the pivot pin at each end - the washers (13) (14) - the friction rings (17) (18) - the seal (16). 36. Slide the washers (13) (14) lightly smeared with bearing grease onto the front and rear ends of the pivot pin. Position the washers in the order noted during step 34. 37. Sling the front axle (Fig. 7). Moderately lubricate the ends of the pivot pin and fit the support (15) at the front of the pivot pin (Fig. 3). NOTE: Before refitting the front axle assembly, check that there is no excess grease in the cavity of the second axle beam pivot on the front frame. When refitting the front axle assembly, any such excess grease will be compressed, and may hinder insertion of the pivot pin into its bearing. 38. Refit the front axle and support (15) assembly. 39. Push the assembly hard until it comes into contact with the second axle beam pivot. 40. Thrust the support (15) against the front axle assembly (22) to eliminate the clearance between supports and axle housing as much as possible. 41. Fit the screws lightly smeared with Loctite 270 or equivalent and tighten to a torque of 520 - 640 Nm. Check point 42. Check that the front face of the pivot pin is almost level with the front edge "F" of the bearing support (15) (Fig. 8). 43. Visually check for the presence of the grease nipple on the left-hand side of the front frame (12) (second axle beam pivot) and on the support (15) (first axle beam pivot) (Fig. 3).

4WD GPA20 clutch
A . General
The front axle clutch assembly is fitted in the lower part of the rear axle housing. An inspection cover located under the housing provides access to the mechanism, which comprises: - a shaft (25) turning on two tapered roller bearings fitted in the bore of the axle housing, - a hydraulic clutch assembly attached to the rotating shaft - a bell gear (15) centred on the shaft by a ring (43), driving the clutch discs (36). The helical bell gear (15) is constantly meshed to the gear (7) on the pinion. The shaft is shimmed to obtain an operating clearance between 0 and 0.10 mm using shims (20) positioned between the cap (22) and the cup (18).
B . Operation
Declutching
The 4WD solenoid valve sends the 17 bar pressure into the shaft (25) via a channel drilled in the axle housing and the ring (11). The cover plate (30) moves on the hub (40) and pulls the bell (42) which compresses the Belleville washers (34) and (35), releasing the discs (36). The bell gear (15) attached to the ring (43) turns idle on the shaft.
Clutch
The pressure drop releases the Belleville washers, which push the bell (42) so that it becomes attached to the bell gear (15), which in turn drives the shaft (25). The oil then returns to the housing via the solenoid valve.
