A life-long lubricated ball bearing, sealed on both


sides is required for permanent input shaft guidance. 016 856

The seal material must be resistant to temperatures of


between –40 and +150 °C. The roller bearing grease
must also be resistant to temperatures of between –40
and +150 °C. The seal material must be resistant to Dial gauge C

transmission mounting may be used for such E
purposes. The nominal strength values defined for the
screw design is housing material GD-ALSI9CV3.

Transmission mountings on the vehicle frame must

Additional mounting point E possible, but not
necessary – even in ZF auxiliary units.

installation drawing. C E

The screws used for the transmission mounting must


comply with 8.8 quality. The specified tightening A

VDI 2230 for mounting points C and E.

NOTE
➢ Other threaded bores must not be used as
mounting points on the ZF-AS TRONIC.
➢ The minimum screw-in depth at mounting point C
must be 32 mm.
➢ The maximum vertical loading permitted at point
E is ± 3g. Otherwise E will have to be supported.

The bending torque of the bearing blocks on the
mounting face C must not exceed the limit value of
1900 Nm.
