⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Gear engagement is difficult or noisy
• Oil leaks from shaft or housing seals
• Bearing or gear noise develops
• Shift lever does not reach the full detent position

🛠️ Service Notes

• Work clean and dry — the reversing gear circulates its oil through everything in this kit, so grit introduced during assembly ends up in the gears and bearings
• Fit the new seals, gaskets and locking parts supplied with the kit and discard the corresponding old ones, including any that still look serviceable
• Inspect the flexible coupling, shift linkage, control cable and mountings while the gear is accessible; worn ones will undo the benefit of the new parts
• Refill with the oil grade and quantity specified for your reversing gear, then recheck the level after a short run once the new parts have taken up oil
• Confirm the gear engages fully and cleanly in both ahead and astern and returns properly to neutral before the boat is used
