AV system (AV housing, annular buffers)

The AV system will be modified from machine num-

ber X 37 266 391 to further optimize its vibration
damping characteristics. Softer annular buffers will              1
be installed in the clutch housing and AV housing                                      3

for this purpose. The AV housing has also been                                                           2
modified to increase the gap between it and the
clutch housing.

Service notes

Do not combine component parts of the
original and new AV housings.
                                                                  1

The new annular buffers (item 2) may only be
installed in the new version of the AV housing
since the parts of the housing could otherwise rub                                                           2
against one another and cause wear.                                                   4

Most of these PDFs embed fonts with a shifted character map, so the text above was recovered rather than copied — read it as a faithful but imperfect transcription, and treat the page image above each block as the authority where the two disagree — the figures exist only there, because they are vector drawings that text extraction cannot keep.
