Update -- FIXED ! : Kanzaki Transmission Removal (F36 Yanmar 36mf30)
Posted: Sun Feb 28, 2021 3:05 pm
Question:
The Yanmar KM2P-1 Kanzaki transmission on my Freedom 36 needs service. I have watched numerous YouTube Videos and read manuals and I have made progress.
I have a Yanmar 3gmf30f and the Kanzaki transmission).
The Shift cable has been removed and is clear.
Misc Wires have been removed and all is clear.
The Shaft plate fully clear and I have the room I need to slide it back/off.
All the bolts holding the Transmission have been removed and I can rotate/turn the transmission a little to confirm nothing is holding it.
I am able to separate the Transmission from the Engine by about 1/16 of an inch and have used a couple of screwdrivers (see attached photo) to try and get the transmission to slide off. From how it looks in the videos/docs it should just slide off the engine gear/sprocket.
BUT- it does NOT slide off as I had hoped. I have stopped trying to widge/force it off and instead thought I would ask here.
Does anyone have any tips ? Am I missing something or need to take something else off ? I plan to bring it to Mack Boring in NJ when I get it off..
Thanks in advance for any guidance/help/magic tips.
Regards, Michael
