Additional information

This spacer, part number 711-0396, fits between components to maintain proper clearance and alignment during operation. Correct spacing helps prevent binding, uneven wear, and excess movement at the mounting point.

If parts rub against each other, wobble, or show uneven wear, a worn, damaged, or missing spacer may be the cause. Deformation or excessive play around the fastener can also indicate spacing issues.

Before starting the repair, disconnect the power source appropriate for your equipment to prevent accidental operation. Install the spacer in the correct position, then tighten fasteners evenly so components remain aligned and secure.
