Replacement is a reversal of the above procedure.  On the 20A, 30 and 40 series Motodrive, when replacing the Control Cover Assembly, care must be taken to fit the prongs of the Shifting Yoke into the lugs of the Thrust Bearing Housing.  On the 600 series Motodrive, care must be taken to insert the Guide Pin into the Control Housing.  In all models except 20L ensure that the shifting yoke is properly seated on the shifting nut.  On the 20L, when replacing the Control Cover Assembly care must be taken to fit the Pin in the Shifting Screw into the Lugs of the Thrust Bearing Housing.
