Our high-quality seals include input and output shaft seals and dynamic sealing solutions, designed to maintain fluid integrity, prevent leaks, and withstand high pressures and temperatures in marine environments. The oil cooler helps regulate transmission temperature, preventing overheating and extending the life of critical components. Its corrosion-resistant construction ensures durability, even in harsh marine conditions, keeping your MG5090A running smoothly. Working on the MG-5090A marine transmission requires close attention to safety. Mechanical systems under pressure or load can cause injury if mishandled. Always follow these critical safety guidelines before servicing: Wear proper PPE: Gloves, goggles, and steel-toe boots are a must. Disconnect power: Ensure the engine is turned off and cannot start during servicing. Allow cooling time: Components may be hot after operation—let them cool before disassembly. Avoid contamination: Keep tools and parts clean to prevent debris from entering the hydraulic system. Use lifting equipment: The MG-5090A is heavy. Use proper lifting gear to avoid injury or equipment damage. The MG-5090A is a reverse and reduction marine transmission with a hydraulic clutch pack system. Key components include: Input shaft and damper plate: Transmit engine torque to the clutch assembly. Clutch pack (forward and reverse): Engages the drive direction. Reduction gear set: Allows for torque multiplication and optimal RPM at the propeller. Oil pump and filter system: Provides internal lubrication and clutch actuation pressure. Oil cooler: Maintains temperature during operation. Control valve assembly: Distributes hydraulic pressure to shift clutches based on control signals. Understanding these elements is essential before beginning any service. Routine maintenance ensures the long-term reliability of the transmission. Here’s a general service schedule: Every 250 hours or 3 months (whichever comes first): Check oil level and condition Inspect control linkages Inspect for leaks or unusual noises Every 1,000 hours or 12 months: Change oil and replace filter Inspect and clean the cooler Inspect clutch operation Torque check on mounting bolts Every 3,000 hours or 36 months: Full internal inspection (bearings, gears, clutch discs) Replace worn clutch plates or seals Check shaft alignment Before beginning service, gather the following: Tools: Torque wrench (inch-lbs and ft-lbs range) Oil filter wrench Allen wrenches Snap ring pliers Pressure gauge (0–300 PSI) Feeler gauges Supplies: Premium transmission oil (as specified by Twin Disc or aftermarket equivalents) New filter element Gasket and seal kit (available at Diesel Pro Power) Rags and parts cleaner Loctite or thread sealant for bolts Routine inspection helps catch issues before they turn costly. Here’s what to check during every scheduled service: Oil color and smell: Milky oil suggests water contamination. Burnt smell indicates overheating. Vibration: Unusual vibration under load may indicate worn gears or misalignment. Engagement lag: Delayed engagement points to clutch wear or pressure loss. Oil leaks: Inspect all gaskets and seals, especially input/output seals and inspection covers. Bolt torque: Check all visible bolts for proper tightness, particularly the mounting bolts. Use a borescope for inspecting internal components through the inspection cover without disassembly. Regular oil changes are critical to transmission life. Follow this process: Warm up the transmission to operating temperature by running the engine briefly. This helps drain oil more efficiently. Turn off the engine and secure the vessel. Remove the drain plug located at the bottom of the case. Allow all oil to drain into a suitable container. Remove the inspection cover if needed to verify full drainage and inspect internal cleanliness. Replace the drain plug using a new washer if required. Remove the old oil filter using an oil filter wrench. Lubricate the new filter gasket with clean oil before installing. Refill with approved transmission oil through the fill cap on top of the transmission. Check oil level using the dipstick, with the engine idling in neutral. Be sure not to overfill—this can cause foaming and overheating. Oil filters keep particles from damaging the clutch packs and gears. Replace the filter every 1,000 hours or annually. Locate the spin-on filter—typically near the top of the housing. Use an oil filter wrench to remove the filter. Clean the sealing surface on the housing. Install the new filter and hand-tighten until the gasket contacts, then tighten an additional ¾ turn. Start the engine and verify there are no leaks. Diesel Pro Power offers aftermarket filter elements compatible with the MG-5090A. The oil cooler keeps the transmission operating within safe temperature ranges. Marine environments often introduce scale, salt, and debris into the cooling circuit. Isolate and remove the oil cooler from the vessel’s water and oil lines. Flush with fresh water and descaling solution. Backflush to dislodge debris and inspect for leaks. Pressure test the cooler to 30 PSI to check for integrity. Replace any failing lines or corroded hose clamps. Cooler failure is a leading cause of transmission damage—never skip this step during annual maintenance. Although hydraulic clutches require minimal adjustment, performance issues like slipping or harsh engagement may require inspection. Measure clutch engagement pressure with a hydraulic pressure gauge. You’ll need to tee into the pressure test port. Normal engagement pressure should be within factory specifications—typically around 250–300 PSI. If pressure is low, inspect the regulator valve and pump gear. Disassemble the clutch pack if symptoms of slipping or shuddering persist. Inspect the clutch discs and steel plates for glazing, wear, or warping. Replace all worn or heat-damaged parts with a clutch rebuild kit. For those unable to conduct internal clutch repairs, Diesel Pro Power also offers fully rebuilt MG-5090A transmissions ready to ship. Controls must move freely and without resistance. Mechanical or electronic control problems can mimic transmission failure. Inspect cable movement: Shift levers or electronic actuators should move the clutch valve lever fully into forward, neutral, and reverse. Lubricate mechanical linkages: Use marine grease. Inspect the detent mechanism: Ensure the clutch lever stays positively in gear. For electronic controls (like Twin Disc EC300): Run diagnostics through the control system to confirm proper shifting. Check for worn bushings or misalignment in the mechanical control brackets. Incorrect lever adjustment can prevent full clutch engagement and cause slippage. At the 3,000-hour service interval—or if noise/vibration is detected—internal inspection of the bearings and gears is recommended. To access internal components: Drain the oil completely. Remove the input shaft housing. Remove the inspection cover and side covers as required. Mark and remove gears and shafts, noting shim locations for reassembly. Inspect gear teeth for pitting or scoring. Inspect all bearings for play, noise, or signs of overheating. Replace all worn gears or bearings using a rebuild kit. If unsure of tolerances, it’s best to send the gear to a qualified marine transmission shop—or order a complete remanufactured MG-5090A. After replacing parts or cleaning components: Use assembly lube on bearings and shafts. Replace all gaskets and seals. Torque bolts to correct values—consult the OEM manual for each specific location. Recheck clutch pressures after the first hour of operation post-rebuild. Run the transmission in gear under load while docked to verify smooth operation. Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action Slipping in gear Low pressure, worn clutches Check hydraulic pressure, replace clutch pack Harsh shifting Contaminated oil, sticky valve Flush oil, inspect and clean shift valve No response in gear Control failure, low oil Check linkage and oil level Noise under load Gear damage, bearing wear Inspect gears and replace damaged parts Overheating Dirty cooler, low oil level Clean cooler, top off or replace oil Maintain a log of service intervals and parts replaced. Always use premium aftermarket parts from reliable suppliers such as Diesel Pro Power. If your MG-5090A transmission has undergone repeated clutch replacements, inspect engine alignment and propeller loading—issues upstream can cause premature wear. Do not delay oil changes; dirty or degraded oil is the #1 killer of marine gear life. For harsh environments or commercial vessels running over 1,000 hours per year, shorten your oil and filter intervals accordingly.
