Need help translating Japanese Phoenix High Protection Gear Instructions

Hello everybody,

I'm looking for someone who can translate a technical manual for me. One page of text and one page with diagrams and minor text for the Phoenix High Protection Gears.

As you may or may not know, the Phoenix gears feature an "auto-shimming" function, controlled by precise placement of shims, springs, bushings, bearings and spacers.

As you can see in the diagrams below, there are two different setups shown (diagram A vs diagram C.) I need to figure out what setup is for what. I have a feeling that one setup is for use with bushings whereas the other one is for use with bearings - although I could be wrong.
That's why I need help with translation.

Also, in the second image, there is a lengthy amount of text that may provide a gleam of information or understanding that I may not have considered before. This is not a standard gear set and is rather complicated (and expensive!). I'd rather get the full understanding of the text before I go ahead and risk destroying this set.

Thanks in advance.

Brian, check www.filairsoft.com. I recall reading a thread in their forum about these gears and setting the auto-shim. I also recall someone saying the little springs tend to give out and the auto-shim goes out of alignment after about 100,000 rounds or so. At this time, Phoenix offers no replacement springs.

*edit*

I can't find the exact thread and I have to run, but here's what i got:

Phoenix:
+ Strong material, nicely finished (but not extensively tested by me)
+ auto-shim system
- auto-shim system has some problems on bevel gear (washer may get stuck after short time)
- expensive, only good priced on ultra torque ratio

If you are using original plastic bushing, please follow diagram A. If you are using 6mm bearing by phoenix, please follow diagram C

These can be used with plastic bushings????? NUTSO.

I'm switching back to those. They're WAY quieter.



(note: i'm not actually going to do that. but... maybe i might if I get KERrRaAaAaZaY one day.)
