This manual is intended for skilled personnel who have been trained by ZF Friedrichshafen AG to carry out
maintenance and repair work on ZF products.
This manual deals with the standard ZF product in accordance with the state of development on the date of
issue.
However, due to continuing development of the product, repair work might require work practices and test or adjust-
ment data which are not contained in this manual. We therefore recommend that work done on your ZF product is
carried out only by skilled mechanics who have had their practical and theoretical knowledge updated on a regular
basis at our Service training courses.
Service points equipped by ZF Friedrichshafen AG all over the world offer you:
1. Well-trained personnel
2. Specified equipment, e.g. special tools
3. Genuine ZF spares, to our latest specifications
All work performed at these service points is carried out conscientiously and with care.
Repair work carried out at ZF service points is guaranteed in accordance with the prevailing contractual
conditions.
Damage resulting from work performed by non-ZF personnel in an improper and unprofessional manner, together
with follow-on costs caused by such work, is excluded from the contractual guarantee agreement. This also applies
where genuine ZF spares have not been used.

TRANSMISSION DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION
ZF-Ecomid 16 S 109 synchromesh transmissions have been especially developed for use in upper mid-range
commercial vehicles.
16 S 109 transmissions mainly comprise:
– a fully-synchromesh four-gear section
– an integrated reverse gear
– a rear-mounted planetary range-change mechanism
– an integrated front-mounted splitter
In addition ZF Friedrichshafen AG can offer the following optional add-ons for these transmissions
– a ZF engine-dependent PTO
– various ZF clutch-dependent PTOs,
– a drive for an emergency steering pump or dual-circuit steering pump
– or a separate heat exchanger for extreme applications.
REPAIR MANUAL
The Repair Manual shows how to repair ZF-Ecomid 16 S 109 synchromesh transmissions.
Structure of the Repair Manual:
Section 1: adjustment data, tightening torques, spring characteristics and an illustrated list of specified
ZF special tools.
Section 2: description of transmission repair procedure, broken down into work steps.
General Work Instructions
Maintain cleanliness in all work, and carry out all work to a proper professional standard. After removing a transmis-
sion from the vehicle, clean the outside thoroughly before opening the housing.
Always use the tools specified by ZF.
Clean all components after dismantling. Pay particular attention to corners, recesses and angles of housings and
covers. Carefully remove all traces of old sealing compound and gaskets.
Check that lube oil feed bores, grooves and pipes are clear. They must be free of deposits, foreign matter and anti-
corrosion agents. Take special care to remove anti-corrosion agents from new parts.
General Notes 16 S 109

7
All parts which cannot be removed without being damaged must always be replaced with new parts (e.g. shaft seals,
O-rings, piston sealing rings, flange packing, protective caps, etc.). Parts such as ball or roller bearings, thrust wash-
ers, synchronizer parts, etc., which are subject to wear during normal operation, must be inspected by a competent
person, who should decide whether or not they can be re-used.
Fit gaskets dry, i.e. free from oil and grease. Joints without gaskets should be sealed with an oil and heat resistant
mastic sealing compound (e.g. WEVO-L 100 A).
During assembly, comply with all adjustment data, checking data and tightening torques.
After completing repairs, fill the transmission with transmission oil. For the procedure and approved oils, see the
transmission operating manual and List of Lubricants TE-ML 02, which are available from any ZF After-Sales Ser-
vice point.
After filling the transmission with oil, tighten the oil level check plug and oil drain plug to the specified torques.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD !
Lubricants and cleaning agents must not be allowed to enter the ground, the water table or the sewage system.
• Request safety information for the products concerned from your local environmental protection
authority, and follow any instructions herein at all times.
• Always collect used oil in a suitably large container.
• Always dispose of used oil, clogged filters, lubricants and cleaning agents in accordance with
environmental protection laws.
• Always observe manufacturer instructions when dealing with lubricants and cleaning agents.

working practices could damage the product.
DANGER This is used when lack of care could lead to
serious injury or death.
NOTE
Read this manual carefully before starting any tests or repair work.
CAUTION
Pictures, drawings and components do not always represent the original object, but are used to illustrate
working procedures.
Pictures, drawings and components are not to scale, and no information about size and weight should be
inferred (even within a complete illustration).
Always follow the working steps as described in the text.
NOTE
After completion of repair work and testing, skilled mechanics must satisfy themselves that the product is
functioning correctly.

Tightening torques for bolts and nuts from ZFN 148
This Standard applies for bolts to DIN 912, DIN 931, DIN 933, DIN 960, DIN 961 and for nuts to DIN 934.
This Standard contains data on tightening torques (MA) for bolts in strength categories 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 and nuts in
strength categories 8, 10 and 12.
Surface condition of bolts: heat-treated blackened finish and oiled or galvanized and oiled or galvanized, chrome-
plated and oiled.
Tighten screws using a calibrated signal or pointer-type torque wrench.
