Abstract
A precision gear reduction assembly for a gear train assembly for a gear train incorporates a backlash control in which the intermediate gear shaft has one end only mounted within an eccentric bushing. The bushing provides for the adjustment of the intermeshing of the final two gears of the gear train by tilting the intermediate shaft slightly as the bushing is rotated to achieve the desired degree of backlash control.
