theres a large metal nut on the outside of the input shaft area, you can loosen it, and turn the internal part tight and back off 1/4" and lock it back in place and that will take up the slack.
Thanks for the info V30, I followed your instructions and it worked great. No more slack, exactly what I wanted !
