Generator gear installation

When fitting a gear on the generator, with the key in place and retaining pin in place before peening , , how much clearance is acceptable to eliminate gear wobble ?

What you really have to be careful of is to make sure you slide the Bendix on without popping that key out the back and into your transmission.
