Start with an 0.035" shim between the pinion gear and the bearing.
There is no standard depth, as depth is the opinion of the operator who runs the gears on a Gleason machine. If there is no backlash spec given, start with 0.008".

Check with T & D products they have a great pinion depth setting tool kit. In that kit are instructions on how to measure the depth on a stock style gear set that does not have the needed information. I have the kit and use it regularly it is a great tool.
