Overhaul of the main bearings
The main bearings have are of the angular contact type with offset inner races so that the balls transmit loads from one
groove to the other along straight lines at an angle to the axis of the bearing. Angular contact thrust bearings are designed
to withstand combined loads (radial and axial loads).
Bearings of this type can bear thrust loads in one direction only. In fact, under the action of a radial load inside the bearing,
an axial force is created that must be counterbalanced by an axial force acting in the opposite direction; that is why these
bearings are generally fitted back to back in pairs.
To renew the bearings proceed as follows:
- heat the crankcase half in an oven to
100
°C;
- remove the bearing using a drift and hammer;
- install the new bearing (while the crankcase is still hot) keeping it perfectly square in its seat using a tubular drift that only bears
on the outer ring of the bearing;
- allow the parts to cool and check that the bearing is securely seated in the crankcase.
Important
On worn engines, the bearing holder may no longer be a tight fit in the crankcase half.
Check that the interference fit between the crankcase and the bushes, with bearings (4) and (23) installed, is not less than
0.03
mm, otherwise the crankcase halves must be renewed.
Important
After installing new main bearings, shim the crankshaft as described in the paragraph “Shimming the shafts” and “Reassembly
of the crankcase halves” in this section.
