ROYAL ENFIELD WORKSHOP MANUAL
Mount the crankshaft between centres and
true up to .0005 in. on either side of the shafts.
If the readings for the two shafts are high on
opposite sides, the error can be corrected by
gently tapping either or both of the flywheels.
If the readings are high on the same side of the
two shafts, it is probably due to dirt or foreign
matter in the joints and the crankshaft should be
dismantled again, carefully examined and cleaned
and re-assembled.
7. Reassembly of the Crankcase
Replace the outer roller races, etc., in the
crankcase halves as described in Subsection 4.
Fit the inner distance piece and the rollers and
cage in the driving side crankcase.
Lay the thrust washer on the bearing.
Assemble the flywheel into the bearing, if
necessary using the sprocket nut with suitable
packing piece to draw the driving shaft through
the inner race(s) of the ball bearing(s).
Make sure that the crankcase face is clean and
apply jointing compound to it.
Put the thrust washer on the timing side shaft
and the rollers and cage.
Put the magdyno straps over the studs in the
timing side crankcase and place the latter in
position over the flywheel.
Bolt the two halves of the crankcase together,
making sure that the joint matches correctly so
that the cylinder base is flat.
