See that the mainshaft is pushed right home.
It may tighten in the felt washer inside the final
drive shaft nut.
The layshaft top gear and kickstarter pinion
should be assembled on the layshaft and the
kickstarter shaft and ratchet assembled on to it
before fitting the end cover. Do not forget the
washer on the layshaft between the kickstarter
pinion and the kickstarter shaft.
The joint between the gearbox and the inner
cover should be made with gold size, shellac or
a similar jointing compound.
Make sure that all parts are clean before
commencing assembly. In normal climates the
recesses in the gearbox should be packed with
soft grease and the box should be filled up to the
correct level with engine oil. (See Subsection
11.)
On no account must heavy yellow grease
be used.
