3,7, Seal
At seal assembly, apply a light coat of lithium
grease on seal lips.
For bearing lubrication purpose, a gap of 1.0 mm
(.040 in) must be maintained between seals and
bearings.
When installing plain oil seals (seal without locat-
ing ring or without spacing legs), ensure to main-
tain a 1.0 mm (.040 in) gap. For seals with spacing
legs, install them against the bearing.

1,8, Upper Crankcase and Lower
Crankcase
Crankcase halves are factory matched and there-
fore, are not interchangeable or available as single
halves.
Prior to joining of crankcase halves, spray some
new injection oil (or equivalent) on all moving
parts of the crankshaft. Spray Primer N (P/N 413
7081 00) on one of mating surfaces. Let it dry for
10 to 20 minutes.
Apply paste gasket (P/N 413 7027 00) no. 5 on the
other mating surface.
NOTE: Primer N allows Loctite 515 to fully
cure on aluminum surfaces. It increases fill-
ing capacity and reduces curing time.
Position the crankcase halves together and tight-
en screws by hand then install and tighten arma-
ture plate on magneto side to correctly align
crankcase halves. Apply Loctite 242 on screw
threads and under head. Torque screws as speci-
fied following illustrated sequence.
1. Follow sequence shown 1 to 14: Torque to 29 N•m (21 lbf•ft)
15 and 16: Torque to 10 N•m (90 lbf• in )

CAUTION
Make sure drive pins of bearings are on ex-
