Installing the Crankshaft

crankcase, pull off the impulse hose
(1). Push out the grommets (2) and

2.5 mm (0.1 ") figure stamps.

lead (1), bumper strips (2), spiked
bumper (3), stud (4) and oil suction
hose (5) with pickup body.
• Unscrew the annular buffer (1)
and disconnect cord (2) of filler
cap (3).
• Use a 5 mm (0.2") drift to push
out the vent valve.
