MIDDLE GEAR
5-73
TIP
While carefully tightening the middle driven shaft
bearing housing bolts in stages and in a criss-
cross pattern, turn the middle driven shaft back
and forth until the dial gauge reads 0.10–0.20
mm (0.0039–0.0079 in).
6. Measure:
• Crankcase-to-middle-driven-shaft-bearing-
housing clearance
(with a thickness gauge)
7. Select:
• Middle driven pinion gear shim(s) “1”

a. Shims can only be selected in 0.05 mm incre-
ments, therefore round off to the hundredth’s
digit of the calculated thickness and select
the appropriate shims with the following
chart.
b. For example, the clearance between the
crankcase and the middle driven shaft bear-
ing housing is 0.42 mm. Therefore, the chart
instructs you to round off the 2 to 0. Thus, you
should use one 0.40 mm shim.
Shims are supplied in the following thickness-
es.

ALIGNING THE MIDDLE GEAR
TIP
Aligning the middle gear is necessary when any
of the following parts are replaced:
• Crankcase
• Middle drive shaft
• Middle driven shaft bearing housing
1. Select:
• Middle drive pinion gear shim(s) “1”
• Middle driven pinion gear shim(s) “2”
TIP
Select the middle driven gear shim(s) “2” by cal-
culating the middle drive gear shim thickness
and then measuring the middle gear backlash.
