• Piston pin “2”
• Piston “3”
ECA
NOTICE
Do not use a hammer to drive the piston pin
out.
TIP
• Before removing the piston pin clip, cover the
crankcase opening with a cloth to prevent the
piston pin clip from falling into the crankcase.
• Before removing the piston pin, deburr the
piston pin clip’s groove and the piston pin’s
bore area. If the piston pin groove is deburred
and the piston pin is still difficult to remove,
use the piston pin puller set “4”.
2. Remove:
• Top ring
• Oil ring
TIP
When removing a piston ring, open the end gap
with your fingers and lift the opposite end gap
of the piston ring over the piston crown.
