Wheels  and  Brakes

TO  REMOVE  THE  FRONT  WHEEL  (350  c.c.  Model)

With the front wheel clear of the ground, disconnect the front brake cable, then  remove

the  nut that secures the  brake torque arm to the front  brake cover  plate.  Release the

four nuts (No. 31, illustration  12),  unscrew the front wheel spindle right side sleeve nut,

then the wheel spindle can  be withdrawn,  leaving the wheel free to be taken away.

TO  REMOVE  THE  FRONT  WHEEL  (250  c.c.  Model)

Place  the  machine  on  the  centre  stand  and  disconnect  the front  brake  cable.
Release the two nuts at the  back of each fork slider which secure the bottom front mud-

guard stay, and tap the threaded end of the extension slightly to centralise the stay which

clamps on to the sleeve nut and spindle.  Take away the right side axle sleeve nut, then

the wheel spindle can be withdrawn and the wheel will then come away from the fork.

TO  REMOVE  REAR  WHEEL

Remove the fully enclosed chain guard  if fitted.  Disconnect speedo drive cable;  release

both  wheel spindle  nuts.  With  the  rider standing on  left side of the  machine,  lean the

machine  to  the  left  and  take  away  the  wheel.  When  refitting  ensure  speedo  drive  is

correctly  located.

HUBS  AND  BEARINGS

Both  hubs are greased  when  new and  no further lubrication  will  be  required  for 5,000

miles,  it  is  then  advisable  to  renew  the  grease,  the  old  grease  should  be  removed  by

washing in  petrol or paraffin.
When  dismantling  and  reassembling  the  hubs  refer  to  illustration  for  assembly  order.

If bearings show any signs of wear, fit replacements.

BRAKES

If the  brakes  are  correctly  adjusted  and  oil  is  not  used  to  lubricate  the  bearings,  the

brakes will  not require attention for many thousands of miles.  Petrol or paraffin should

not  be used to wash  brake shoes, these liquids have an adverse effect on  the linings and

braking efficiency will be lost.
Front  brake adjustment is effected  by a cable adjuster on  the  left  hand fork slider.
Rear brake adjustment  is effected  by a knurled  nut at the  rear end  of the  brake  rod.

BRAKE  PEDAL  ADJUSTMENT

To adjust the  position of the  pedal, slacken the  brake pedal  spindle nut,  move the pedal

to  the  desired  position,  hold  the  pedal  in  this  position  and  tighten  the  spindle  nut.
After  altering  the  pedal  position  check  the  brake  rod  adjustment.

REAR  BRAKE  ADJUSTMENT

With the rear wheel clear of the ground screw down the adjuster on the  rear brake  rod

until  the  brake  is  just  binding.  Then  unscrew the adjuster four to five  complete turns.

On  machines with a frame number before 5858, the brake adjuster should  be  unscrewed

eight complete turns.

TYRES

To obtain  maximum  mileage from  the tyres,  maintenance  should  be  regular and  pains-

taking.  Once a week check tyre pressures with a gauge and at the same time remove any

road  grit which  is wedged  in the treads.
A comprehensive  booklet  produced  by  Messrs.  Dunlops,  on  "How  to  keep your  motor

cycle tyres fit", which  includes  instructions on tyre  removal  and  refitting is Issued with

each new machine.  A table of minimum inflation  pressures for specified loads per tyre is

also included.  As a rough guide, and with a rider of average weight and normal equip-

ment, without a pillion  passenger, the pressures should  be  18 Ibs. for the front tyre and

22 Ibs. for the rear tyre.
