Abundantly lubricate the seats for the pin bolt with
motor oil and the circlip
5
in the left pin bolt seat,
being careful to position it so that the lug on the
circlip inserts itself in the specific seat on the pi-
ston.
In order to identify the right and left side of the
piston, just use as a reference the arrow
A
stamped
on the piston crown which must face the exhaust
manifold.
3.17.13 APPLICATION OF PISTON TO
CYLINDER
To couple the piston to the cylinder, place the cylin-
der while keeping the top facing upwards. Oil the
cylinder with plenty of motor oil.
Prepare the ring compression band
A
(code
006140170000)
as shown in the figure.
Press the green locking lever
B
and turn the hex key
anti-clockwise until the band reaches a dimension
near that of the piston. Oil the inside of the band
abundantly and insert the piston with all its rings
inside of it. Press the green locking lever again and
turn the hex key clockwise to tighten the rings and
piston well.
Attention:
the compression band has edges which
could be sharp. Be very careful when handling it.
