29. Rotate each piston ring until the ring ends are
properly positioned on either side of the ring
keeper; then apply oil to the piston assemblies and
cylinder bores. Remove the rubber bands or hoses
from the connecting rods.
30. Install the dowel pins into the crankcase; then
place the cylinder base gasket into position on the
crankcase.
31. In turn on each cylinder, place a piston holder (or
suitable substitute) beneath the piston skirt and
square the piston in respect to the crankcase; then
using a ring compressor or the fingers, compress
the rings and slide the cylinder over the piston.
Remove the piston holder and seat the cylinder
firmly onto the crankcase.
NOTE: The cylinders should slide on easily. DO
NOT force the cylinders on.
CAUTION
Incorrect installation of the piston rings will result in
engine damage.
CAUTION
Make sure the circlips are firmly seated and the open
end is directed either up or down before continuing
with assembly.
