Powerhead Assembly
IMPORTANT:
If a new screw is used, it must be
installed as above. Then, it must be removed, re-
lubricated, and installed again.
Loosen forcing screw and remove the frame.
Test at least three corners of the rod and cap joint
with a pick. Joint must be smooth with no step.
Crankcase Assembly
Thoroughly clean and degrease the mating
flanges of the crankcase and cylinder block with a
non-petroleum based solvent, such as isopropyl
alcohol or acetone, and let air dry.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT allow solvent to get on
internal components. Clean only the mating flang-
es.
Use a small brush with a tapping motion to apply a
thin, even coat of
Gel-Seal II
sealant to the crank-
case mating flange. The sealer must not come
within 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) of bearings.
Lightly coat the upper and lower crankcase head
flange surfaces with a thin layer of
Gel-Seal II
.
IMPORTANT:
Gel-Seal II
has a shelf life of at
least one year when stored at room temperature.
Test the
Gel-Seal II
or replace it if the age of the
tube cannot be determined. Using old
Gel-Seal II
could cause crankcase air leaks.
IMPORTANT:
The use of
Locquic Primer
is NOT
recommended. If primer is used, crankcase halves
must be assembled and tightened within ten min-
utes after the
Gel-Seal II
has been applied.
Lower the crankcase into place.
Install main bearing screws and nuts finger tight,
no more than 60 in. lbs. (7 N·m).
When the crankcase is seated, install and firmly
seat both crankcase taper pins.
Tighten main bearing screws and nuts
in stages
to a final torque of:
•
Screws – 48 to 53 ft. lbs. (65 to 72 N·m)
•
Nuts – 38 to 42 ft. lbs. (52 to 57 N·m)
