Drive shaft

The flexible drive shaft is lubricated with special grease (art.

every machine.
NOTE! Do not use gearbox grease on the drive shaft.
• Separate the two rig shaft halves (see page 16).
• Remove the bolt that
holds the drive shaft
sleeve in the clutch cover.
• Remove the clip that
holds the throttle cable on
the drive shaft.
• Pull the drive shaft sleeve
out of the clutch cover.
• Remove the drive shaft
from the sleeve either by
shaking it out or pulling it
out using pliers.

shaft with grease from the
tube. Spread it out using a
brush or rag.

MAINTENANCE
• Slide the drive shaft back
into the sleeve. Make sure
the shaft engages correctly
by turning it and pushing
at the same time.
• When the shaft is correctly
installed in the sleeve the
end of the shaft should
project about 30 mm
beyond the edge of the
sleeve.
• When the sleeve and drive
shaft are installed in the
clutch cover the guide pin
(A) on the sleeve and the
adjustable stop (B) must
be positioned opposite
each other.
• Rotate the shaft and push
it in at the same time.
• Install the drive shaft
sleeve in the clutch cover
so that the stop locates in
the slot on the underside
of the clutch cover.
• Tighten the locking bolt.
NOTE! The bolt must be
inserted in the threaded
half of the cover first, so
that the cover is not drawn
together.
