Refitting The Timing Gears - Ducati MONSTER 821 Workshop Manual

Refitting the timing gears

Before reassembling the removed parts, check timing gears (6) for wear. Change, if necessary.
Important
The timing gears must always be replaced as a pair.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
When introducing the driven gear (B) check that the key (5) is correctly fitted on the timing layshaft, align
the gear slot with the key matching the driving gear timing mark (A) with the gear (B).
On completion of the refitting operations, check that washer (3) is staked against nut (4) in such a way to
prevent the nut from working loose.
