CRANKCASE/TRANSMISSION/BALANCER
Align the balancer driven gear [1] and balancer driven
sub gear [2] teeth then install a 6 x 14 mm socket bolt
[3] to the balancer driven gear and balancer driven sub
gear holes at the lower crankcase inspection hole [4].
Apply molybdenum oil solution to the main journal
bearing sliding surfaces on the lower crankcase.
Align the index line [1] on balancer drive gear with
upper crankcase top surface while the " " mark [2] is
facing up.
Install the lower crankcase onto the upper crankcase.
Make sure that the index line [1] on the balancer drive
gear is positioned between the index lines [2] on the
balancer driven gear as shown.
Remove the 6 x 14 mm socket bolt [3].
Install new crankcase main journal bolts [1].
• Tighten the crankcase main journal bolts using the
Plastic Region Tightening Method.
• Do not reuse the crankcase main journal bolts,
because the correct axial tension will not be
obtained.
• The crankcase main journal bolts are pre-coated
with an oil additive for axial tension stability. Do not
remove the oil additive from the new crankcase main
journal bolt surfaces.
Make sure the upper and lower crankcase are seated
securely.
Tighten the crankcase main journal bolts in numerical
order as shown in a crisscross pattern in 2 or 3 steps to
the specified torque.
Further tighten the crankcase main journal bolts 150°.
