Engine Assembling - MOTO GUZZI V-7 700 Operating Handbook

ENGINE ASSEMBLING
After inspections, checks and replacements ,
clean all parts with pure gasoline and assemble
engine as follows :
secure timing side flange c/ w main bearing
by means of bolts and lock plates. After tight-
ening bolts , bend lock plates ends against
bolt panes.
insert crankshaft in timing side flange c/w
main bearing and fit over crankshaft the fty-
wheel side flange
c/w
main bearing. securing
the same to crankcase by means of bolts and
lock plates. After tightening bolts, bend lock
plates against bolt panes.
insert camshaft in its housing in crankcase
and then bolt down the camshaft support
flange to crankcase.
fit over crankshaft the con-rods c/w big end
bearings, con-rods caps , and secure them to
crankshaft by means of bolts, lock plates and
nuts. Remember to bend lock plates against
nut panes. Refer to chapter « CON-RODS »
on page 23, paragraph « Fitting up con-rods
on crankshaft ».
secure oil pump to crankcase, by means of
screws.
connect oil cleaner (with gasket) to oil pump
by means of the two screws.
connect oil pipe (see A on Fig . 15) complete
with relief valve and gaskets to crankcase,
by means of bolts and lock plates. After tight-
ening bolts , bend lock plates against bolt
panes.
secure oi l sump to crankcase, after position-
ing new gasket and fitting oil drain plug.
Tighten bolts in crossed sequence.
fit pistons, c/ w rings, on con-rods. To insert
piston pin in piston and in con-rod small end
bushing , use Tool No. 26907800 (see 17 on
Fig. 14). Bear in mind that piston must be
previously heated. Fit piston pin circlips .
insert tappets in their housings in crankcase.
position new gaskets between crankcase and
cylinder.
fit cylinders over long bolts. When fitting cy-
linders over pistons remember to lubricate
piston crown and cylinder lining in order to
obtain an easier fitment.
insert new gaskets between cylinders and
cyli nder heads .
- fit cylinder heads c/ w valves.
secure rocker arm supports to cylinder heads
by means of nuts and bolts. See paragraph
« Assembling of cylinder heads on cylinders »
on page 19. Make sure that sealing rings on
bolts are in periect condition .
insert push rods in tappets.
- fit rocker arms, springs and washers on sup-
ports, inserting then spindles. Secure spindles
to supports by mean s of bolts and washers.
fit cylinder head oil pipe and gaskets, by
means of bolts.
f it flywheel over crankshaft and , after having
positioned tool No. 12911801 (see 16 on Fig .
9) on gear box fixing bolts, secure same by
bolts and lock plates. Use torque w rench and
refer to paragraph « Crankshaft » on page 27
Remember to bend lock plates against bolt
panes.
fit woodruff key and distribution gear on
crankshaft, timing side.
fit key on oil pump gear driving shaft and
then position driving gear, securing same
with washer and nut.
fit cam wheel , making sure that 'marked slot
matches with dowel on camshaft and that the
two marked teeth on cam wheel engage the
marked tooth on distribution gear. To check
this, use special tool No. 12912900 (see 20 on
Fig. 57) . To tighten nut securing cam wheel
to camshaft use ring wrench and tool No.
12911801 (see 16 on Fig. 9) .
secure timing cover to crankcase , Inserting
new gasket, and using tool No. 12908300 (see
22 on Fig . 49) for an easy fitting of seal ring
on crankshaft. Tighten the screws in crossed
sequence, securing tim ing cover to crank-
