Cleaning, inspection

The different parts are cleaned after dismantling:
1. Scrape off soot deposits on the piston crown.
2. Scrape off soot deposits in the cylinder's combustion chamber.
3. Scrape off soot deposits in the cylinder's exhaust port.
NOTE!
Scrape carefully with an object which is not too sharp so that the soft aluminium parts
are not damaged.
4. Clean the decompression passage in the cylinder wall.
5. Wash all parts clean.
6. Inspect the different parts for damage and wear.
7. Check the middle piece and inlet pipe for cracking and to see if leakage has occurred,
etc.
See also the chapter "Analysis and procedure".
Check the piston and cylinder for seizing damage and wear.
See also the chapter "Analysis and procedure".
Check the piston ring for damage or fracture.
See also the chapter "Analysis and procedure".
Check the gudgeon pin.
– If it shows signs of bluing it should be replaced.
– If it runs too easily in the piston both the piston and piston bolt should be replaced.
Check the needle bearing. If it is discoloured or damaged it should be replaced.
Check the circlips. If they show signs of cracking or are discoloured they should be
replaced.
Unscrew the cylinder screws with key No.
