WASHERS WEDGING

Use the tool supplied in comp. 22 and 11, as already represented in the specific section "Mounting the

after having completely filled with specific grease the space between the steering tube and the oscil-
lating arm, move the dust guard rings (1) until they are made to fit in the space provided.

FLEXIBLE JOINT - REMOVAL

Hoist the vehicle, secure the axle shafts to the en-
gine with flexible straps so as to avoid that the end
with the joint pin slides off the differential sprocket
wheel; take out the 6 bolts (1) connecting the flex-
ible joint to the terminals and remove the flexible
joint.
