Lubrication System
FLY
CRANK
LUBRICATION SYSTEM :
Oil from the oil tank is circulated to various parts through a powerful oil pump. The oil in
the sump gets filtered through an oill strainer located in the crankcase and then pumped
into the oil filter element located in the RH Cover. From here oil is circulated to 3 main
areas. The first branch goes to flywheel to lubricate crank shaft as well as barrel piston
assembly. The second branch goes to hydraulic tappet to maintain the oil pressure con-
stantly. The third branch goes to rocker assembly and drains down to RH cover chamber
through the push rod tunnel.
