Engine
- Remove the extractor.
- Remove the nut and extract the flywheel with the
start-up rim.
- Remove the crankshaft key.
- To remove the start-up rim from the freewheel it
is necessary to turn it clockwise and pull it out.
- Remove the freewheel from the flywheel by loos-
ening the 6 fastening screws.
SINCE THE FREEWHEEL MUST BE REMOVED, IT IS AD-
VISABLE TO LOOSEN THE 6 FASTENING SCREWS IN
ADVANCE WITH THE FLYWHEEL STILL INSTALLED ON
THE CRANKSHAFT.
- The freewheel is coupled to the flywheel with high
precision; if removal is difficult, use 2 screws as
gripping points and as removing tools, if required.
