Install the main bearing cover to the crankcase.

Apply a small amount of oil to the cover fitting face,
as specified, in preparation for installing the bearing cover packing.
Place the oil seal guide over the crankshaft so that the

Make sure that the side clearance of the crankshaft is within 0 to 0.2mm.
If necessary, adjust the clearance, using the adjusting collar.
