A
A Stator (if equipped)
Position stator on crankcase with lead towards
crankcase and routing where electric starter will be
installed. Stator terminal connects to diode; move
sleeving and connect terminal. Install and torque
screws to 9.5 N·m (84 in. lb.).
Install Electric Starter (if equipped)
NOTE: Before installing starter, ensure that stator lead
(if equipped) is in position between crankcase
and where starter is located.
Align and mount electric starter onto crankcase. Install

Install Flywheel
Damaging Crankshaft and Flywheel can
cause personal injury.
Using improper procedures can lead to broken
fragments. Broken fragments could be thrown from
engine. Always observe and use precautions and
procedures when installing fl ywheel.
NOTE: Before installing fl ywheel make sure crankshaft
taper and fl ywheel hub are clean, dry, and
completely free of lubricants. Presence of
lubricants can cause fl ywheel to be over
stressed and damaged when mounting nut is
torqued to specifi cation.
NOTE: Make sure fl ywheel key is installed properly in
keyway. Flywheel can become cracked or
damaged if key is not properly installed.
NOTE: Always use a fl ywheel strap wrench to hold
fl ywheel when tightening fl ywheel fastener. Do
not use any type of bar or wedge to prevent
fl ywheel from rotating, as these parts could
become cracked or damaged.
