[Inspection]

(1) Clearance of piston ring slit

• Install piston rings 5 to 7 into the crankcase cylinder sleeve using the
head of piston 8 to level the piston ring.
• Measure the clearance of the piston ring split while keeping them level
and stationary. If the measured value is higher than the limit, replace
the piston ring.
NOTE
• Use piston 8 to ensure that piston rings 5 to 7 are kept level when
03175
inserting them into the crankcase cylinder sleeve.
• Insert piston rings 5 to 7 into the lower part of the crankcase
cylinder sleeve, where the area is less worn, when measuring
clearance of piston ring split 5 to 7.
• Exchange the whole set of piston rings 5 to 7 as a set if any of the
rings is faulty.
