CAUTION
Do not use anti-sealer products, degreasers or cold
detergents.
Clean the two sections of the engine casing, ball bear-
ings and all bearing housings thoroughly with a gentle
solvent.
Clean all the gasket surfaces and check for damage.
NOTE
Place the two halves of the engine half-casing
on a flat surface to prevent damage.
Make sure the two halves of the engine half-casing do
not feature cracks or signs of damage.
Make sure all the threads are in a perfect state of repair.
Make sure all the oil seals remaining in their slots are
not worn or damaged.
Check the slack of all the ball bearings and make sure
they slide smoothly and are not distorted in any way.
NOTE
Use motor oil to lubricate the ball bearings be-
fore performing the check.
If the inner race does not turn easily and silently, or if it
makes a noise, it means the bearing is defective and
needs replacing.
Remove the oil gauze (1).
Clean the oil gauze with naphta and check the mesh of
the gauze for possible signs of damage.
