temporarily and tightening the nut whilst the
crankcase is still hot.
7. Pump Worm Locknut
The pump worm is held in position in the
end of the crankshaft by a steel nut which is
permanently fixed in the crankshaft and should
not be removed.
The nut is fitted in a recess and locked by
means of a long peg which in turn is held by a
grub screw in the timing side crank web.
If it is necessary to re-fit the nut, assemble
the timing sprocket with the pump worm and
nut in the crankshaft while out of the crankcase
and tighten it up.
By means of a long drill through the hole in
the crankshaft web, countersink the nut to about
1/8 in. Insert the locking rod and grub screw.
Remove the pump worm and sprocket and
re-assemble after the shaft has been fitted in the
crankcase.
