d
"e"= a numeral on the middle driven pinion
gear, to be divided by 100 and either added
to or subtracted from "12.00"
"f"= a numeral on the middle driven pinion
gear, to be divided by 100 and either added
to or subtracted from "62.00"
"g"= a numeral on the upper crankcase, to be
divided by 100 and added to "103.00"
TIP
If the upper crankcase is marked "00", "g" is
104.00.
g
TIP
If the upper crankcase is marked "00", "g" is
104.00.
TIP
In the above example, the calculated number is
0.74. The chart instructs you to round off the 4 to
e
5. Thus, the shim thickness is 0.75 mm.

Example:
If the middle driven pinion gear bearing hous-
ing is marked "+17"
"d" is 54.72 (i.e., 54.55 + 0.17 = 54.72)
If the middle driven pinion gear is marked
"+03"
"e" is 12.03 (i.e., 12.00 + 0.03 = 12.03)
If the middle driven pinion gear is marked "-
02"
"f" is 61.98 (i.e., 62.00 - 0.02 = 61.98)
If the upper crankcase is marked "93"
"g" is 103.93 (i.e., 103.00 + 0.93 = 103.93)
"B" = 54.72 - 12.03 + 61.98 - 103.93 = 0.74
Round off to the hundredths digit and select
the appropriate shim(s).
