Assembly
1. Clean the connecting rod. Pack bearing cones
with multipurpose grease as they are as-
sembled. Use a mild steel rod, not a punch, to
install the bearings.
NOTE: The rocker arm bearing must be installed as
a complete assembly because the cup spacer and
cone spacer control the bearing adjustment.
2. Install cup spacer, 16 with the gap in line with the
grease fitting hole.
3. Install two bearing cups, 15.
4. Press one bearing cone, 14, on rear (long)
spacer, 12. Install these parts in the connecting
rod.
5. Install cone spacer, 17, and second cone, 14, on
the long spacer. Be sure the parts are seated.
Install front spacer, 11, in rear spacer, 12.
6. Install grease seals, 13, with seal lips out. Dirt will
be flushed out as the fitting is greased.
7. Install two bearing cups, 9.
8. Reinstall the connecting rod as outlined in "Sickle
Drive Adjustment."
