Improper positioning of bearings could
result in engine failure due to lack of
lubrication.

gauge. The recommended crankshaft end play is
.002/.014".
Exchange thrust washer, if necessary, to bring end
play within range. Three sizes of thrust washers
are available: .121", .130" (STD), and .139".

REASSEMBLY
Install the .039" thrust washer, roller thrust bearing,
.156" shaft locating washer, and flanged sleeve bear-
ing to flywheel end of crankshaft.
INSTALL TAPPETS AND CAMSHAFT
1. Lubricate the stems of tappets with engine oil.
Install the tappets into crankcase sides. Make
sure that used tappets are reinstalled into the
proper sides and positions (intake or exhaust) as
marked during disassembly.
NOTE:
The intake valve tappet is closast to the
flywheel side of crankcase. The exhaust
tappet is closest to the PTO side of
crankcase.
2. Put tape or governor spring around the tappet
stems in the #2 crankcase side. This prevents the
tappets from falling into the #1 side when reas-
sembling crankcase.
Refer to Figure 11-15.
