Reassembly is carried out in exactly reverse order, care being necessary after pressing
in the brake side bearing ring sufficiently far to permit fitting the circlip, to then force
the ring back until seal cup (5) is tightly in contact with the retaining circlip before
proceeding with further assembly.
Final adjustment of the bearings should allow the slightest possible degree of end play,
and when correctly adjusted just perceptible rim rock upon refitting the wheel should
be observable.
NOTE—Upon tightening the adjusting ring nut (13) the cover disc must be positioned
to permit application of the gun to the grease nipple, the hole in disc being provided
for that purpose.
FRONT BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Major adjustment of the frontbrake shoes is made on the brake thrust pins, by fitting
packingwashers under the pins, as already described.
Minor adjustment of the front brake shoes is made by altering the position of the brake
cable adjuster on the fork assembly. Unscrew the adjuster to "take up" the front brake.
The adjuster is locked in position by a nut.
Adjust front brake by :
Place machine on centre stand.
Slacken lock nut on cable adjuster.
Unscrew the cable adjuster till, by rotating the front wheel, it can be felt the brake shoes
are just touching the brake drum.
Then screw back the adjuster two complete turns and tighten the lock nut.
