aged or excessively worn.
To check:
•
Fit the entire final transmission unit (6)
to the wheel.

Manually rotate the sprocket (7) to right
and left, and check the clearance be-
tween the flexible couplings (5) and
their holder (8).
If there is excessive clearance:
•
Replace all the flexible couplings (5).
ALWAYS REPLACE ALL THE FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS
WITH OTHERS OF THE SAME TYPE.
SPROCKET

cloth.
