Fitting the clutch
– Before fitting the clutch, carefully oil the lined plates.
Clutch plates
– Place the twelve dragging bushes 3 in the hub. If
necessary fix them with a little grease.
– Starting with a middle plate 6 and 6A, alternate eight
middle plates with seven lined plates 5, ending with
a thin middle plate 6 at the top. (see figure to side)
– Fit the thrust head.
– Position the pressure plate, fit the clutch springs, the spring
cups and the flange screws.
– Tighten screws 7 to 10 N·m following a crosswise pattern.
– Ensure that the centring bushes are fitted in the crankcase.
– Grease all the oil seals in the clutch cover and fix the clutch
cover gasket with a little grease.
– Take special care in ensuring that oil jet 8 in the crankcase is
not blocked by the gasket.
– Pour approximately 30 ml of engine oil in the crankshaft hole.
– Carefully position the preassembled clutch cover, pressing it
slightly.
– Fit the screws (screw length M6x30 or M6x35 – see figure)
and tighten them to 10 N·m.
NOTE: If you have difficulty fitting the clutch cover, check the
position of the starter spring.
