• Rotate the Cam Ring ‘B’, to release the Clutch, and
slide the Sprocket and Drum Assembly ‘C’, off the
Cam Shaft.
• Thoroughly clean the assembly with penetrating oil.

• Inspect the inside of the Drum for scoring, and the
Clutch Rollers ’D’, for wear or damage.
NOTE
If a new Clutch Assembly is fitted, remove the Sprocket
and Taper Lock, from the worn Clutch, for re-use.
• Lubricate the assembly liberally with penetrating oil.

it returns completely to the engaged position.
Spray liberally with penetrating oil.
