Measuring crankpins
Figure 77

Before grinding the pins, using a micrometer (1), measure the
main journals of the shaft (2) and decide, on the basis of the
undersizing of the half-bearings, the final diameter to which the
pins are to be ground.
NOTE For a more accurate reading, take different mea-
surements on more than one point of the shaft
and calculate the average value.

Y=Crankpin fitting detail
During the grinding operation, pay attention to the values of
the crankpins shown in Y.
NOTE All main journals and crankpins must also be
ground to the same undersizing class, in order
to avoid any alteration to shaft balance.
