2. There should be no play between the clutch shoes and
the clutch hub.
3. Wear on the chain drive sprocket.
4. The needle bearing should be in good condition and the
journal surface on the crankshaft undamaged.

and the bearing surface undamaged.
When assembling the centrifugal clutch the chain brake must
be in the off position.
