Af ter regrinding, the sharp corners on the Dil
ways should be removed and the Crankshaft crack-
detected again and demagnetised.
NOTE ;-It is important that the RADII on the
main journals and Crankpins are maintained. If
these are neglected, a fatigue fracture is liable to
occur.

CRANKSHAFT AND MAIN BEARINGS
Tbe crankshaft runs in three pre-finished replace-
able shell hearings, which are lead bronze lined
and indium flashed.

Crankshaft Regrinding.
E~amination ror Wear.
Before proceeding to regrind the Crankshaft, the
following points should be checked to ensure it is
suitable fot further grinding.
Tbe Crankshaft should be crack-detected and
then demagnetised in order to remove any polar-
isation which may be present.
Tbe main joumal and crankpin diameters should
be checked fot ovality and measured to ascertain
the next appropriate size to which the Crankshaft
caD be reground, i.e. -.010" (-.25 mm), -.020"
(-.51 mm), -.030" (-.76 mm) from Standard. If
the crankshaft requires regrinding below -.030"
(-.76 mm), it is recommended that ncw crankshaft
he fitted.
It should be noted, however, that in the home
market, an exchange scheme is in operation where-
by reconditioned Crankshafts are available at a
certain cast, providing the Crankshaft being
exchanged is not damaged and is suitable for re-
grinding to a limit of -.030" (-.76 mm).
Regrinding.
All the necessary information required for re-
grinding the Crankshaft is given under ' Crankshaft
Data '. All limits listed thereunder must he
adhered to and the main joumals and Crankpin
must be free from grinding marks.
