To install rotary valve shaft proceed as follows
with the suitable tools:
– rotary valve seal pusher (P/N 420 8766 07)
– seal protector sleeve (P/N 420 8769 80)
1. Rotary valve shaft
Apply Loctite 648 (P/N 420 8997 88) on shaft
threads.
18,19, Pump Housing Bolt and Loctite 242
(Blue)
Apply Loctite 242 (blue) on bolt threads.
Rotary Valve
The rotary valve controls the opening and closing
of the inlet ports. Therefore its efficiency will de-
pend on the precision of its installation.
IDENTIFICATION OF THE ROTARY VALVE
There is no identification code on the valve. To
find out the duration, place an angle finder on the
valve and measure the valve cut-out angle.
ROTARY VALVE TIMING
At disassembly, before removing rotary valve,
note original rotary valve timing: it may be out of
specifications by 1 to 4 degrees of retard or ad-
vance. To do so, bring MAG piston to TDC and
scribe a mark on crankshaft end at top (12 o’clock)
and also on upper crankcase half.
Mark position of rotary valve shaft gear in relation
to upper crankcase.
-
CAUTION
Crankcase halves must be separated and
crankshaft must not be present to install ro-
tary valve shaft ass’y in crankcase.
