150° C (300°F).
• Place ball bearing in position

• Push the oil suction hose into the
crankcase bore.
• Place filler cap's cord (1) in the
groove (2) and pull it forward.
• Use a blunt tool to push the oil
suction hose into the bore so that
its tab locates in the recesss at the
top left.
• After the crankcase has cooled
down, push the stop buffer into
guide until its lugs are behind the
edge of the housing.
• If it is not possible to heat the
crankcase, use the press arbor
