All
parts should
be
thoroughly cleaned
In
kerosene
(paraffin) and
Inspecte~
for wear, paying particular
attention
to
the clearance between
the
bobbins
and
bushes
In
the
pivots. Check
the
dimensions with
those given on page GD6.
If
the
wear
Is
excessive
I.e.
more than .006"-·010"
the
bushes and/or bob-
bins will have
to
be renewed. This
Is
described
In
Section
Cl0.
The
parts should
be
assembled as shown
In
the
Illustration
Fig.
E9.
During assembly, make
sure
that
the
bobbins and bushes
are
well greased
and
the
space surrounding
the
distance
tube
should
be greased-packed (see
Fig.
E12). Recommended
grades of grease are given
In
the
table on page
AS.
The
'0'
rings should be Inserted Into
their
housings
and
fitted
over
the
ends
of
the
fork cross tube.
Position
the
fork
In
the
frame pivot lug and Insert
the
spindle from
the
right side. Tighten
the
spindle
in
the
frame until
the
fork can just be moved
upwards and downwards with
little
effort. Fit the
tab washer and securing nut
to
the
left side of the
spindle. Tighten
the·
latter
and
lock with the
washer.
Note.-When
the
bushes etc.,
are
sound, but
sldeplay
is
eVident, this
can
be rectified
by
taking
out
the
distance tube and reducing Its overall
length,
by
either machining
or
filing.
It
Is
essential
that
the
tube
ends are
kept
parallel with each
other
during such operations.
