(To
gain
access
to
the

Before commencing operations, engage a gear
as
an
aid
to
releasing various nuts.
Remove
the
outer
primary chalnscase and associated fittings (See
Section

and collect
the
needle
roller
thrust
bearing from
the
centre
of
the
chainwheel.
Note
the

release
of
the
self locking
nut.
Straighten
the
washer which secures
the
engine sprocket nut,
and remove this, using a
tabular
wrench,
tommy
bar and hammer.
There
Is
no tab
washer
under
the
chainwheel
nut,
but
before
attempting
removal,
cover
the
threads
of
the
clutch pull
rod
with a
strip of sellotape,

sprockets
are
then
ready

all
of
which
