2. Remove aerator chain connecting crankshaft to
camshaft from both sides of unit.
3. Loosen stud between crankshaft halves.

is pointing towards the front of the unit. Timing
marks should be at a 45° angle with dot towards the
lower front.
5. Rotate right side crankshaft sprocket (H) until the
timing marks are horizontal with the dot towards the
front. Keyway should be at a 45° angle.
6. Install right side aerator chain (J). Crankshaft
sprocket may be rotated up to 5° in a clockwise
direction only to properly mesh with the chain.
7. Rotate left crankshaft sprocket (K) until the timing
marks are vertical and dot is towards the ground.
8. Install left side aerator chain (L). Crankshaft
