Calibrate
Axial clearance check
1. To measure the axial clearance of the crankshaft,
it is necessary to assemble the shaft in the
crankcase.
2. Measure the axial shift of the crankshaft with a
dial gauge. The axial shift must range between
0.18-0.38mm (0.007-0.015in).
3. If the value is more than or less than the specified
range, replace the shoulder rings.
