C. To maintain carburetor performance, it is recommended that rubber parts be inspected periodically or whenever disassembled. Check diaphragm for deterioration or damage, valve hinge for deformation and needle valve for wear. Always use fresh fuel. Fuel which has been stored for an extended periods of time will damage carburetor parts and decrease performance. NOTE: Make sure not to damage the end of the crankshaft, when removing the magneto rotor.
4) Remove the screws securing cylinder and pull cylinder off of the crankcase, before installing cylinder apply a thin coat of oil to the piston. B. Apply a coat of grease to the lip of each oil seal, then install shims on the starter side of the crankshaft and insert crankshaft into the crankcase. Align each piston ring with the locator pin, slowly insert piston into cylinder while compressing the rings in with your fingers.

7. DRIVE SIDE 7-1 Removing and assembling clutch drum 1) Remove stop ring from clutch drum using long nose snap ring pliers. Fig.33 2) Then remove clutch drum from fan case or clutch case using handle bar 8x120 from the stop ring side. 3) Some ball bearing holding clutch drums can be removed from fan case or clutch case using the snap ring pliers after removing clutch drum. NOTE: Check for any wearing of the inner diameter of clutch drum and /or splines and/or any other parts and replace as necessary.
7- 4 Assembling gear case 1) Install ball bearing into the bottom of gear case using the proper daimeter installer. See below for diameters. Dia. 20mm ----- TBC-230 series Dia. 24mm ----- TBC-2501/250PF/260PF/270 series, TBC420PF TBC-4200D/DLV/430PFLV/550/600 2) Apply grease on gear shaft and insert it into ball bearing which was installed in section 1) using one of gear shaft inserter’s shown on the Special tool list.
