2. HARDWARE INSTALLATION NOTE: Do NOT hammer, press, or pry etc. on either of the pulleys when installing or removing them. Lightly heat the pulley with a propane torch until the pulley slides onto the input shaft/crank pulley spacer pilot. A. Re-using the crank spacer and six previously removed bolts with washers, install the newly supplied 75 tooth cog crank pulley using a drop of blue loctite thread locker on each fastener. Tighten all hardware evenly, using a progressive, criss-cross pattern.
2. HARDWARE INSTALLATION, cont’d D. Locate the following parts: 7B500-325 tensioner arbor, 7PA375-500 adjustment screw, 4PFA010031 adjustment screw bracket, two 7A250-100 ¼-20 flat allen screws. E.
