Note: If pistons of low compression height are being

fitted. be sure to reface the crankcase parting surface
by the difference between the piston compression
heights.
See table on page 1.1 /4.

Introduce connecting rod into piston in such a

way that long side of split big-end bearing is pointing
to right (arrow points to left) and arrow on piston
crown is pointing forwards in direction of travel.

2 Clamp connecting rod in vise.

Note: Use soft jaws to protect connecting rod.

3 Introduce piston pin and secure with snap rings.

4 If you are fitting used pistons, check gap and

side clearances of piston rings.
See table on page 1.115.

Note: Piston assemblies with 4 and 5 rings can be ex·

changed singly.

5 Moisten piston with engine oil, setting each pis'

ton ring gap off by 1800 relative to previous one.

Installing big-end shell bearings

Note: The shell bearings for the big-end are supplied

ex works ready for installation, no matter which re-
pair stages are concerned. The bearings are not to be
dressed in any way at all.

Remove piston, referring to 5.1/1_

2' Clean bearing points in connecting rod and bea-

ring cap, using chamois leather.

3 Place shell bearing halves in connecting rods and

bearing caps, observing correct sequence. Make sure
that locking lugs of shell bearings fit satisfactorily in
basic bore grooves.

4 Position bearing cap and shell bearing on con-

necting rod, making sure that correct parts are put to-
gether (marking digits must be at same side).

5 Using torque wrench, tighten fastening bolts to

torque setting and then apply final torque angle.
See 1.3/1 for tightening torque.

6 Measure big-end bore at three places (perpendi-

cular and at two positions 30 0 away from the parting
faces at top and bottom).
See 1. 1/3 for big-end bore.

Note: The values in the tables must be observed.

Note: From engine end No. 470 360 a fabric seal is
fitted. Instead of the previous scroll thread the crank-
shaft has a flinger ring. It is impossible to modify
older engines.
14 Clean and check all parts, exchanging if nec-
essary.

Installation

Using compressed air, blowout oil passages

from oil pump end.
2 Clean crankshaft oil drillings with wire brush
and blowout with compressed air. Using chamois
leather, clean crankshaft journals, shell bearing halves
and bearing seats.
3 Check hardness of crankshaft journals and
crankpins, using Sklerograph drop tester.
See table on page 1.1/1.
Note: A conversion table is provided with the hard·
ness drop tester.

6 Place shell bearings in connecting rod and cap,

making sure that projections fit satisfactorily in
grooves.

7 Observing correct sequence, place shell bearings

in crankcase and bearing caps, making sure that shell
bearings fit satisfactorily in basic bores and that pro-
jections of shell bearings are correctly seated in
grooves.

Note: Lubricating holes in upper main shell bearings

must tally with drillings in crankcase.

8 Position bearing caps with shell bearings in

crankcase, remembering to observe corresponding
marks.

9 Insert and tighten main bearing bolts.

See 1.3/1 for tightening torque.

10 Using 50 to 100 mm diameter internal measur-

ing instrument, measure main bearing bores at three
places (vertically and also at top and bottom, 30 0
away from parting surfaces).
See table on page 1.1/2.

11 Detach bearing caps again.

Note: The shell bearings for the crankshaft are

supplied ex works ready for installation, for every
repair stage. Shell bearings are not to be refurbished
in any way.

12 Moisten shell bearing surfaces with engine oil.

13 Place crankshaft in shell bearings.

Note: Make sure that crankshaft gear tooth "1"

meshes with the camshaft gear teeth marked "1-1 ".
