Introduction
safety information
1. Repair work safety information
1. Use an engine stand when demounting the engine
from the equipment.
Be sure not to place the engine directly on the
ground or allow the oil pan to come into contact with
the ground.
2. When performing a procedure with two or more
people, make sure to ensure each other's safety.
3. Do not disconnect the battery cable for 3 minutes
after turning OFF the ignition switch.
4. When repairing the electrical system, make sure to
disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery
terminal before working. Keep fire away when
removing the battery cover.
5. Do not leave the engine running for an extended
period of time or perform painting in a poorly
ventilated working environment.
6. Make sure to use only the special tools if the
procedure requires them for the work. Performing
the procedure using other tools may cause damage to
parts or personal injury.
7. Inspect the tools, instruments, and special tools
regularly, and prepare them before working. Do not
use tools such as a wrench that has lost its edges, a
hammer with frayed edges, or a chipped chisel.
8. When performing work using a device such as a
grinder, crane or welder, make sure to pay sufficient
attention to the handling precautions.
Wear work clothes and safety equipments in the
other operations as well.
9. Be sure to check that there is no fuel leaks when
performing maintenance on fuel systems.
10. When handling volatile materials, be extremely
careful to not let them catch fire.
Also make sure to wipe away any oil that sticks to
rubber parts, as it can cause deterioration.
2. Replacement parts and parts number safety
information
1. Whenever disassembly is performed, make sure to
replace the packing, oil seals, O-rings, crimping lock
nuts, bending lock plate, and split pins, etc., with
new ones.
2. Since the part numbers indicated in this manual may
differ from the supply system and are subject to
change, make sure to check the supply system and
part numbers in the parts catalog.

Plastic gauge
1. Using the plasti-gauge
Type Measurable range
PG-1 (Green) : 0.025 to 0.076 mm { 0.00098
to 0.00299 in }
PR-1 (Red) : 0.051 to 0.152 mm { 0.00201
to 0.00598 in }
PB-1 (Blue) : 0.102 to 0.229 mm { 0.00402
to 0.00902 in }
Method for measuring the gap between the connecting
rod bearing and crank pin
Clean the connecting rod and bearing, and assemble them
on the connecting rod. Cut the plasti-gauge to the width
of the crank pin and lay it parallel avoiding the crank pin
oil hole. Align the markings on the connecting rod and on
the cap to assemble it on the crank pin. Apply
molybdenum disulfide to the threaded portion and seat
surface of the tightening bolts. Alternately tighten them
so that the cap is at the specified torque.
Caution:
・Never move the connecting rod when the
plasti-gauge is in use.
Gently remove the cap and connecting rod and use a scale
printed on the packaging of the plasti-gauge to measure
the flattened plasti-gauge.
Method for measuring the gap between the crank bearing
and crank journal
Clean the installation surfaces of the cylinder block and
crankcase bearing, and assemble them on the cylinder
block and crankcase. Gently place the crankshaft on the
cylinder block, and lock it into place by turning it
approximately 30 degrees. Cut the plasti-gauge to the
width of the crank journal and lay it parallel avoiding the
journal oil hole. Gently place the crankcase on the
cylinder block, and apply molybdenum disulfide to the
threaded portion and seat surface of the tightening bolts.
Tighten in the specified order at the specified torques.
Caution:
・Never move the connecting rod when the
plasti-gauge is in use.
Gently remove the crankcase and use a scale printed on
the packaging of the plasti-gauge to measure the flattened
plastic gauge.

Caution:
・Make sure to use a liquid gasket with the
above product name or equivalent.
・Use an appropriate amount of liquid gasket.
・Follow the handling precautions for the
product.
・Do not use Loctite 515/518 or FMD 127
(Loctite 5127), as they are anaerobic, and do
not provide sufficient effect when there is a
gap larger than 0.25 mm {0.0098 in} between
the contact surfaces of metals.
Whenever disassembling, completely remove old liquid
gasket using a scraper, and clean by removing any oil,
moisture, filth, etc. from the locations of parts and the
mating parts where liquid gasket was used by using a rag,
etc. After cleaning, apply the specified liquid gasket to
each location and assemble them.
Note:
・It is better to start the removal operation
approximately 10 minutes after applying when
using gasket remover to make the operation
easier while cleaning.
Caution:
・Do not apply gasket remover to plastic parts
and painted parts.
Apply liquid gasket of the specified bead width to one
side of the contact surface thoroughly.
Caution:
・Be careful to apply a proper amount of the
liquid gasket to avoid an excess or lack in
application.
・Be sure to overlap the beginning and ending of
the liquid gasket application.
・Be careful not to misalign the applied part with
the mating part when assembling.
Note:
・When there is a misalignment, apply again.
・Use the same size studs as a guide when
using with a section which has no positioning
such as a knock pin.
Caution:
・After applying the liquid gasket, assemble
within 15 minutes.
Note:
・When more than 15 minutes have passed after
applying liquid gasket, remove the liquid
gasket and apply it again.
Caution:
・Wait at least 30 minutes before starting the
engine after assembling each part.

screw thread section of nuts to which thread
locking adhesive agent will be applied.
Note:
・Check if the cleaned sections are dry.
Caution:
・After tightening, do not apply excessive torque
or vibrations for at least an hour until the
thread locking adhesive agent hardens.
Apply thread locking adhesive agent to the end 1/3 of the
screw and tighten at the specified torque.
