2. PERFORMANCE
2-1 MAXIMUM OUTPUT
The maximum ouput of an engine is such standard power as developed by theengine, after itsinitial break in period with all
the m,ovingparts properly worn in,when operating with a fully open throttlevalve. Therefore, a new engine may not develop
the maximum output
in the beginning because the moving parts are not in a properly worn-in condition.

3. FEATURES
Small in size,light in weight
The cylinder andcrankcase are
of a one-piece aluminum diecast structure, which is light in weight. The dimensions are
reduced as much as possible
for easy mounting.
Quiet operationwith low level of vibration
Intake and exhaustnoises are reduced byuse
of a newly designed muffler having glass wool anda cyclone cleaner. Ma-
chine noise is reduced by selection
of a suitable cam shaft profile and optimumclearances for inner parts. All ths adds
up
to a quiet engine. Vibration is also reduced to a low level by weight reduction of reciprocating parts, and selection
of a timing balancer and optimum balance factor.
Easy to start
These engines can easily be started because they employ an automaticdecompression device and a newly designed re-
coil starter.
Wide range
of adaptability
These models are available in various types
of output shafts andalso a type (Type B) with a built-in 1 /2 reduction gear
for application tovarious kinds ofmachines. Theengines have two oil drain ports, and theirrecoil starter can be pulled
in anydesired direction. Various optional parts are
also available. Allthese combine to increase adaptabilitytomachines.
Durable, reliable and safe
A liner of special cast iron, hard-chrome-plate piston rings, forged rod, etc. are used to make these engines as reliable
and durableas the preceding models
of the EY Series. Safety devices are alsoincorporated toassured added safety.
4. GENERALDESCRIPTION of ENGINECONSTRUCTION
4-1 CYLINDER, CRANKCASE
Thecylinderandcrankcaseare single piece aluminum die
casting. The cylinder liner, made
of special castiron, is built
into the aluminumcasting.The intake and exhaust portsare
located on one side
of the cylinder, and arealso inserted in-
to the casing.
The crankcase is separable
on the output shaft side, where
the main bearing cover is attached to it.(See Fig.
1 .)

4-2 MAIN BEARINGCOVER
B
The main bearing cover made of aluminum die casting is built onto the output shaftside of the crankcase so that the inside
of the engine can readily be checked by simplyremoving the cover. It is provided witha flange and boss for directly mount-
ing machines, such as generators and pumps.
Two
oil gauges also serving as oil filler caps can be mounted. . (See Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 .)

INDUCTIONHARDENING
(PORTION
of CRANKPIN)
The crankshaft is forged of carbon steel, andthe crankpin is
induction-hardened.Ithas a crank gear pressure-fittedon
the output end.

4-4 CONNECTING ROD and PISTON
The connecting rod is forged of aluminumalloy,whichit-
selfserves as bearings at both the large and small ends. The
large endhas
a built-in oil scraper for splashngthe lubri-
cating oil.
The piston is cast of aluminumalloy,and has grooves for
receiving two compression rings and one oil ring.
(See Fig. 5.)

4-5 CAMSHAFT
Models EY3S-B, 3S-BS, EY40-B and 40-BS have intake and
exhaust cams of forged carbon steel, which are fitted with a
cam gear under pressure. The assembly serves asoutput shaft
that
is driven at one half the speed of the crankshaft. The
cam gear has a governor fitted to it.
Model EY35-D,
35-DS, EY40-D and 40-DS have a camshaft
of special castiron, which is integrallyassembled with a cam
gear. The two ends of the shaftserve as plainbearings
so no
ball bearings are used.
(See
Fig. 6.)
4-6 CYLINDERHEAD
Thecylinderhead is an aluminum die casting, and formsa
Ricardo type combustion chamber withample area
for high
combustioneffeciency.Thesparkplug is tiltedfor easy
mounting of thefuel tank.

4-7 VALVEARRANGEMENT
. "
. ". .._ _.
The exhaust valve is located upstream of the coolingair with
the result thattheexhaust valveis intensivelycooled for
improved engine durability. The inner side of the valve head
is reinforced with hard alloy fused
to it for added durability.
