1. Cylinder Head
Being made of a light alloy, the cylinder head is light
in weight, provid ing excellent rad iation eff iciency.
The domeshaped combustion chamber is shrinkage-
fitted with ductile cast iron valve seats. The intake
and the exhaust valves are arranged opposite to each
other the cylinder head; that is, the cros-flow design
is employed for better combustion eff iciency.
2. Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is precisioncast from a light alloy
meEl by means of pressure die casting. To support
the crankshaft, f ive bearings of the deep skirt type are
employed. The cylinder liners are made of special
cast iron and replaceable. They are directly cooled
by water and sealed with two "4" rings.
3. Pistons and Crankshaft
The pistons are of a conical ellipse type manufacturd
by LO-EX. The crankslraft is made of ductile cast
iron supsior in durability and wear-resistance, and
supported by five main bearings. The main bearings
are made of an aluminum alloyed with tin, which is
also excellent in durability and wear-resistance.
4. UalYe Meclnnism
The high cam shaft design is employed, along with
five special iron bearings, for increased rigidity. This
permits high speed relolutions. The cam shaft is
driven by a Renold-made chain, wtrose tension is
adjustable by means of the chain. adjuster and
vibration dampr. To reduce the cfrain noise, the
contacting surfaces of the chain is finished with
heat-proof and wear-proof rubber.
5. lntake and Exhaust Mechanism
The exhaust manifold is made of cast iron, and the
intake manifold made of a light alloy metal. Both
manifolds ?re of independent branch Wpe. The hot
spot is heated by warmed "cooling water". ln the
intake system, a Stronberg type carburetor, having a
downdraft double-venturi is used.
6. GoYernor
The Governor is of f ly weight type and controlled by
means of all speed governor system.

8. Lubricating Mechanism
Total pressure lubrication is carried out by a trochoid
gpar oil -pump, which is driven by the cam shaft drive
gear. A cartridge type oil f ilter is employed.
9. Electrical System
Electrical component is of 12-volt capacity. The
alternator is l Samp. capacity, and the starter of
1.O-kW. As the battery, the N40L Wpe is used, and
the distributor is provided with a vacuum and
centrif ugal type automatical advancer.
7. Cooling System
Cooling system is the type of forcedcirculation, and
the pressure in the radiator is 9.954 lbs/sq. in. by
which the high efficiency of heat radiation is secur-
ed. Their qystem is incorporated with the Wax type
thermostat and the water pump is of the centrifugal
type. The miterial of cooling fan is the synthetic
resin, consisting of 4 wings,
