Fill the corburettor with fuel
ond operote the
corburettor lever 10 times through its full stroke
to iniet fuel. Operote the lever ot intervols
of
3 to 4 seconds
ond cotch the fuel into o grodu-

ening the cover copscrews.
To Adiust Throttle Discs
Turn over the corburettor

Clomp the right-hond holf of the housing
(when viewed from the flonge securing
it to

check the housing for completeness.
2. Instoll

on the 1st--
ond 2nd-speed rods.
3. lnsert the reverse speed

into the housing
so thot the inserted
end pro-
trudes slightly from its guide,
slip on it the
striking fork with the longer
side of its heod
first,- ond push
the striking fork rod through
the fork
ond the end of the guide

proceeding through the hole in its side ond
using o stick or o length of wire, push

Proceed
in the some monner for
inserting the next pin
(use one pirr

3. To evoluote
the doto
obtoined from
the diol
indicotor reoding ond the
doto of the geor
set,
odopt the following procedure:
The setting distonce of the gouge -
60.00 mm
- is morked on the gouge
orm; the reoding
of
the diol indicotor
hos shown
o deviotion
of e. g.
plus 66 divisions, i. e. 0.66 millimetres (plus
meons thot the tip
of the gouge is pushed
in-
word from the set zero position
ond the in-
dicotor reoding is higher;
o reverse deviotion -
minus reoding -
connot procticolly
occur). By
subtrocting this deviotion from the meosure on
the gouge, the octuol distonce between the
pinion ground foce ond the geor
cross oxis will
be obtoined,
i. e. 60.00 mm minus 0.66 mm :
59.34 mm.
The meosure on the crown
wheel indicoting
the ossembly
distonce of the pinion
is, foi
exomple, 59.60. Accordingly,
the pinion
must be
moved slightly
out of the housing
0.26 mm, i.
e.,
by the difference
of the two
meosurings (59.60
minus 59.34:0.26 mm).
4. Prepore
odiusting
sirims 0.30 mm thick to
be inserted
under the flonge
of the pinion
beor-
ing on further
ossembly of the housing.
Shims 0.14, O.2, 0.3, ond 0.5 mm thick ore
ovoiloble. lf the required
occurote outword shift-
ing of the pinion
connot be ochieved
with shims
of ony of the specif
ied thickness, combine them
to obtoin
the next higher
volue.
Note: The thickness of shims required
for the od-
iustment of the
pinion
con be olso
colculoted
in the following
woy:
o) Set the diol indicotor
of the Mp 5-103 gouge
os in porogroph
1of the preceding
texi i.6.,
with the gouge
odiusted on the meosuring
contoct, the reoding
of the diol indicoto-r
will be 1.00 mm.
b) .Swing the
tip of the diol
indicotor
ogoinst
the pinion ground foce ond push
the
iinion
by meons
of the Mp 5-102
beorinq
retoiner
into the housing
till the diol
indicitor reods
1.00 mm. pointer
ofter pushing
the pinion
into the
housing is the meosure (thickness)
of the
shims.
4.9 DIFFERENTIAL
Assembly 1. Instoll the sun geor (plonet)
without the
friction wosher, the two stor pinions
(sotellites),
ond the pilot pin
for the stor pinions
into the
left-hond holf of the differentiol cose (with
the
flonge for the crown wheel). The originol
dif-
ferentiol pinion
shoft pressed into the cose
must be reploced tempororily by the pilot
pin
to focilitote hondling. 2. Push the sun geor
from outside into
en-
gogement with the stor pinion
teeth ond
use
o depth gouge
to meosure the dimension by
which it protrudes
from the housing. Then, pro-
ceeding from inside, push
the sun geor
into the
obutment surfoce of the differentiol cose ond
meosure ogoin
by how
much lt protrudes
from
the housing. The difference of both meosure-
ments determines the gop
for the sliding ring.
The rings ore supplied
in thlcknesses of 1.8,
1.9,
2, 2.1,2.2, ond 2.3
mm. Select the ring whlch is
0.1 mm thinner thon
the colculoted dimension
of the gop.
Fig. 4.9/1- Sectionol View of Differentiol
The orrow points to the mork indicoting the
side for pressing-on
the differentiol pinion
shoft. Any symbol con be used (o
figure, o let-
ter) but it must be identicol for both ports
of
the differentiol. lt olso indicotes the
correct
relotive position of the two differentiol ports.
c)
d) Push,
the pin-ion further into the housing
{while w.otching
the deflection
of the poin-.
ter) until the ossembly
meosuring
is ob-
toined (the 59.60 meosure
on th; crown
wheel) , i.
e., by the dif ference
of this
meosuring from 60.00
mm -
in our exomple
60.00 minus 59.60:0.40
mm.
Without chonging the position
of the
diol
Indicotor, push
the pinion into the housing
gs for os
it
will go -
the difference
of th6
d.iol reoding
from the previous
0.40 mm is
the thickness
of the required
shims (0.26
mm). Or, without chonging
the position
of
the diol indicotor on tfrJ pinion,
trin tf,e
scole to zero (0).

ond its refitting would require
the removol

Pull out ogoin
the shoft slightly

broke mechonism
odhering to the in-
structions of the obove-mentioned chopter,
lo'
cote the beoring
shim 0.3 mm thick, ond com'
plete the ossembly.
Note: The 3 mm shim should
be used only
when replocing the wheel hub or when elimirr-
oting on oscertoined shoft ploy,
thot is
to soy
if the shoft moves oxiolly ond
knocks. However,
it is recommended never
to use more shims
thon three.
5. A domoged seoling
ring con be removed
with o hook or o needle, ond o new one driven
or pressed-on.
The lotter olternotive should be
preferred with regord to the visuol checking of
the pressing-on operotion. The
tightening fin
ond spring of the pocking
hove to be
tunned in-
side the holf-oxle.
When driving home the seol
ring, slip the
MP 5-114 pilot toper (see
Fig.5.213) on the
shoft,
smeor it with oil, ond move the seoling
ring
olong it to drive it finolly into the holf-oxle
using tlre MP 5-116 drift os shown in Fig-
5-212.
For pressing-on
the seoling ring, use the MP
5-112 iig (see
Fig. 5.214)
ond the, sleeve
with
toper os per
Fig.5.-1l4. Pull the shoft
slightly out
of'the holf-oxle, slip
on it the oiled toper os
shown in the illustrotion, then the
seoling ring
ond finolly the sleeve. Fosten the MP 5-112
iig
screwing its heod on
the holf-oxle threod, slip-
the seoling ring on
the thrust ring
by meons of
the sleeve, ond turn the wrench to
press
the
seoling ring into the holf-oxle.
Now the beoring con
