Cleaning & Inspection

1. Clean all parts with solvent prior to installing any

bearings. Blow dry with low pressure air.

2. Inspect roller bearings make sure that bearings ro-

tate freely without binding.

3. Inspect the shifter cam for cracks or wear. Inspect the

ends for grooves or pitting. Always install new roller

bearings whenever the shifter cam is replaced.

WARNING

:

Always wear safety glasses to shield

your eyes from airborne dirt and debris.

4. Inspect the shifter fork shaft and replace

if bent or damaged.

5. Using a small framer’s square, verify that the shift-

er fork shafts are square. If a fork does not rest flat

against the square, it is bent and must be replaced.

(See Fig. 3)

6. Inspect the shifter forks for wear. With a micrometer

or dial caliper, measure the width of the fork where

they contact the gear fork grooves. Replace any fork

that measures less than 0.170” (4.32 mm)

7. Inspect the neutral safety switch. Depress plunger

and observe the action. Plunger should pop back

without binding. The switch is not repairable and

must be replaced if inoperable.

8. Slide rubber boot off clutch cable adjuster. With a 1/2

inch wrench holding the cable adjuster, loosen jam

nut to get a significant amount of free

play at hand lever.
9. Remove six socket head screws to remove clutch

release cover from the transmission side door.

DO not re-use the gasket.
10. Remove retaining ring from inner ramp, then lift inner

ramp out of clutch release cover. Turn the inner ramp

over so that ball pockets are facing outboard. Remove

hook of ramp from button on coupling. Remove the

coupling from clutch cable end.

11. Unscrew the cable from the clutch release cover. Re-

move the clutch cable.

12. Remove the mainshaft fork shaft from the hole on the

right side of the transmission case by sliding outward,

then remove the 1st gear fork shaft by first removing

the threaded plug, then slide the shifter fork back

and forth until the shouldered head of the fork shaft

protrudes through the hole in the bearing housing.

Remove the shifter forks from the mainshaft and

countershaft grooves. (See Fig. 5 & 6)
