Step 46 Main Gear & Clutchbell Gear Mesh<br />

M3x12 Socket<br />

Cap Screws x 2<br />

M3x8<br />

Socket Cap<br />

Screws x 8<br />

& M3 Flat<br />

Washers x 8<br />

Loosen the eight M3x8 socket cap screws<br />

that hold the clutchbell assembly and the<br />

two M3x12 socket cap screws between the<br />

upper and lower bearing block assemblies.<br />

Cut a strip of regular copy paper 12mm x<br />

50mm and thread between the main gear<br />

and the clutchbell gear. Press the clutch<br />

bell towards the main gear and tighten up<br />

the eight bolts. Proper gear mesh is<br />

achieved when the paper strip will pass<br />

between the gears without ripping or<br />

damaging the paper strip, but no looser.<br />

One at a time, remove each of the M3x8 and M3x12 socket cap screws, apply L242 Blue<br />

threadlock and tighten in place. After completion, you should still be able to thread the<br />

paper strip through the gears. If not, repeat this procedure.<br />

Step 48 Clutch & Clutchbell Alignment<br />

Over the next few steps the upper and lower frames<br />

will be joined. The frames have the necessary slots to<br />

allow for precise alignment between the clutch and the<br />

clutchbell. The goal is to have the clutch sit parallel<br />

and centered in the clutchbell. It is best to sight the<br />

bottom edge of the clutch with the aluminum clutchbell<br />

in both fore-aft and left-right directions to ensure<br />

remains parallel when all the fasteners have been<br />

tightened. It may be necessary to further loosen the<br />

frame fasteners.<br />

Parallel<br />

Now that the gear mesh has been set, go back and remove all<br />

the upper frame screws one screw at a time, apply L242 Blue<br />

threadlock and tighten in place. These include the M3x8<br />

frame screws, M3x30 bellcrank screws and the front hex<br />

spacer screws.<br />
