Reverse the process for assembly. See the following tips for special information.
1.Lightly grease the axle gear. Spread about
½ teaspoon of #2

Figure 119 |
2.Lightly oil the drive chain with chain oil. If engine oil is used, coat the chain then wipe the excess off. As with the grease, the sprockets turning will fling any excess oil around the drive system.
3.The drive plate must be clean and free of oil. Wipe with alcohol or a solvent that does not leave a residue. Oil on the plate will cause drive slippage.
4.When installing the traction shaft and friction wheel, the bearings must be aligned. Loosely install the assembly into the chassis. Rotate the friction wheel and firmly strike each bearing a couple of times with a rubber mallet (Figure 120). The jolt will center the bearings. Secure the bearings to the chassis side plates.
