BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
Install bearings “1” and oil seals “2” so that the 
manufacturer’s marks or numbers are visible. 
When installing oil seals, lubricate the oil seal 
lips with a light coat of lithium-soap-based 
grease. Oil bearings liberally when installing, if 
appropriate.
CAUTION:

Do not spin the bearing with compressed air 
because this will damage the bearing surfac-
es.

CIRCLIPS
Before reassembly, check all circlips carefully 
and replace damaged or distorted circlips. Al-
ways replace piston pin clips after one use. 
When installing a circlip “1”, make sure the 
sharp-edged corner “2” is positioned opposite 
the thrust “3” that the circlip receives.
