CDI MAGNETO
REMOVING THE ROTOR
1. Remove:• Nut (rotor) "1"
• Washer "2"
Use the rotor holding tool "3".
2. Remove: • Rotor "1"Use the flywheel puller "2".
When installing the flywheel puller,
turn it counterclockwise.
CHECKING THE CDI MAGNETO
1. Inspect:• Rotor inner surface "a"
• Stator outer surface "b"
Damage →Inspect the crankshaft
runout and crankshaft bearing.
If necessary, replace CDI magne-
to and/or stator. CHECKING THE WOODRUFF KEY
1. Inspect:
• Woodruff key "1"Damage →Replace.
INSTALLING THE CDI MAGNETO
1. Install: • Stator "1"
• Screw (stator) "2"
• Apply the sealant on the grommet
of the CDI magneto lead.
• Tighten the screws using the T30 bit.
2. Install:• Woodruff key "1"
• Rotor "2"
• Clean the tapered portions of the
crankshaft and rotor.
• When installing the woodruff key, make sure that its flat surface "a" is
in parallel with the crankshaft center
line "b".
• When installing the rotor, align the
keyway "c" of the rotor with the
woodruff key.
3. Install:• Washer "1"
• Nut (rotor) "2"
Use the rotor holding tool "3".
4. Connect: • CDI magneto leadRefer to "CABLE ROUTING DIA-
GRAM" section in the CHAPTER
2.
5. Install: • Dowel pin
• Gasket (left cr ankcase cover)
• Left crankcase cover "1"
• Hose guide (cylinder head breath- er hose) "2"
• Bolt (left crankcase cover)
Tighten the bolts in stage, using a
crisscross pattern.
