1. Separate:
• Right crankcase
• Left crankcase
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Remove the crankcase bolts.
TIP
Loosen each bolt 1/4 of a turn at a time and af-
ter all the bolts are loosened, remove them.
b. Remove the right crankcase “1”.
TIP
• Place the crankcase with its left side down-
ward and split it by inserting a screwdriver tip
into the splitting slit “a” in the crankcase.
• Lift the right crankcase horizontally while light-
ly patting the crankcase splitting slit and the
engine mounting boss using a soft hammer,
and leave the crankshaft and the transmission
with the left crankcase.

NOTICE
Use soft hammer to tap on the case half.
Tap only on reinforced portions of case. Do
not tap on gasket mating surface. Work
slowly and carefully. Make sure the case
halves separate evenly. If the cases do not
separate, check for a remaining case bolt or
fitting. Do not force.c. Remove the dowel pins and O-ring.
