Crankcase Separation
1. Remove flange bolts (10) from magneto side crankcase
evenly in a criss-cross pattern.
2. Separate crankcase by tapping with a soft faced hammer in
reinforced areas.
3. Tap lightly on balancer gear with a brass drift through the
hole in the crankcase if necessary, to ensure the balancer
shaft stays in the PTO side crankcase. Watch the gap along
the crankcase mating surface and separate the crankcase
evenly. It may also be necessary to tap the oil pump shaft
lightly to separate the crankcase.
4. Remove the Mag (RH) crankcase from the PTO case.
