SLIP FIT WRIST PIN OIL VAPOR PICK-UP HOLE FOR ENGINE MODELS VH80 and VH100 ENGINE ROTATION OIL FEED HOLE Torque to correct specifications 110-inch pounds (12. 43 Nm). After initial torque use a drift and a hammer (13 oz. ) (390 ml) and strike the rod bearing cap above each lock nut. This will seat the cap releasing some torque on the lock nuts. Retorque lock nuts to specifications. OIL VAPOR PICK-UP HOLE THROUGH BOLT INSTALL WITH MATCH MARK FACING OUT AND OIL DIPPER AS SHOWN SPECIFICATION SECTION FOR BEARING SIZE AND NUT TORQUE The vertical crankshaft 8 and 10 H. P. engines have a connecting rod with two lube holes. This rod is not interchangeable with the horizontal connecting rod. The above requirements listed for a horizontal crankshaft rod also apply to the vertical crankshaft engines connecting rod. 35 SECTION 3. Crankpins should be examined for wear, scoring, or out of-round. If any of these conditions are noted, replace the crankshaft. Lubricate the crankpin generously before attaching the connecting rod. This will prevent damage during the initial run-in after reassembly. EXAMINE CRANKPIN FOR WEAR OR DAMAGE REPLACE IF DAMAGED Note the chamfer tooth on the crankshaft gear. This tooth is used as a reference mark to be matched with the timing mark on the camshaft. Remove gear with a conventional puller after the roller bearing has been removed. The gear and the bearing may be removed simultaneously, but much difficulty may be encountered. Roller bearing must be heated before it is installed. NOTE: If a damaged gear is replaced, the mating gear should also be replaced. Example: If the camshaft is damaged and replaced, the crankshaft gear should be replaced. CHAMFER TOOTH CRANKSHAFT GEAR USE BEARING SEPARATOR AND PULLER TO REMOVE TAPERED BEARING The vertical VH80 and VH100 (without oil pump) oil slinger is located on the crankshaft. It is locked in position between the bearing and the crank gear and maintains that position due to a slot in the gear and a stamped bulge in the slinger. This alignment is necessary to direct the lubricant up into the engine at a closely engineered angle. Note the pickup trough and the stiffening rib. View B shows the trough alignment in correct relation to the crankcase journal.
