SERVICE MANUALCRANKSHAFT, MAIN BEARINGS, FLYWHEEL & CRANKCASESection 64.Maintain a grinding wheel speed of6500 surface feet per minute with awork spindle speed of approximately40 to 45 RPM, for satisfactory results.CAUTION! As a normal precaution, it isrecommended that a CO2 fire extinguisher be nearthe grinding machine, just In case any excessiveheat should ignite the oil. If a fire should start, it canbe rapidly extinguished without causing any damageto the machine or surrounding area by following thenormal fire-extinguishing procedure.5.Feed rates should be slower thannormal to prevent any burning.6.Maintain grinding limits as shown inFig. 12.d.Allow the shaft to thoroughly cool, prior toinspecting for dimensional tolerances.e.Prior to lapping inspect for burning duringthe regrinding procedure with TAROSOVETCH as follows:CAUTION! Due to the sharp odor andflammability of the Tarosov Etch, the etching shouldbe done In a well-ventilated area, away from anyopen flame.1.Clean the surface with a scouringpowder and water or a good solvent.2.Wash thoroughly and rinse withalcohol.3.Apply etchant No. 1 (4 parts Nitric acidin 96 parts water) for approximately 16seconds with a cotton swab.4.Rinse with water and dry.5.Apply etchant No. 2 (2 partsHydrochloric acid in 98 parts acetone)for approximately 15 seconds with acotton swab.CAUTION! Acetone Is highly flammable.6.Rinse with alcohol and dry thoroughlywith compressed air.7.TAROSOV ETCH will show up as achange of color after each etch, if thecrankshaft has been burned. Areasrehardened by excessive heat appearnearly white, while softened areas turna dark grey or black. Areasunaffected by the heat of grinding etcha light gray.SCRAP THE CRANKSHAFT IF ANY BURNSSHOW UP AFTER ETCHING.f.After grinding and lapping visually inspectthe surface for grinding cracks, usingmagnaflux on Elotherm crankshafts.SCRAP THE SHAFT IF ANY SUR-FACECRACKING IS FOUND.Inspect the Flywheel and Ring Gear as follows:1.When used with clutches having bi-metallic-drivenmembers examine the contact face of the flywheelfor heat cracks and scoring. Service or replace ifscoring is excessive.2.When used with clutches having ceremetallic-driven members, scoring of the flywheel is normal.However, if scoring is excessive reface or replacethe flywheel as required.3.Inspect the ring gear for broken teeth and replaceit if necessary.CGES-185-3PRINTED IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICAPage 12
