16. Insert the complete unit, oil pump with dumb-bell shaft and intermediate shaft with both timing chains into the crankcase half.
17. Fasten new collar nuts (3 pieces). Tightening torque 23 Nm (17 ftlb.).
18. Check dumb-bell shaft. The dumb-bell shaft must be easily movable in axial direction. If necessary, re-loosen the oil pump with the intermediate shaft and shift the dumb-bell shaft. NOTE: Additional O-rings are inserted on 4 tension rod bolts of the thrust block fastening, thrust blocks 2, 3, 4 and 5. The 4 tension rod bolts must be mounted before joining the crankcase halves.
19. Prepare the tension rod bolts for installation. (Scheme 78) shows the already mounted tension rod bolts in the designated thrust blocks. NOTE: Do not oil sealing rings until shortly before fitting. Do not store oiled sealing rings. Prepare four tension rod bolts. Push sealing washers on to tension rod bolts. Feed lightly oiled O-rings with conical sleeve from special tool 9511 over the threaded area and push them on to the tapered section towards the head of the bolt. Observe the A side and B side on the assembly sleeve 9511. Insert the prepared tension rod bolts into the right crankcase half from below as far as they will go and retain in this position. Place conical sleeve on end of the thread. Push O-ring (dry) over the conical sleeve. Remove conical sleeve and push the O-ring with the cylinder sleeve as far as the chamfer in the thrust block. Remove cylinder sleeve. Cylinder sleeve application
