1. Lightly bevel bearing seat edges at the crankcase joint to prevent gouging as a result of bearing preload upon reassembly of crankcase,
2. Check dowel pin in Bearing 1 for firm seating.
3. Oil passages in crankshaft journals and bearings must not have sharp edges in evidence.
4. Install in crankcase insert halves of Bearing 2 and 3.
5. Place insert of Bearing 1 on crankshaft journal so that the off-centered dowel pin bore is closest to the flywheel side.
