Step 41

	Open bag 7
	All parts of bag 7.
	There is a correction sheet for the clutch when using a SG crank shaft engine.
	Fit the black 7 mm cone on the crank shaft and slide it as far as possible against the front engine bearing. Move the crank shaft engine and see if there is still any play. If that is the case pull the crankshaft and push the black cone further towards the front engine bearing.
	Slide the flywheel on the crank shaft.
	Turn the flywheel nut by hand force on the crank shaft. Make sure the rounded part is placed outwards.
	Secure the flywheel nut using a large pliers and a 10 mm tube wrench. Do not use thread lock on this flywheel nut.
	Fit on each of the flywheel pins a 2.6 x 6 mm steel washer.
	The car comes with blue anodized aluminum clutch shoes and 1.0 mm scissors springs.
	Place the spring in the clutch shoe as the picture shows.
	Slide the clutch shoe and spring over one of the flywheel pins. The tip if the scissors spring will touch the round part of the flywheel nut.
	Use a blunt tool to push the tip of the spring into the groove of the flywheel nut. We used a tip of a 2.5 mm hexagon tool.
	This is how the spring should be placed.
	Fit the second shoe with the same procedure. After fitting the second shoe place a 2.5 mm hexagon tool in-between the second clutch shoe and the flywheel nut.
	Now place the third clutch shoe.
	The clutch shoes readily mounted.
	Slide a 5 x 9 0.3 mm steel shim washer on the crank shaft.
	Slide a 5 x 10 x 4 mm clutch bell ball bearing on the crank shaft.
	Fit a 5 x 10 x 4 mm ball bearing into the front of the 13 tooth clutch bell.
	Fit the clutch bell on the crank shaft.
	Fit a 5 x 9 x 0.3 mm steel shim washer.
	If in your case the end of the crankshaft is not protruding the clutch bell use this small 3 x 4.8 x 0.5 mm washer to make the crank shaft longer so you can use a 5 x 9 x 0.3 mm steel shim washer.
	Secure the end of the crank shaft with 3 x 8 x 1 mm steel washer and a 3 x 10 mm hexagon screw using a 2.5 mm hexagon tool.
	Make sure the clutch bell can move 0.5 mm over the length of the crank shaft. If there is less play use thinner 5 x 9 mm shim washers. In case there is more play use thicker 5 x 9 mm shim washers.
	Nice the kit comes with aluminum clutch shoes. The current standard.
