Even on machines without this cutout it is not necessary to remove the starter bearing plate or starter chain assembly completely. Once the four screws holding the starter bearing plate to the crankcase are removed (5mm Allen key), the plate may be pulled off its dowels for access to the starter screws.
The starter screws themselves are screwed into the yokes of the starter motor and have a B.S.F. thread. Consequently an Imperial Allen key is required (3/16" A.F.). A Special Tool No. 8228 is available for areas where Imperial tools are not readily obtainable. Before removing the starter from the machine release the lead, (10mm spanner) and allow it to hang from the crankcase. As the starter motor is extracted it may be necessary to rotate it a little, to allow the terminal screw to clear the crankcase. Keep the two starter screws attached to the starter motor, to avoid any risk of getting them mixed up with the metric screws used elsewhere on the machine.
The gear cross-over shaft may only be removed when both the engine side covers are off. Whilst working in the primary case do not disturb the three crankcase screws; two 6mm screws in the front and one 8 mm screw above the lay shaft, unless the crankcases are to be separated. The 8mm screw beneath the gearbox mainshaft retains the inner bearing sleeve for the gear selector spindle and should not be disturbed.
