For undersized crankpins, letter M.
For undersized main journals, letter B.
For undersized crankpins and main journals, letter MB.
See that the head mating surface, on the cylinder block, has
no deformation.
This check can be made, after taking out the grub screws (3),
with a surface plate spread with carbon black or with a
calibrated rule (1) and a feeler gauge (2). After ascertaining
the areas of deformation, level the bearing surface with a
grinding machine.

The main journals and crankpins must always be
ground to the same undersize class.
The undersizing performed, on the main journals or
crankpins, must be marked by punching on the side
of crank arm no. 1.
Undersize classes are of:
0.254 - 0.508 mm.

Measuring main journals and crank
pins
Checking head mating surface on cylinder
block
On finding signs of seizure, scoring or excessive ovalization
on main journals and crankpins, it is necessary to regrind the
pins. Before grinding the pins (2), measure the shaft pins with
a micrometer (1) to establish to what diameter it is necessary
to decrease the pins.

The crankcase can only be surfaced after making
sure that, on completing the work, the piston
protrudes from the cylinder liner by no more than
the prescribed value.
NOTE
It is advisable to enter the measurements in a table.
