The
centrifugal clutch for the 125 Junior MAX (Micro MAX and Mini MAX) and 125 MAX
engine has been designed as a dry clutch.
To be able
to detect any misapplication of the centrifugal clutch by applying oil or
grease into the clutch, BRP-Powertrain has released a new ("sealed")
combination of a needle cage plus O-ring for the centrifugal clutch.
The O-ring minimizes the
spreading of grease from the needle cage into the clutch drum and on the clutch
(typical example see attached picture).
For the
proper function of the "sealed" needle cage, the attached assembly
instruction must be carried out.
NOTE:
The new
needle cage and O-ring combination is just applicable for the sprocket sizes 12
– 16 teeth and not for the 11 teeth sprocket with plain bearing!
In case a 11
teeth sprocket with plain bearing is used, the plain bearing may not be
lubricated.
These
components have been released for the new and old design ROTAX
centrifugal clutches.
