Rear Axle

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

CAUTION:

- Do not disassemble the rear wheel hub assembly.
- The magnetic encoder collects metallic particles easily, because it is magnetized. Make sure that the magnetic encoder should not collect metallic particles. Check that there is no trouble prior to reassembling it.
- When the rear wheel hub assembly is removed/installed, make sure that the magnetic encoder (integrated with inner oil seal) does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
- When removing and installing the rear wheel speed sensor, make sure that its pole piece at the end does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
- The part indicated with * is the bolt with friction coefficient stabilizer. In removal, replace it with a new one.
