Fly wheels

Nov 21, 2004 2 Replies

Any recommended method of fixing fly wheels to Mashima motors? Pending advice to the contrary I was going to slip a smear of Loctite or Araldite to the shaft and leave it at that. Cheers.


Loctite 601 or 603 will do nicely. Just one tip - fit the flywheel, then put a bead of Loctite on the shaft at the opposite end to the motor bearing, then twiddle the flywheel round the shaft so the Loctite runs in. If you put the Loctite on first, you run the risk of it entering the motor bearing.

Cheers Paul, "that'll do nicely".
