Tips and Tricks |
A well-known problem in the NSU-Max is
the wear of the teeth of the kickstarter shaft. It can go so far that the
Kickstarter slipping when pressing.
However, the teeth can only wear if the Kickstarter has clearence between
itselve and the shaft.. This most often happens when the clamping
screw ( 35 ) is not sufficiently tightened. Now, the clamping screw has only a
diameter of 6 mm. This is for the biasing forces required for a firm seat of the
kick starter not much. So it often happens that triggers the clamping screw and
the Kickstarter wobbles on the shaft.
The simplest remedy would be, would use
if you take the M 6 screw an M 7 Series or even 8- M screw. But apart from the
fact that the flange on Kickstarter for this is a bit small, this would not be
original and also does not look good.
Whoever attaches importance to
original-like
appearance, but still want to attach the kick
starter sure who should be in relevant
screw dealer a particularly
high-strength screw quality 10.9 : better get (Say ten point nine) even 12.9.
The screw itself has the designation DIN 931, M 6 x 32. If you can not get the
normal hexagonal screw (DIN 931) in this high-strength grades, so you can,
waiving the original structure, a hex socket
head screw (DIN 912) using
the same dimensions.
Course is part of the high-strength screw and a
high-strength hexagonal nut ( DIN 934 , M 6 ) . The screw nut should also have
the quality "10". This "10" is stamped on each screw nut.
Such a high-strength screw connection,
consisting of a 6 Series M Screw grade 12.9 and a M 6 nut quality 10 can be
equally tightened as a conventional 8- M screw of grade 8.8 . A fortified in
this way Kickstarter will no longer dissolve in the operation and the
toothing lasts forever.
