metal cleaner. Use gasket remover, or suitable
equivalent. To remove remaining Loctite 5910 on the
contact surface, use a copper brush.
CAUTION: Avoid Injury! Wear safety glasses
c
and work in a well ventilated area when
working with strong chemical products. Also
wear suitable non-absorbent gloves to protect
your hands.
For installation, reverse the removal procedure. However,
pay attention to the following.
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! When beginning the
application of the crankcase sealant, the assembly
and the first torquing should be done within 10
minutes. It is suggested to have all you need on
hand to save time.
NOTE: It is recommended to apply this specific sealant
as described here to get a uniform application without
lumps. If you do not use the roller method, you may
Engine Ignition and Charging System - 87
Page 92
ENGINE IGNITION AND CHARGING SYSTEM
use your finger to uniformly distribute the sealant
(unlike the Drei Bond sealing compound, using a finger
will not affect the adhesion).
Use the silicone-based Loctite 5910 on mating surfaces.
NOTE: The sealant curing time is similar to the Loctite
518 without using the Primer N.
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Do not use Loctite 515
or 518 to seal crankcase. Do not use Loctite Primer
N with the Loctite 5910. Using these products or non
silicone- based sealant over a previously sealed
housing with Loctite 5910 will lead to poor adhesion
and possibly a leaking housing. These products are
chemically incompatible. Even after cleaning, the
Loctite 5910 would leave incompatible microscopic
particles.
Use a Plexiglas plate and apply some sealant on it. Use a
soft rubber roller (50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.)) (available in arts
products suppliers for print making) and roll the sealant to
get a thin uniform coat on the plate (spread as necessary).
When ready, apply the sealant on magneto mating
surfaces.
