First of all, it is very important to take some pictures
before and during the
disassembling of your Solex to allow a reassembly fast and in
conformity
with the origin. Thing made all the more easy with the use of a
numerical camera.
Disassembling
The
disassembling of the majority of the
parts does not present excluded particular problems:
- On the
S3300 and model following, the mudguard is assembled in force on the
central part of the framework. It is necessary to find a punch of the
good dimension and to strike at the good place to separate the two
parts.
- The
support of the axis of the pedals crossing the framework is to be
dismounted to be treated with the jaws of braking and screws and
bolts.
- The
fork is dismountable framework after having withdrawn the handlebar
(while typing with a hold on the central screw beforehand
désserrée), and unscrewed the nut which is used
to regulate the play of the fork. On the models former to
S2200, the bearings consist of balls which are free.
Attention not to lose them at the time of the separation of the unit.
(Ca will fall on all the sides!!)
Sandpapering
The various parts are to be pickled to withdraw
all traces of grease and of rusts in order to offer a base of
hangs healthy for painting. The parts full of grounds and with dirty
oil are to be cleaned with a grease-remover, standard gasoline, before
sandpapering not to clog the tools. A shot-blasting or fine sanding is
possible and makes it possible to save time, but attention not to
damage the finest parts.
Painting
The key comes now from painting. It is the moment
to learn how to paint with the compressor, the investment is not
enormous and incomparable quality with paintings in bomb.
In first layer, a
anti-rust standard is to be applied, but it must be color of final painting if
possible. In second layer comes painting finale.Pour the run-outs,
which you will have early or late..., to sandpaper with water with fine
sandpaper the parts and to give a coat of paint.
Chromium plating
The
bearing cages for the
rotation of the handlebar are easily dismountable while tapping on
their circumference using a hold by the interior of the framework. They
are to be made chromium plate with the pedals, the handlebar, the bell
and the rims.
Screws
and bolts
The majority of screws and bolts are of M6 (key of
9...) with various geometries which one does not find today any more.
Best is to re-use it by making it absolutely before treat with
anti-corrosion treatments like the électrozingage for
example.
In the event of nonrespect of this operation, the bolts go rusted soon
on a machine coldly remakes and all will be with redémonter.
The spacers of the
framework as well as the support of axis of pedals and the return
springs of the engine must be also dismounted to be treated with screws
and bolts. This small disassembling moreover brings an unquestionable
effect on the final result.
Small precision, the
only screws which must be painted are the quatres which fix the two
arms of the fork.
Reassembly
The parts are to be gone up in the contrary
direction of disassembling.
The bearings of the pedals and the fork must be well lubricated before
their assembly.
There is only the play of the fork to regulate by the tightening of the
nut located below the handlebar. For that, to tighten it
complétement and unscrew slightly without there being no
play to check by before-back movement of Solex, brake before tight.
