SE5 Cluctch query

[Stephenaspr]

I have a 2011 RSS SE5 with some clutch issues.
In the Green Machines workshop manual, page 192 it states that the outer seal on the clutch hydraulic piston (just behind the small Rotax cover) has to be installed with the open edge of the seal toward the clutch, yet in the diagram it is the opposite.
Can anyone confirm the correct orientation of this seal.
When this piston was removed, the open edge of the seal was facing the clutch, but it seems very difficult to re install the piston with a new seal.

I'd suggest you fit the new one the same way as the old one. Not sure which seal you mean without identifying it in the parts diagram.

Interesting....

From the parts list I see the two pistons and they both have piston liners. They fit into a piston sleeve and I assume this is what you are talking about. Not being abel to see much else I would agree with re-installing them as they came out as that would be the way the factory installed them in the first place. :thumbup:
