FS-200S crankshaft mating washer

This washer is specified for the FS-200S engine family and is offered as O.S. Engine model OS44508000. It fits on the crankshaft end to locate the drive coupling and maintain the correct axial clearance required for reliable operation.

Fitting is intended for hobby workshops: slide the washer onto the crank flange until it seats against the crankcase face or spacer, confirm the coupling runs true, then measure endplay with a feeler or dial gauge. If endplay is outside acceptable limits, inspect the mating surfaces and any shims before changing washer thickness.

In service and tuning the washer stabilises the drive interface and limits axial movement that can compromise gear engagement or coupling alignment. Regular checks for wear or distortion are recommended during rebuilds or fault diagnosis.

By controlling axial endplay the washer helps keep the coupling aligned, which supports consistent gear engagement and reduces uneven wear on mating components.
Do not increase washer thickness without verification. First check mating faces and shims, as adding thickness can introduce misalignment and worsen coupling wear.
A feeler gauge or a small dial gauge used while gently rocking the coupling will give a reliable measurement of axial movement.
