Hello all,
does anyone know where i can find an exploded drawing of the a Shimano Freewheel i believe the model is MF-Z012? it a pretty old freewheel and it looks like there are a lot of small bearing in there so i did not want to pull the whole freewheel off until i have some kind of reference.
i appreciate any help you can throw at me.
This is the only EV I could find but probably different to yours.

Might be of some help.
Normally though freewheels are not repairable and are usually replaced with new.
Ride hard or ride home alone!
thanks for the reply cyclerUK i appreciate it. it's not broken, at least i hope it is not. my budget is kind of low right now if i was to replace it. i am actually just trying to clean things up. the bike has been left outside for years. thanks again

Wheelies don't pop themselves. (from a QBP fortune cookie)
Freewheel should be 20-30$ depending on what model you need...
If you are taking it apart then this tool would be of great help if you can locate and attain one.....

Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!
