1953 125 LD Easy Engine removal?

Hi,

I'm just stripping a 1953 LD125 down and getting ready to restore the complete scooter.

I have disconnected all cabling and electrics, removed the fuel tank and spotted a 30 mm bolt below the engine and the torsion bar to remove.
I did a bit of research on the web and see there's a specific tool and use of clamp / wood blocks.

Anyone know the best steps to drop / remove the engine also is it a good idea to mark current position etc


Any help welcome, Cheers

JD

I have a D150 so no help there. Here's a pdf of the service station manual:

They seem to completely overhaul the engine in situ.
