ps i did search

 

Just make sure the front of the engine is in the vertical position- facing up. The reason for this is because if you take the front hub off in the horizontal position then there is a chance one of the thrust bearings may fall out of place. Also when the hub is off with the engine facing upward to not rotate the engine until the hub is tightened back up. I think the link you posted pretty much tells it all.

 

Yes, that is correct.
