Service Caution: Assembly

  1. Before assembly, verify that each part is clean and dried.
  2. Apply a sufficient amount of the specified oil (SAE 75W-80, API service GL-4) to moving parts and sliding surfaces when performing assembly.
  3. For parts such as gaskets, springs, or pins which are designated for replacement with every disassembly, always use a new part.
  4. Clean off remaining silicone sealant before applying new silicone sealant.
  5. After applying silicone sealant, install the transaxle case before the applied silicone sealant starts to harden, and wait for 30 min or more before adding oil.
  6. When using a vise, always secure the component using an aluminum plate to prevent component damage.
