Before Overhaul

  1. Remove the torque converter. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR690)>Torque Converter>REMOVAL .
  2. Remove the air breather hose. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR690)>Air Breather Hose>REMOVAL .
  3. Install the ST and place the transmission body.
    NOTE:
    • When attaching the ST to the (a) positions, spacers or similar of 2.0 mm (0.08 in) or more in thickness are necessary.
    • Prepare a container for draining of oil, because CVTF remaining inside the transmission body may flow out from the input shaft portion.
