Precaution

PRECAUTION
1. Clean the transmission exterior thoroughly using a steam cleaner or cleaning solvents before disassembly.

Warning: Using compressed air can cause dirt and other particles to fly out, causing injury to the eyes. Wear protective eye wear whenever using compressed air.

Caution: Cleaning sealed bearings using cleaning fluids or a steam cleaner can wash the grease out of the bearing.

2. Clean the removed parts using cleaning solvent, and dry them using compressed air.
3. Clean out all holes and passages using compressed air, and check that there are no obstructions.
4. Make sure each part is cleaned before assembling.
5. Coat all movable parts with the specified oil.
6. Replace parts whenever required.
7. Remove old sealant from contact surfaces before applying new sealant.
8. Assemble the parts within 10 min after applying sealant. Allow all sealant to cure at least 30 min after assembling before filling the transmission with transmission oil.

Warning: Although the stand has a self-locking brake system, there is a possibility that the brake may not hold when the transmission is held in a lopsided position on the stand. This would cause the transmission to turn suddenly, causing serious injury. Never keep the transmission tilted to one side. Always hold the rotating handle firmly when turning the transmission.
