AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE CLEANING

Cleaning Notes

Caution

• Disassemble the control valve component and thoroughly clean it when the clutch or brake band has burned or when the ATF has degenerated. Plugging or equivalent is required when cleaning.

1. Clean the transaxle exterior thoroughly with steam, cleaning solvents, or both, 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.

2. Clean the removed parts with cleaning solvent, and dry with compressed air. Clean out all holes and passages with compressed air, and verify that there are no obstructions.
