Ports which con be dismontled witlrout re-
moving them from the cor ore the wheel hubs
and beorings, the broke mechonisms, steering
orms, shock obsorbers, ond the
onti-roll bor.
lf ony odditionol ports

light blows of o mollet, if necessory.
2. Toke out the inner port
of the outer beor-
ing, then the seoling ring, ond, f
inolly, the inner

7.8 STEERING WHEEL SHAFT AND SHAFT
BEARING
The steering wheel (column) shoft is built
up
of two ports
with the beoring in the uPPer port.
Usuolly, it is not necessory to disconnect the
two ports
of the shoft or to remove the beoring
ond steering lock. lt
con be removed from the
cor os o unit.
Removol 1. Remove the steering wheel -
see Chop-
ter 7.7. 2. Remove the screws on the lower port
of
the shoft cowling ond pull
the cowling off.After
removing two bolts, detoch the cluster switch
on the shoft from the upper port
of the shoft
cowling. 3. Remove two front screws of the upper
Port
of the cowling ond remove the cowling.
4. Disconnect the leods
from the switches
ond the switch box.
5. From under the cor, remove the bolt of the
coupling connecting the steering
column shoft
to the steering box ond detoch the dust boot
from the floor. Remove the
bolts of the shoft
beoring (from
under the shoft)
ond the bolts of
the steering lock (from
the front) fostening the
shoft to the body, ond pull
out the shoft.
Ref itting To ref it the steering column shoft
in the cor,
reverse the removing procedure. While reinstol-
ling the steering wheel (Chopter
7.7), do not
forget to check the direction indicotor switch
for correct function.
Use ploin
ond spring woshers under the bolts
of the steering lock
brocket. Reinstoll the shoft
beoring using spocing tubes, rubber bushes, ond
ploin woshers, ond secure the bolt of
the coup-
ling, connecting the steering
column shoft with
the steering box, with
o self-locking nut (for
tightening torque, see
Chopter 1.8).
To Disconnect Shofts
Remove the bolt
of the cross-pin
ioint con-
nection.
Connecting of Shofts
Fit o fostening sleeve on the tube
with the
shoft, dip the ring in oil ond slip
it on to the shoft end with
its wedge-shoped port
toword
the beoring, instoll the spring
ond the
ioint
socket of
the shoft bottom port.
Tighten
the
connection with the bolt with self-locking
nut
(tightening torque os per
Chopter 1.8).
The sleeve must be f irst built up if
the shoft
is refitted for the first time. Locote
both holves
of the sleeve on the tube ond fosten
them
lightly together by bending the tob of one holf
of ttre sleeve over the
other. The
sleeve must
on no occount clomp the tube tightly.
Bottom Port of Steering
Column Shoft
The shoft is provided
with cross-pin
ioints
ond connot be dismontled (token
oport). Before
fitting the shoft dust boot, smeor
it with
oil to
focilitote its slipping over the pcrrts
of the joint.
For this purpose,
it is clso odvisoble to wrop
the joint
in o plostic
foil or to moke o sleeve
with o pilot
cone.

Removol 1. l-ift owoy the fostening sleeve
ond check
whether the shoft rototes

it is not the cose, unlock the steering lock ond
press out the shoft proceedirrg
from the side
of its splined
end.
2. lf necessory, remove
the circlip of the shoft
ond lift owoy the beoring. The other beoring
hos to be driven out by topping it corefully
through the cut-outs in
the tube to ovoid domog-
ing it. 3. Remove the brocket with the steering
lock
- see Chopter 7.9.
Ref itting
1. Slip tlre beoring pocked
with greose
on to
the upper port
of the shoft, then the ring with
its wedge-shoped port
focing the beoring, ond
lock both ports
in position
with the circlip.
Press the shoft into the tube ond press-in
the
beoring (ogoin pocked
with greose)
from the
other end.
2. lnstoll the brocket with the steering lock -
see Chopter 7.9.
Shoft Beorings They hove to be thoroughly lubricoted
first,
since ofter their reossembly with the shoft od-
ditionol lubricotion is not possible.
lf there is
ony doubt concerning the greose
pocking,
re-
move the circlip f
rom the inner port
of the
beoring, toke the beoring oport, cleon it, ond
reossemble it ofter hoving pocked
it with the
recommended greose,

Broke
Shoes ond Broke Drums
When refitting
o broke shoe with o portiolly
worn lining moke sure thot it hos o thickness
sufficient to lost till the periodic
inspection
(ofter every 20,000 kilometres). The new lining
is 5 mm thick. When it is worn down to 1.5
to 'l
mm (4
to 3.5 mm when meosured
with the
shoe), the broke shoe hos to be reploced
with
o new.or
o reconditioned
shoe with glued-on
new lining. Be sure to reploce
the respective
broke shoes in both wheels to preserve
o uni-
form broking effect.
Speciol glues or cements

No tool morks must be left
on their surfoce
which hos to be perfectly

4. Select the shims required
to fill the gop
between the end of the gouge
ond the foce of
the fostening lug.To position
correctly the
broke, insert shims
between the fostening lugs
cnd yokes. You con, however,
meosure direct
the distonce
between the fostening
lug ond the
trroke disk
ond set this distonce
in complionce
with Fig. 9.211 by odding pocking
pieces
to the

grinding it to o thickness
of 7.5 mm. lf necess-
cry, reploce it with o new one 9 mm thick. The lowest
limit of thickness
of o still usoble
broke disk is 6.5 mm. The
moximum permissible
run-out of the friction surfoce is
0.15 mm.
1. After hoving lifted owoy

1. Suck off the hydroulic fluid from the tonk
so thot it is only holf filled.
2. Remove cotter pins
ond lift
owoy the broke
lining cover.
3. Remove the friction pod,
cleon thoroughly

Repair of Window Regulator Defects
lf the windows are difficult to wind up and
down (the
maximum torque applied on the
spindle of the window regulator with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds 2.5 Nm) (1.77
tt
lbs), it is recommended that the following steps
are taken as regards both the front
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect the regulator driving plate
from
the window glass
channel. Push the glass
upward
and try the relieved regulator by turning the
regulator crank. lf the regulator does not work
smoothly (jamming,
rattling) or if
a torque higher
than O.7 Nm/(O.495 ft lbs) in front and 1.1
Nm/(0.78 ft lbs) in the rear is required for its
operation, replace the whole regulator with a new
one working satisfactorily.
2. Adjust the centre pillar position
in the door
using the jig
as per
drawing No. A1-1 5417-S.
Loosen the top screw of the centre pillar
and
retighten it while pressing
the centre pillar
against the window glass
wound up to its upper-
most position.
Loosen the bottom screw of the
centre pillar
and retighten it while pressing
the
centre pillar
against the
window glass. 5417

-l! L
3. When bolting together the regulator driving
plate with the window glass
channel make sure
that the holes in these two parts
coincide along
the whole length of the channel. lf it is not so,
move the
channel into a satisfactory position.
4. lf the regulator is
not lubricated, lubricate the
regulator cable in the
tubing with grease
and
apply oil to the regulator
crank spindle.
To Remove ond Reinstoll Reor Door Fixed

The seat belts have
anchoring bolts
on the size 7/16-20 UNF-2A'
In f ront, the anchoring threads
are easily
accessible being provided
on the door posts
(remove only one of the pair
of pins
covering the
thread), on sills
below the posts,
and on
the sides
of the'floor tunnel
behind the front seats'
Anchoring points
for rear seat belts are shown
in the illustation. For the seat
belt of the person
sitting in the
middle, the threads are under the
seat cushions and rather removed from each other
(A3). For the seat belts of persons
occupying the
butside places
the threads are also under the
cushions, nearer to the centre (A2),
in the body
sides close to the cusions (82),
and in window
pillars (C2). These latter threads can be found by
touch in the point
of intersection of the plane
passing about 165 mm
above the
rear window
parcel tray and in parallel
with the door frame at a
distance of about 85 mm. To gain
access to
them,
it is necessary to cut through the trimming.
We must stress that for the fitting of points A2
and A3, the bolts should not protrude
beyond the Fig.M.11l2
