USE OF THE MANUAL
PRESENTATION
The Repair Manual comes in a binder with a “Mu/to” type
mechanism to facilitate the filing of additive sheets
or the removal of a part for operation in the workshop.
The MECHANICAL COMPONENTS, PART 1 VOLUME (8531) covers operations on the MECHANlCAL
COMPONENTS and the BODYWORK which may be carried out by a general workshop.
It is divided into 15 chapters separated by vinyl tab inserts numbered @ to @
