CAUTIONS DURING COMPONENT DISASSEM-
BLY AND REASSEMBLYGeneral cautions when cleaning
1. Clean each part, blow out oil passages and oil holes, etc.
with air and check that nothing is clogged.
2. For cleaning fluid, use the designated ATF (automatic
transmission fluid) or kerosene.3. When drying parts with air, be careful not to get ATF or
kerosene on your face.Cautions when handling parts
1. After washing the parts, arrange them in order so inspec-
tion, repairs and assembly can be performed properly.
2. When disassembling the valve body, store each valve,
making a group of the various springs.
3.Soak the new brake and clutch discs used for replacementin ATF for more than 2 hours before assembly.
General cautions during reassembly
1.Be sure to apply ATF to seal rings, clutch disc, clutch plateand rotating parts and sliding parts and then install.
2.Replace all gaskets and O-ring with new ones and do not
reuse the old ones.
3.Use petrolatum to hold the parts in their specified places.
