................................................... 153 f 5mm to underside of front
crossbeam
Rear ride height
.................................................... 160 f 5mm to underside of rear
edge of A frame
Front ride height
................................................... 143 f 5mm to underside of front
crossbeam

When renewing spark plugs, apply silicon grease

cable. This will ensure that the terminal covers remain supple throughout their service life, thus maintaining
a good contact and preventing HT leakage.

A4.1 BODY REPAIR
Introduction
This section contains information, specifications and procedures for body repair and rectification of the Jaguar sedan
range (with standard wheelbase).
All repairs, whether structural or cosmetic, must ensure the continuance of the Paint Surface and Corrosion warranty,
where applicable.
Following repair or rectification, the vehicle must be returned to the original manufactured condition with regard to
occupant safety, dimensional accuracy, finish and corrosion protection.
Similarly, repaired vehicles must be fully checked, and where appropriate reset, with regard to steering, suspension,
restraint and
braking systems.
A4.1.1 Health and Safety
(Please Read The
Fol/owing Notes Carethlly)
Where legislation governing working conditions and practises is applicable, you should observe it. Do not forget that
you have a duty, to yourself and those around you, to act in a responsible manner in the workplace.
In the United Kingdom the Health and Safety
at Work Act (1974) places a duty on employers and employees to ensure,
whenever possible, safe working conditions and practices. Wherever a potential hazard is notified to, or identified by
the operator, he must employ the correct safety procedures and equipment.
Should
a personal injury occur as a result of any workshop activity, seek medical help as soon as possible and do not
attempt self-treatment other than by the application of first aid.
With the constant introduction of new materials in the manufacture of vehicles,
it is important that potential risks are
identified and precautions made known.
WARNING: READ AND UNDERSTAND WORKING PRACTICES CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEMS, SECTION 14, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO
ERY
/ RECYCLE / RECHARGE EQUIPMENT.
WEAR SUITABLE EYE AND SKIN PROTECTION.
OBSERVE ALL APPLICABLE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
DO
NOT VENT REFRIGERANT DIRECTLY TO ATMOSPHERE, ALWAYS USE JAGUAR APPROVED RECOV

SRO 77.10.02
w: Where other components must be removed to gain access, please referto the relevant manual section for guid- ance. This is critically important with regard to steering, braking, suspension, electrical and safety systems.
. Expose the resistance spot welds, for those spot welds which are not obviously visible, use a rotary wire brush fitted to an air drill or a hand held wire brush (A Fig. 1).
WARM: DO NOT BURN UNDERSEAL OFF. USE A 'HOT KNIFE' OR SUITABLE SOLVENT.
. Cut out the spot welds using a Zipcutter or Roto-Bor (B Fig. 1).
Jhh: On some panels, before removing the bulk of panel with the pneumatic saw, brazed areas and MIG welded
seams should be removed.
= Separate the spot welded joints and remove the panel remnants.
At
this point
it may be necessary to cut out the bulk of the panel using a pneumatic saw (C Fig. 1).
