INFORMATION SYNTHETIC RUBBER
Many '0' ring seals, flexible pipes and other similar
items which appear to be natural rubber are made of
synthetic materials called Fluoroelastomers. Under
normal operating conditions this material is safe, and
does not present a health hazard. However, if the
material is damaged by fire or excessive heat, it can
break down and produce highly corrosive Hydrofluoric
acid which can cause serious burns on contact with
skin. Should the material be in a burnt or overheated
condition handle only with seamless industrial gloves.
Decontaminate and dispose of the gloves immediately
after use.
If skin contact does occur, remove any contaminated
clothing immediately and obtain medical assistance
without delay. In the meantime, wash the affected
area with copious amounts of cold water or limewater
for fifteen to sixty minutes.
RECOMMENDED SEALANTS
A number of branded products are recommended in
this manual for use during maintenance and repair
work.
These items include:
HYLOMAR GASKET AND JOINTING COMPOUND
and
HYLOSIL RTV SILICON COMPOUND.
They should be available locally from garage
equipment suppliers. If there is any problem obtaining
supplies, contact the following company for advice
and the address of the nearest supplier.
MARSTON LUBRICANTS LTD.
Hylo House,
Cale Lane,
New Springs,
Wigan WN2 1JR
Tel 01942 824242USED ENGINE OIL
WARNING: Prolonged and repeated
contact with engine or motor oil will result
in the removal of natural fats from the
skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis.
Used engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
Adequate means of skin protection and washing
facilities should be provided.
Handling precautions
1.Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
2.Wear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where applicable.
3.Do not put oily rags in pockets.
4.Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly
underwear, with oil.
5.Overalls must be cleaned regularly. Discard
unwashable clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.
6.First aid treatment must be obtained immediately
for open cuts and wounds.
7.Use barrier creams, before each work period, to
help the removal of oil from the skin.
8.Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will
help). Preparations containing lanolin replace the
natural skin oils which have been removed.
9.Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel,
petrol, thinners or solvents for washing the skin.
10.If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice.
11.Where practicable, degrease components prior
to handling.
12.Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye
protection should be worn, for example, goggles
or face shields; in addition an eye wash facility
should be provided.
Disposing of used oils
Environmental protection precaution
It is illegal to pour used oil onto the ground, down
sewers or drains, or into waterways.
Dispose of used oil through authorised waste disposal
contractors. If in doubt contact your Local Authority for
advice on disposal facilities.

INFORMATION ACCESSORIES AND CONVERSIONS
DO NOT FITunapproved accessories or conversions,
as they could affect the safety of the vehicle.
Land Rover will not accept liability for death, personal
injury, or damage to property which may occur as a
direct result of the fitting of non-approved conversions
to the vehicle.
WHEELS AND TYRES
WARNING: DO NOT replace the road
wheels with any type other than genuine
Land Rover wheels which are designed for
multi-purpose on and off road use and have very
important relationships with the proper operation
of the suspension system and vehicle handling.
Replacement tyres must be of the make and sizes
recommended for the vehicle, and all tyres must
be the same make, ply rating and tread pattern.
STEAM CLEANING
To prevent consequential rusting, any steam cleaning
within the engine bayMUSTbe followed by careful
re-waxing of the metallic components affected.
Particular attention must be given to the steering
column, engine water pipes, hose clips and ignition
coil clamp.
SPECIFICATION
The specification details and instructions set out in
this Manual apply only to a range of vehicles and not
to any one. For the specification of a particular vehicle
purchasers should consult their Dealer
The Manufacturer reserve the right to vary their
specifications with or without notice, and at such times
and in such manner as they think fit. Major as well as
minor changes may be involved in accordance with
the Manufacturer's policy of constant product
improvement.
Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of
the particulars contained in this Manual, neither the
Manufacturer or Dealer, by whom this Manual is
supplied, shall in any circumstances be held liable for
any inaccuracy or the consequences thereof.SPECIAL SERVICE TOOLS
The use of approved special service tools is
important. They are essential if service operations are
to be carried out efficiently, and safely. Where special
tools are specified,only these tools should be used
to avoid the possibility of personal injury or
damage to the components.Also the amount of time
which they save can be considerable.
Every special tool is designed with the close
co-operation of Land Rover, and no tool is put into
production which has not been tested and approved
by us. New tools are only introduced where an
operation cannot be satisfactorily carried out using
existing tools or standard equipment. The user is
therefore assured that the tool is necessary and that it
will perform accurately, efficiently and safely.
Special tools bulletins will be issued periodically giving
details of new tools as they are introduced.
All orders and enquiries from the United Kingdom
should be sent direct to V. L. Churchill. Overseas
orders should be placed with the local V. L. Churchill
distributor, where one exists. Countries where there is
no distributor may order direct from:
V. L. Churchill Limited,
PO Box 3,
Daventry, Northants,
England, NN11 4NF.
The tools recommended in this Workshop Manual are
listed in a multi-language illustrated catalogue,
obtainable from:
Messers. V. L. Churchill at the above address,
