INFORMATION PREPARATION
1.Clean components and surrounding area prior to
removal.
2.Blank off any openings exposed by component
removal using greaseproof paper and masking
tape.
3.Immediately seal fuel, oil or hydraulic lines when
separated, using plastic caps or plugs, to
prevent loss of fluid and entry of dirt.
4.Close open ends of oilways, exposed by
component removal, with tapered hardwood
plugs or readily visible plastic plugs.
5.Immediately a component is removed, place it in
a suitable container; use a separate container for
each component and its associated parts.
6.Before dismantling a component, clean it
thoroughly with a recommended cleaning agent;
check that agent is suitable for all materials of
component.
7.Clean bench and provide marking materials,
labels, containers and locking wire before
dismantling a component.
DISMANTLING
1.Observe scrupulous cleanliness when
dismantling components, particularly when
brake, fuel or hydraulic system parts are being
worked on. A particle of dirt or a cloth fragment
could cause a dangerous malfunction if trapped
in these systems.
2.Blow out all tapped holes, crevices, oilways and
fluid passages with an air line. Ensure that any
O-rings used for sealing are correctly replaced or
renewed, if disturbed.
3.Use marking ink to identify mating parts, to
ensure correct reassembly. If a centre punch or
scriber is used they may initiate cracks or
distortion of components.
4.Wire together mating parts where necessary to
prevent accidental interchange (e.g. roller
bearing components).
5.Wire labels on to all parts which are to be
renewed, and to parts requiring further
inspection before being passed for reassembly;
place these parts in separate containers from
those containing parts for rebuild.
6.Do not discard a part due for renewal until it has
been compared with the new part, to ensure that
its correct replacement has been obtained.INSPECTION-GENERAL
1.Never inspect a component for wear or
dimensional check unless it is absolutely clean;
a slight smear of grease can conceal an incipient
failure.
2.When a component is to be checked
dimensionally against figures quoted for it, use
correct equipment (surface plates, micrometers,
dial gauges, etc.) in serviceable condition.
Makeshift checking equipment can be
dangerous.
3.Reject a component if its dimensions are outside
limits quoted, or if damage is apparent. A part
may, however, be refitted if its critical dimension
is exactly limit size, and is otherwise satisfactory.
4.Use 'Plastigauge' 12 Type PG-1 for checking
bearing surface clearances. Directions for its
use, and a scale giving bearing clearances in
0,0025 mm steps are provided with it.

GENERAL FITTING REMINDERS

INFORMATION COTTER PINS
1.Fit new cotter pins throughout when replacing
any unit.
2.Always fit cotter pins where cotter pins were
originally used. Do not substitute spring
washers: there is always a good reason for the
use of a cotter pin.
3.All cotter pins should be fitted as shown unless
otherwise stated.
NUTS
1.When tightening a slotted or castellated nut
never loosen it to insert cotter pin or locking wire
except in those recommended cases where this
forms part of an adjustment. If difficulty is
experienced, alternative washers or nuts should
be selected, or washer thickness reduced.
2.Where self-locking nuts have been removed it is
advisable to replace them with new ones of the
same type.
NOTE: Where bearing pre-load is involved
nuts should be tightened in accordance
with special instructions.
LOCKING WIRE
1.Fit new locking wire of the correct type for all
assemblies incorporating it.
2.Arrange wire so that its tension tends to tighten
the bolt heads, or nuts, to which it is fitted.SCREW THREADS
1.Both UNF and Metric threads to ISO standards
are used. See below for thread identification.
2.Damaged threads must always be discarded.
Cleaning up threads with a die or tap impairs the
strength and closeness of fit of the threads and
is not recommended.
3.Always ensure that replacement bolts are at
least equal in strength to those replaced.
4.Do not allow oil, grease or jointing compound to
enter blind threaded holes. The hydraulic action
on screwing in the bolt or stud could split the
housing.
5.Always tighten a nut or bolt to the recommended
torque value. Damaged or corroded threads can
affect the torque reading.
6.To check or re-tighten a bolt or screw to a
specified torque value first loosen a quarter of a
turn, then re-tighten to the correct value.
7.Oil thread lightly before tightening to ensure a
free running thread, except in the case of
threads treated with sealant/lubricant, and
self-locking nuts.
UNIFIED THREAD IDENTIFICATION
1. Bolts
A circular recess is stamped in the upper surface
of the bolt head.
2. Nuts
A continuous line of circles is indented on one of
the flats of the hexagon, parallel to the axis of
the nut.
3. Studs, Brake Rods, etc.
The component is reduced to the core diameter
for a short length at its extremity.

COOLING SYSTEM
3
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION COOLANT CIRCULATION
Operation
When the engine is started from cold the thermostat
(2) prevents coolant circulation through the radiator by
closing off the top hose (6). During the engine warm
up period the water pump (5) circulates coolant to the
cylinders in the crankcase and through separate ports
to the cylinder head. At the rear of the cylinder head a
proportion of the flow is diverted through a heater feed
pipe (16) to the matrix of the heater unit (15). The
coolant is then carried, via a heater return rail (14) and
hoses (7), back to the water pump. The remaining
coolant flows through a by-pass hose (9) at the
thermostat housing and back to the water pump to
complete the first cycle.
When the normal engine running temperature is
reached, the thermostat opens, closing off the by-pass
hose (9). Coolant is then circulated via the top hose
(6) and through the radiator, where it is cooled and
drawn from the radiator bottom hose (3) by the water
pump (5). The coolant circulation through the
crankcase and cylinder head remains the same.
Two bleed pipes (10) and (11) help control the system
pressure by purging excess air and coolant to the
expansion tank via the 'Y'piece ejector (12).VISCOUS FAN
Description
The viscous drive unit for the engine cooling fan,
provides a means of controlling the speed of the fan
relative to the running temperature of the engine. The
viscous unit is a type of fluid coupling, which drives
the fan blades by means of 'silicone fluid'.
1.Input (drive) member
2.Output (driven) member
3.Sensing mechanism (bi-metal coil)
The fan drive has to be engaged only periodically,
between 5% and 10%, during normal operating
conditions, because the engine is cooled by ram air
for most of the time.

MANUAL GEARBOX
1
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION R380 GEARBOX
Description
The all synchromesh five speed manual gearbox unit,
is married to a two speed transfer gearbox.
All the gears, including reverse, run on needle roller
bearings and the main, layshaft and primary shafts
are supported by tapered roller bearings.The whole of the geartrain is lubricated through
drillings in the shafts, supplied by a low pressure
pump driven from the rear of the layshaft. The gear
change has a single rail selector and spool type
interlock. The main and transfer gearboxes ventilate
through nylon pipes, which terminate high up in the
engine compartment to prevent water entry when the
vehicle is operating in adverse conditions.
