1. REMOVE DAMPER STAY FROM HOOD
Remove the 2 bolts and support from the hood.
HINT:
While supporting the hood with your hand, remove the hood.
2. REMOVE DAMPER STAY FROM BODY
Remove the 2 bolts and support.
3. REPLACE DAMPER STAY
NOTICE:
Do not disassemble the damper stay because the cyl-
inder is filled with pressurized gas.
If the damper stay is to be replaced, drill a 2.0 − 3.0 mm
(0.079 − 0.118 in.) hole as shown in the illustration to
completely release the high− pressure gas before dis-
posing of it.
When drilling, chips may fly out so work carefully.
The gas is colorless, odorless and non −toxic.
When working, handle the damper stay carefully.
Never score or scratch the exposed part of the piston
rod, and never allow paint or oil to get on it.
Do not turn the piston rod and cylinder with the damp-
er stay fully extended.

BODY SIDE PROTECTION MOULDING
BO−43
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
INSTALLATION
HINT:
Precautions for storing moulding materials:
Store in cool place, avoiding direct sunlight, high temper-
ature and dust.
The moulding is of polyvinyl chloride, so do not allow it to
come in contact with thinner or other solvent, open flame,
or boiling water.
The storage time for the moulding and adhesive are lim-
ited to about 9 months.
1. CLEAN MOULDING MOUNTING SURFACE
Wipe off stains with cleaner.
2. HEAT BODY MOUNTING SURFACE
Using a heat light, heat the body mounting surface to 30 −50 ° C
(86−122 °F).
NOTICE:
When the moulding is installed, the temperature of the
mounting surface should be 20 °C (68 ° F) or higher.
3. HEAT MOULDING
(a) Using a heat light, heat the moulding to 30 −60 °C
(86−140 °F).

3. INSPECT DRIVE BELTS
(a) Visually check the drive belt for cracks, oiliness or wear.
Check that the belt does not touch the bottom of the pulley
groove.
If necessary, replace the drive belts as a set.
(b) Using a belt tension gauge, measure the belt tension. Belt tension gauge:
Nippondenso BTG−20 (95506 −00020)
Borroughts No. BT−33−73F
Drive belt tension:
New belt400 − 580 N (41.0 − 59.1 kgf, 90.4 − 130.2 lbf)
Used belt200 − 390 N (20.4 − 40.0 kgf, 45.0 − 88.2 lbf)
If the belt tension is not as specified, adjust it.
HINT:
”New belt” refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on a running engine.
”Used belt” refers to a belt which has been used on a run-
ning engine for 5 minutes or more.
After installing a new belt, run the engine for about 5 min-
utes and recheck the belt tension.
4. VISUALLY CHECK GENERATOR WIRING AND LIS- TEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES
(a) Check that the wiring is in good condition.
(b) Check that there is no abnormal noise from the generator
while the engine is running.
5. INSPECT DISCHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
(a) Turn the ignition switch ”ON”. Check that the discharge warning light comes on.
(b) Start the engine. Check that the light goes off.
