TOOL MAINTENANCE
1. Empty and rinse after each use. Fill the can withwater and pressurize the can. Flush the dischargeline to ensure that the unit is clean.
2. lf discharge liquid does not foam, the orifice may beblocked.
3, To clean, disconnect the plumbing from the tank atthe large coupling nut,
4. Remove the in-line filter trom the discharge side andclean if necessary.
5. The fluid oritice is located behind the filter.
Clean it with the pick stored in the bottom of the tankhandle or blow it clean with air. Securely reassem-
ble all parts.

automatic transaxle gear position indicator follows the
automatic transaxle gear position swatch.
9. Start the engine, and check the shift lever in allgears'

Limited Slip Differential (B18C5 engine)
Description (cont'd)
When roundang a curve
When the vehacle rounds a curye, tne differential allows the outer wheel to rotate a little faster than the inner wheel.
when this takes p|ace. the short and |ong pinion gears rotate, and wa|k around the side gears in the directions
shown. lf, for example. the right shaft is rotated in a counterclockwise direction with the differential carrier held sta-
tionary, the force is transmitted through the right side gear, short pinion gears and long pinion gears to the left side
gear, causing the left shaft to rotate in a clockwise direction. This allows the outer wheel to turn more times than the
inner wheel when the vehicle goes around a turn.
PINION GEARILONG)
When limiting differential action
The limited slip differential acts to limit the differential action when either wheel slips on ice or snow or on turn. This
is done by using the friction created between each gear and differential carrier:"''
(1) The pinions are forced against the differential carrier by the force as they are- rotated and repelled outward.
(2) The ends of the pinion gears are held firmly against the differential carrier due to the side thrust from the heli-
callY cut gears.
CARRIEB
TTFT SHAFT
RIG}IT SHAFT
With the pinion gears locked, the torque applied to the slipping wheel is reduced 8nd the torque delivered to the
other wheel is increased.
