Sleeve Condition
Check and see that there is no wear, damage, or cracking
in the sleeve.
NOTE: Close inspection of the groove and inner gear are
required because those are important parts.
Sleeve Function
412RW011Operate the sleeve with the inner shaft combined with the
clutch gear. If roughness is felt, replace the sleeve.
NOTE: Gear oil should be applied to the contact surface
of gear.
Check the width of sleeve center groove.
Limit: 7.1 mm (0.28 in) max.
412RW022
Clutch Gear Condition
Check and see that there is no wear, damage, cracking,
or any other abnormality in the clutch gear.
Clutch Gear Function
412RW010If there is an abnormality such as roughness when
operated in combination with sleeve, replace the clutch
gear.
NOTE: When inspecting, gear oil should be applied to the
contact surface of gear.

If there is an abnormality, replace the actuator as an
assembly.
NOTE:
1. If the actuator works under –400mmHg or less, there
is no functional problem.
2. Be careful not to permit the entry of water or dust into
the ports of the actuator.
Dimensional Check
Measure illustrated sizes 1, 2, and 3.
