GENERAL INFORMATION

Safety Instructions
Whenever possible, use a lift or pit when working
beneath vehicle, in preference to jacking. Chock
wheels as well as applying parking brake.
Jacking
Always use the recommended jacking points.
Always ensure that any lifting apparatus has
sufficient load capacity for the weight to be lifted.
Ensure the vehicle is standing on level ground prior
to lifting or jacking.
Apply the handbrake and chock the wheels.
WARNING: Do not work on or under a vehicle
supported only by a jack. Always support the
vehicle on safety stands.
Do not leave tools, lifting equipment, spilt oil, etc.
around or on the work bench area. Always keep a
clean and tidy work area.
Brake shoes and pads
Always fit the correct grade and specification of
brake linings. When renewing brake pads and brake
shoes, always replace as complete axle sets.Brake hydraulics
Observe the following recommendations when
working on the brake system:
lAlways use two spanners when loosening or
tightening brake pipe or hose connections.
lEnsure that hoses run in a natural curve and are
not kinked or twisted.
lFit brake pipes securely in their retaining clips
and ensure that the pipe cannot contact a
potential chafing point.
lContainers used for brake fluid must be kept
absolutely clean.
lDo not store brake fluid in an unsealed
container, it will absorb water and in this
condition would be dangerous to use due to a
lowering of its boiling point.
lDo not allow brake fluid to be contaminated with
mineral oil, or put new brake fluid in a container
which has previously contained mineral oil.
lDo not re-use brake fluid removed from the
system.
lAlways use clean brake fluid or a recommended
alternative to clean hydraulic components.
lAfter disconnection of brake pipes and hoses,
immediately fit suitable blanking caps or plugs to
prevent the ingress of dirt.
lOnly use the correct brake fittings with
compatible threads.
lObserve absolute cleanliness when working
with hydraulic components.
Cooling system caps and plugs
Extreme care is necessary when removing
expansion tank caps and coolant drain or bleed
screws when the engine is hot, especially if it is
overheated. To avoid the possibility of scalding,
allow the engine to cool before attempting removal.
Air suspension system
Whilst working on the air suspension system, eye
protection must be worn at all times.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Oil Seals
General
Always renew oil seals which have been removed
from their working location (whether as an individual
component or as part of an assembly). NEVER use
a seal which has been improperly stored or handled,
such as hung on a hook or nail.
lCarefully examine seal before fitting to ensure
that it is clean and undamaged.
lEnsure the surface on which the new seal is to
run is free of burrs or scratches. Renew the
component if the original sealing surface cannot
be completely restored.
lProtect the seal from any surface which it has to
pass when being fitted. Use a protective sleeve
or tape to cover the relevant surface.
lLubricate the sealing lips with a recommended
lubricant before use to prevent damage during
initial use. On dual lipped seals, smear the area
between the lips with grease.
lIf a seal spring is provided, ensure that it is fitted
correctly. Place lip of seal towards fluid to be
sealed and slide into position on shaft. Use
fitting sleeve where possible to protect sealing
lip from damage by sharp corners, threads or
splines. If a fitting sleeve is not available, use
plastic tube or tape to prevent damage to the
sealing lip.
lGrease outside diameter of seal, place square
to housing recess and press into position using
great care, and if possible a 'bell piece' to
ensure that seal is not tilted. In some cases it
may be preferable to fit seal to housing before
fitting to shaft. Never let weight of unsupported
shaft rest in seal.lUse the recommended service tool to fit an oil
seal. If the correct service tool is not available,
use a suitable tube approximately 0.4 mm
(0.015 in.) smaller than the outside diameter of
the seal. Use a hammer VERY GENTLY on drift
if a suitable press is not available.
lPress or drift the seal in to the depth of its
housing with the sealing lip facing the lubricant
to be retained if the housing is shouldered, or
flush with the face of the housing where no
shoulder is provided. Ensure that the seal does
not enter the housing in a tilted position.

Precautions for refrigerant recovery, recycling
and recharging
When the air conditioning system is recharged, any
existing refrigerant is first recovered from the system
and recycled. The system is then charged with the
required weight of refrigerant and volume of
refrigerant oil.
WARNING: Refrigerant must always be recycled
before re-use to ensure that the purity of the
refrigerant is high enough for safe use in the air
conditioning system.
Recycling should always be carried out with
equipment which is design certified by
Underwriter Laboratory Inc. for compliance with
SAE J1991. Other equipment may not recycle
refrigerant to the required level of purity.
A R134a Refrigerant Recovery Recycling
Recharging Station must not be used with any
other type of refrigerant.
Refrigerant R134a from domestic and
commercial sources must not be used in motor
vehicle air conditioning systems.
CAUTION: The system must be evacuated
immediately before recharging commences.
Delay between evacuation and recharging is not
permitted.
Air Conditioning Compressor
Replacement
A new compressor is supplied filled with a full charge
(X cm3) of refrigerant oil.

+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS, LUBRICANTS
AND SEALANTS, Capacities.A calculated quantity
of oil must be drained from the new compressor
before fitting. To calculate the quantity of oil to be
drained:
1Remove the drain plug from the old
compressor.
2Invert the compressor and gravity drain the oil
into a calibrated measuring cylinder. Rotate the
compressor clutch to ensure the compressor is
completely drained.
3Note the quantity of oil drained (Y cm
3).
4Calculate the quantity of oil to be drained from
the new compressor using the following
formula:
X cm
3 — (Y cm3 + 20 cm3) = Q cm3
5Remove the drain plug from the new
compressor and drain Q cm3 of oil. Fit and
tighten the compressor drain plug.
