sure compressed air.
2. INSPECT DISCS, PLATES AND FLANGE
Check if the sliding surfaces of the discs, plates and
flange are worn or burnt. If necessary, replace them.
HINT:
If the lining of the disc is peeling off or discolored, or
even if a part of the printed numbers are defaced, re-
place all discs.
Before assembling new discs, soak them in ATF for
at least 15 minutes.
FORWARD CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
1. INSTALL OIL SEAL RINGS
Install the 2 oil seal rings to the shaft.
NOTICE: Do not spread the ring ends more than necessary.
HINT: After installing the oil seal rings, check that they
move smoothly.

OVERDRIVE CASE ASSEMBLY
1. INSTALL OIL SEAL RINGS ON OVERDRIVE CASE
Install the oil seal rings to the O/D case groove, then snug
them down by squeezing their ends together.
HINT: After installing the oil seal rings, check that they
move smoothly.
2. INS TALL C
0 ACCUMULATOR PISTON OF OVER-
DRIVE CLUTCH
(a) Install a new O±ring to the accumulator piston. Coat the
O±ring with ATF.
