INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL PRESSURE FEED TUBE
Install the pressure feed tube and gasket to the PS vane pump
assembly with union bolt.
HINT:
Make sure the stopper of the pressure feed tube touches the
front bracket as shown in the illustration, then install the union
bolt.
Torque: 52 N´m (530 kgf´cm, 38 ft´lbf)
2. INSTALL OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
Torque: 21 N´m (210 kgf´cm, 15 ft´lbf)
NOTICE:
Be careful to prevent oil seal from being attached to the
connector.
3. INSTALL PS VANE PUMP ASSEMBLY WITH PRESS-
ER FEED TUBE
Temporarily install the PS vane pump assembly with 2 (A and
B) bolts.
