Precautions to be taken.
Work with care to avoid entry of polluting particles into the circuit.
NOTE:The correct operation of the system requires perfect cleanliness of the fluid and of the
hydraulic components.
Check:
- The level of the power steering fluid.
- The condition of the piping and unions.
Using the tools.
Prepare the checking assembly [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]and [7].
Attach the tool [1].
Remove the front RH wheel, the splash-shield and the screen wash reservoir.
