ENGINE ASSEMBLY
Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
For engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in PARTS
CATALOG.
CAUTION:
Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.
Never start working until exhaust system and engine coolant are cool enough.
If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, refer to the applicable sections.
Always use the support point specified for lifting.
Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for unavoid-
able reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool before
starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.
For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-30, "
Garage Jack and
Safety Stand and 2-Pole Lift".
