Standard Tightening Torque
Each fastener should be tightened to the torque specified in each section. If no description or specification is provided,
refer to the following tightening torque chart for the applicable torque for each fastener. When a fastener of greater
strength than the original one is used, however, use the torque specified for the original fastener.
NOTE
• For the flanged bolt, flanged nut and self-lock nut of 4T and 7T strength, add 10% to the tightening torque given in the following chart.
• The following chart is applicable only where the fastened parts are made of steel light alloy.

Vehicle Lifting PointsS7RS0B0101005
WARNING!
• Before applying hoist to underbody, always take vehicle balance throughout service into
consideration. Vehicle balance on hoist may change depending on what part to be removed.
• Before lifting up the vehicle, check to be sure that end of hoist arm is not in contact with brake pipe,
fuel pipe, bracket or any other part.
• When using frame contact hoist, apply hoist as shown (right and left at the same position). Lift up
the vehicle till 4 tires are a little off the ground and make sure that the vehicle will not fall off by
trying to move vehicle body in both ways. Work can be started only after this confirmation.
• Make absolutely sure to lock hoist after vehicle is hoisted up.

When Using Floor Jack
WARNING!
If the vehicle to be jacked up only at the front
or rear end, be sure to block the wheels on
ground in order to ensure safety.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to
support it on stands. It is extremely
dangerous to do any work on the vehicle
raised on jack alone.
CAUTION!
• Never apply jack against rear suspension parts (i.e., stabilizer, etc.) or vehicle floor,
or it may get deformed.
• When jacking up the front end, be sure to use an air type floor jack with the following
specified height or a manual type floor jack
of the following size. Otherwise, the jack
may cause the bumper or vehicle body
panel a damage.
Jack size
Height “h”: under 145 mm (under 5.71 in.)
Length “l”: above 900 mm (above 35.4 in.) In raising front or rear vehicl
e end off the floor by jacking,
be sure to put the jack a gainst front suspension frame
(1) or rear jacking bracket (2).
To perform service with either front or rear vehicle end
jacked up, be sure to place safety stands (1) under body
mounting stay (2) so that vehicle body is securely
supported. And then check to ensure that body mounting
stay (2) does not slide on safety stands (1) and the
vehicle is held stable for safety’s sake.

side.
Engine
• Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.
• Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration.
Body, Wheels and Power Transmitting System
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting system
are free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration or
any other abnormal condition.
