Precaution for Drain Engine Coolant and Engine OilINFOID:0000000006289509
Drain engine coolant and engine oil when engine is cooled.
Precaution for Disconnecting Fuel PipingINFOID:0000000006289510
Before starting work, check no fire or sp ark producing items are in the work area.
Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.
After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precaution for Handling High Pressure Fuel SystemINFOID:0000000006289511
High pressure fuel system components are betw een high pressure fuel pump and fuel injector.
Always release fuel pressure and never start the engine when performing removal and installation.
When removing or installing parts without releasing fuel pressure, fuel may be splashed and, if fuel contacts
skin or eyes, it may cause inflammation.
Precaution for Removal and DisassemblyINFOID:0000000006289512
When instructed to use SST, use specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or unin-

where noted in the step.
Precaution for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementINFOID:0000000006289513
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precaution for Assembly and InstallationINFOID:0000000006289514
Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.
When tightening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with the
ones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is specified,
do exactly as specified.
Replace with new gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.
Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for
any restriction and blockage.
Dowel pins are used for several parts alignment. When replacing and reassembling parts with dowel pins,
check that dowel pins are installed in the original position.
