AIR BLEEDING METHOD
AIR BLEEDING METHOD
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000006256011
WARNING:
Always check the piping for loose co
nnections, damage, or twists before starting operation, since
pressure in hydraulic circuit b ecomes high during operation.
When repairing or replacing a malfunctioning pa rt, always release pressure from hydraulic circuit,
since dangerous conditions may be created when oil leakage occurs during air bleeding operation.
CAUTION:
Clean surrounding areas of oil injection jack and air bleeder using steam before starting operation,
since there may be mud on it.
Clean suspension oil pump (special servi ce tool: KV40107700) jack with steam before use.
Check system pressure again 1 day or more after bleeding operation is complete, since system pres-
sure may decrease when air bleeding is insufficient.
1. Lift up the vehicle.
2. Remove protector of PPMU.
3. Remove cap of oil injection jack.
4. Install hose (A) of a suspension oil pump (SST: KV40107700) to oil injection jack.
CAUTION:
Jack must be securely inserted until a click sound can be
heard.
5. Loosen pressure reducing valve (A) of hose portion of suspen- sion oil pump.
6. Set knob (A) of suspension oil pump to the direction as shown in the figure.
7. Close pressure reducing valve of hose portion of suspension oil pump while sending oil by applying pressure using suspension
oil pump. (Air bleeding in hose is complete.)

and wheel arch) is 25 mm (0.98 in) or more.
Inspection ProcedureINFOID:0000000006256017
1.CHECK APPEARANCE
1. Visually check that the exterior parts (e.g. suspension spring) have no malfunctions.
2. Visually check tube and pipe for crush or oil leakage.
Is the check result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
2.CHECK CLOGGING OF ORIFICE IN PPMU
1. Install an oil pressure gauge (SST: KV40108000) (A) to oil injec- tion jack.
CAUTION:
Clean surrounding areas of oi l injection jack using steam
before starting oper ation, since there may be mud on it.
Clean oil pressure gauge (special service tool:
KV40108000) jack with steam before use.
Jack must be securely inserted until a click sound can be heard.
Pressure reducing valve (B) of the oil pressure gauge
must be closed.
2. Loosen needle valves A and C of PPMU by approximately 2 rotations for check changes in vehicle height.
CAUTION:
Never loosen the needle valve more than required.
3. Tighten needle valve A and C of PPMU to the specified torque after the inspection.
Does the vehicle height change 10 mm (0.39 in) or more?
YES >> For detailed inspection of clogging of orifice in PPMU, refer to SCS-27, "
Work Procedure".
