FILLING AND ADJUSTING THE PNEUMATIC OIL GAUGE
A _ FILLING
147% 1. Remove the map pocket on the driver’s side and
the supporting bracket for the oil gauge unit.
2. Check that the pump ( 1 ) f o,,v pivrv ur,il 1 and the
rubber piping clue not soiled with oil.
If they are. replace the pump. and blow through
pipes with compressed air. 3. Filling the gauge :
WARNING : This operation is to be carried out
with great care so as to fill the gauge with LHM
Fluid which is not emtilsified.
- Disconnect tube (2 ) from the unit so as to get
to the filler orifice o b 11.
- Undo completely the calibrating screw ( marked
with (IIPXJ ) to allow the gauge to be adjusted on
completion of the operation.
a) Using CI hypodermic syringe. slowly inject
2.4 cm3 [ 0.146 in3 ) of LHM fluid into
orifice a b n of the gauge.

After the fluid has stabilised in the gauge
the surface of the fluid must be level with

( within 1.5 mm 1.
b ) Repeot the operation using the << max a) CX tube
in the simulotar jar to check the max. level
in the gauge. 3. Calibrating the gauge :
a) Depress
the oil qauqe pump knob ( 1 1 and
maintain it fully depressed.
When the liquid is stabi!ised in the gouge,
adjust the calibrating screw 1 marked with
arrow ) so that the level indicated on the gauge
is the same as that indicated on the
manual gauge.
b) Release the pump knob
- the level of the liquid should fall below
the min. mark on the gauge.
c) Repeat the adjustment to check that the levels
correspond exactly.

4. Checking the main accumulator : a) Disconnect HP inlet pipe ( 1) from safety
valve.
b) Plug HP inlet pipe fusing p[u~s D
and E ). : c ) Tighten pressure regulator bleed screw.
Disconnect contact breaker lead from coil.
Operate storter,watching the pressure g”“ge :
the pressure should rise steadily and then
appear to stobilize.
Note this reading, which is the inflation
pressure of acc”mulator.
This preksure must equal 62 ‘, To

(899 IE,psi) Corned lead of contact breaker
5. Checking cut-out :
a) Checking cut-out ~TPSSU~~~ : Start engine.
With pressure regulator bleed screw tightened,
examine the pressure gauge.
When pressure stops rising, reading indicates
maximum cut-out pressure.
This pressure m”st be equal to
170 t’5 bars
(2466 ?,73 p:i ). When the c”t-o”t pressure is obtained allow
the engine to nrn for a few minutes in order
to stabilize pressure.
Stop engine.
Examine the pressure gauge and note the fall
in pressure for the next 3
minutes. If the fall in’pressure exceeds
10 bark 4 145psi) check seai of plug D and repeat, the test sequence.
If the result of test is the some, the pressure
regulator is defective,
Replace it 01 repair it.
When cutout takes place, slightly slacken
pressure regulator bleed screw.
The pressure should fall gently then rise (IS~.
soon (IS the HP pump begins to operate.
The minimum reading indicated on tbe pressure
gauge corresponds to the cut-in pressure.
This pressure must be 145 +,5 bars
(2103 ?,73
psi ). If these cut-in and cot-out pressures do
not lie within the given tolerances, check the
pressure regulator.
c) Slacken the pressure regulator bleed screw.
d) Remove plug D and connect HP inlet pipe ( 1)
to safety valve.

The crossmember supporting the steering has slots at its fixing point on the front subframe.
Any vertical movement of this crossmember alters the steering geometry.
WARNING
This operation is only to
be carried out in certain ccxses such as
-accidental impact, with repercussions on the steering system.
-work on the vehicle entoiling removal of steering crossmember.
- vehicle with poor
road stability ( p oar stright-line stability) 01 with excessive tyre weor.

Secure a weighted length of string to the front
bumper. and
mark the position of the weiqht on
the ground ( The
object of this is to always bring
the vehicle
