DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Do not use damaged or defective tools or
equipment, particularly high-speed equipment such
i as grinding wheels. A damaged grinding wheel can
disintegrate without warning and cause serious
injury.
Wear suitable eye protection when using grinding,
chiseling or sand blasting equipment.
Wear a suitable breathing mask when using
abrasive blasting equipment, working with
asbestos-based materials or using spraying
equipment.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation to control
dusts, mists and fumes.
High Pressure Air, Lubrication and Oil
Test Equipment
See also Lubricants and Greases.
Always keep high-pressure equipment in good
condition, and regularly maintained, particularly at
joints and unions.
Never direct a high-pressure nozzle, for example
diesel injector, at the skin as the fluid may
, penetrate to the underlying tissue, and cause
serious injury.
Halon
See CFCs.
Legal Aspects
There are many laws and regulations relating to
health and safety in the use and disposal of
materials and equipment in a workshop.
For a safe working environment and to avoid
environmental pollution, workshops should be
familiar, in detail, with the many health and safety
laws and regulations within their country, published
by both national and local authorities.
Lubricants and Greases
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with
mineral oils. All lubricants and greases may be
irritating to the eyes and skin.

Transmission Fluids
Safety instructions
Certain Transmission and Power Steering fluids
supplied to Ford may contain additives which have
the potential to cause skin disease (dermatitis) to
exposed persons. The dermatitis may be irritant
or allergic in nature. Risks are higher where
prolonged or repeated skin contact with a fluid may
occur. These fluids are used for vehicle initial
fill
and service purposes. This sub-section is to:
Inform Service personnel who may come into
contact with these vehicle fluids (hazard
communication).
Summarise appropriate workplace control
measures and personal protective equipment
requirements.
Draw attention to the existence of Material
Safety Datasheets (MSDS's) for the fluids
(available from Ford Customer Service Division).
These MSDS's contain detailed information on
hazards and appropriate controls.
Control measures
Workplace risk assessments made under national
chemical control regulations should identify
operations involving the fluids as potentially
hazardous and specify workplace control and
worker awareness measures. In such
circumstances, the relevant Material Safety
Datasheet (see the details specified below) which
specifies hazards and control measures in detail
should be made available for guidance.
Avoid unprotected skin contact with the fluids, and
in particular, avoid prolonged or repeated skin
contact. Work practices should be organised so as
to minimise the potential for skin contact. This may
include the use of drip trays, absorbents, correct
fluid handling equipment (funnels etc), and
workplace housekeeping measures such as the
cleaning of contaminated surfaces.
Personnel engaged in operations where skin
contact could occur (such as fluid draining or filling)
should wear impervious gloves made from
nitrile
rubber, certified to a chemical protection standard,
e.g. Europe Standard EN374. This glove type is
widely available from reputable suppliers of gloves
for chemical protection [including the manufacturers
Ansell-Admont
(Solvex Range), North Safety
products (North
Nitrile Latex Gloves range), and

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
RoadIRoller Testing
I Road or roller testing may be carried out for various
reasons and a procedure detailing pre-test checks,
engine starting and stopping, pre-driving checks,
on-test checks and final checks to be completed
on completion of the test is given below.
Unless complete vehicle performance is being
checked, the full road test procedure need not be
carried out. Instead, those items particularly
relevant to the
system(s) being checked can be
extracted.
Pre-Test Checks
A WARNING:lf the brake system hydraulic
fluid level is low, pedal travel is excessive
or a hydraulic leak is found, do not attempt
to road test the vehicle until the reason for
the low fluid level, excessive pedal travel
or hydraulic leak is found and rectified.
It is suggested that pre-test checks and functional
tests of those systems and circuits which affect the
safe and legal operations of the vehicle, such as
( , brakes, lights and steering, should always be
carried out before the road or roller test.
With the ignition switched off, check:
- the engine oil level.
- the engine coolant level.
- the tires, for correct pressure, compatible types
and tread patterns, and wear within limits.
- that there is sufficient fuel in the tank to
complete the test.
- all around the engine, transmission and under
the vehicle for oil, coolant, hydraulic and fuel
leaks. Make a note of any apparent leaks and
wipe off the surrounding areas to make it easier
to identify the extent of the leak on completion
of the test.
Starting the Engine
N0TE:On initial drive away from cold and within
the first 1.5 km (1 mile), do not depress the
accelerator pedal beyond half travel until the
vehicle has attained a minimum speed of
25 kmlh
(15 mileslh). Never operate at high engine speed
or with the accelerator pedal at full travel whilst the
engine is cold.
With the ignition switched off, check:
- that the parking brake is applied.
- that the gear lever is in the neutral position.
- that all instrument gauges (except fuel gauge)
read zero.
With the ignition switched on, check:
- that the ignition controlled warning lamps are
illuminated.
- that the engine temperature gauge registers a reading compatible with the engine temperature.
- that the fuel gauge registers a reading
appropriate to the fuel level in the tank.
- the operation of the parking brake warning lamp
and fluid level warning indicator.
Road or Roller Testing
A CAUTI0N:lf road testing, check the brake
operation while still traveling at low speed
before continuing with the test. If the
brakes pull to one side, or appear to be
otherwise faulty, do not continue with the
road test until the fault has been found and
rectified.
During the road or roller test, check:
- that the clutch pedal operation is not stiff or
heavy.
- that the initial gear engagement is smooth and
there is no evidence of clutch drag.
- that the parking brake control operates smoothly
and releases quickly and completely.
- that the clutch takes up the drive smoothly,
without slip or judder.
- that gear changing is smooth with no abnormal
noises or vibrations from the transmission.
- the engine power output is satisfactory, full
power is achieved, acceleration is smooth and
pedal operation is not stiff or heavy, and engine
speed returns to idle correctly.
- there is no excessive or abnormally colored
smoke from the engine under normal driving,
heavy load or overrun conditions.
- that steering operation, including power steering
(if equipped), is smooth, accurate, not
excessively heavy or with excessive free play
or vibration.
- that the steering does not pull to one side and
self centers smoothly after cornering.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Step 3: According to each identified operating
condition (Column A, B,
C, D, E, F), check each
possible Steering System
NVH concern with the
detail symptom charts below.
Before conducting a vehicle test to identify a
NVH
concern carry out the following checks.
1. Check the tire pressures and adjust to
specification, as necessary.
2. Make sure the steering system fluid is correct,
the system is free of leaks and is operating
correctly.
3. Make sure the vehicle steering system
temperature is the same as described at the
customer interview.
4. All evaluations must take place in a relatively
quiet location.
5. The heating
- air conditioning (AIC) fan and
radio must be turned off during evaluations and
the windows closed.

Independent of the equipment level, all vehicles

The steering gear is supplied with hydraulic fluid
by a hydraulic pump.
The hydraulic pump is driven by the accessory
drive belt and has a separate reservoir.
Vehicles with petrol engines have a Power Steering
Pressure (PSP) switch in the pressure line, which
opens as the power steering load increases, thus
signalling to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
that it should increase the idle speed.
