NOTE:
. Clean all parts thoroughly in solvent or carburetor
cleaner, and dry them with compressed air.
. Blow out all passages.
. Lubricate all parts with CW Fluid before reassembly.
1. Inspect the check valve; if it's loose, replace the pis-
ton.

There may be the sliding marks from the sealring on the wall of the valve housing. Replace
the valve housing only if the wall is stepped.When the valve housing is replaced, jnstall new
shim(s) on the bearing surface of the housing toadjust the thickness.
Check the inside of valve housingwhether the wall is stepped.

NOTE: Only reinstall the original 32 mm shim(s)
when the steering gearbox is reassembled without
replacing the pinion shatt, valve housing, and gear
box housing with new ones.
lf the pinion shaft, valve housing, and gearbox
housing are replaced, select the new shim{s) as fol-
lows.
Shim selection:
a. Set the four 32 mm shims on the bearing surface of
the gearbox housing. Total thickness of the four
shims should equal no more than 0 70 mm'
Shim set: four 32 mm shims (Thickness: 010 mm'
