STEERING COLUMN
• When installing the steering column, finger-tighten all of the lower bracket and joint retaining bolts;
then tighten them to specification. Do not apply undue stress to the steering column.
• The lower nut on the upper joint may not be reused.
NOTE:
Align slit of the coupling joint with projection on dust cover. Insert the
joint until surface "A" contacts surface "B".
• After installation, turn steering wheel to make sure it moves
smoothly. Make sure the number of turns are the same from the
straight-forward position to left and right locks. Make sure that the
steering wheel is in a neutral position when driving straight ahead.
• When installing steering column to steering member, install mount-
ing nut from front side of vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• After installing steering column to vehicle, check tilt device operation range is within specification.
• Check if steering wheel operation can turn to the end of the left and
right stops smoothly.
