ASSEMBLY
PRECAUTION
(1) The automatic transaxle consists of high-precision-finished parts, necessitating careful inspection
before assembly because even a small nick could cause fluid leakage or affect performance.
(2) Clean out oil holes and oil passages with compressed air, and check that there are no obstructions.
(3) Before assembly, apply ATF to each O-ring, seal ring, rotating part, and friction part.
(4) If the brake band or drive plates are replaced with new ones, first soak them in ATF for at least
2 hours before installing.
(5) Each seal gasket and O-ring must be replaced with a new one.
(6) Be sure to install all thrust bearings and races in the correct direction and position.

(10) Mount the SST and pull scale or torque
wrench on the output gear.
(11) Increase the clearance between A and B
to obtain the specified preload/pull scale
reading.
