How to Select Piston and Bearing
INFOID:0000000005931034
DESCRIPTION
• The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
• For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the measurement with the values of each selection table.
• For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standar ds and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, follow the applicable procedures.
HOW TO SELECT PISTON
When New Cylinder Block is Used
• Check the cylinder bore grade on rear left side of cylinder block (L), and select piston of the same grade.
• If there is a correction stamp mark on the cylinder block, use it as a
correct reference.
When Cylinder Block is Reused
1. Measure the cylinder bore inner diameter. Refer to EM-219, "Inspection After Disassembly".
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measur ement with the values under the cylinder bore inner
diameter of the “Piston Selection Table”.
