●Do not reuse the drained transfer oil.
●Check the oil level with the vehicle on the level ground.
●During removal and installation, be careful not to allow foreign material such as dust or dirt to enter into
the transfer unit.
●Before starting diagnosis of the vehicle, understand trouble symptoms well. Perform correct and system-
atic operations.
●Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If mating marks are required, be
certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts they are applied to.
●Carry out the work in a clean work place. Using a dust proof room is recommended.
●Before disassembly, using steam or white gasoline, completely remove sand and mud from the exterior of
the unit, preventing them from entering into the unit during disassembly or assembly.
●Check appearance of the disassembled parts for damage, deformation, and abnormal wear. If a malfunc-
tion is detected, replace it with a new one.
●Normally replace O-rings, oil seals, bearings, and lock nuts with new ones every time they are removed.
●In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.
●Clean and flush the parts sufficiently and blow them dry.
●Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.
●Always use shop paper for cleaning the inside of components.
●Do not use cotton gloves or a shop cloth. Using them may leave lint on the surface of the parts.
●During assembly always tighten bolts and screws to specified torque. New transfer oil a petroleum jelly
such as "Vaseline", or multi-purpose grease as appropriate.
●Discard waste oil after oil changes or part treatment in accordance with local laws and regulations.
