CautionEDS00056
lBefore starting diagnosis of the vehicle, understand symptoms well. Perform correct and systematic oper-
ations.
lCheck for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. When mating marks are required,
be sure they do not interfere with the function of the parts they are applied to.
lCarry out an overhaul in a clean work place. Using a dust proof room is recommended.
lBefore 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.
lCheck appearance of the disassembled parts for damage, deformation, and abnormal wear. If a malfunc-
tion is detected, replace it with a new one.
lNormally replace lock pins, oil seals, and bearings with new ones every time they are removed.
lIn principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.
lClean and flush the parts sufficiently and blow them dry.
lBe careful not to damage the sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.
lWhen applying sealant, remove the old sealant from the mounting surface; then remove any moisture, oil,
and foreign materials from the application and mounting surfaces.
lAlways use shop paper for cleaning the inside of components.
lAvoid using cotton gloves or a shop cloth to prevent entering of lint.
lDuring assembly, observe the specified tightening torque, and apply new differential oil, Vaseline, or Nis-
san MP Special Grease No. 2, as specified for each vehicle, when necessary.
lDo not reuse drained oil. Discard waste oil after oil changes or part treatment in accordance with local
laws and regulations.
Precautions for Brake SystemEDS000HX
