6A – 46 ENGINE MECHANICAL

Transmission

1. Check that the lifting wires

Q

are securely attached.

2. Operate the hoist to slightly raise the engine.
Warning:
Take care not to lift the chassis from the chassis
stands.
If you do accidentally raise the chassis from the
chassis stands, make absolutely certain that the
chassis stands are correctly positioned before
lowering the chassis.

3. Place

the

jack

R

beneath the transmission case.

4. Operate the jack to slightly raise the transmission.

5. Remove the transmission member lower mounting

bolts

S

fixing the transmission member to the chassis

frame rail.

6. Loosen the engine mounting nuts

T

at the rubber

mountings.

7. Use the jack to slightly lower the transmission.
8. Remove the remaining transmission coupling bolts.
9. Separate the transmission from the engine.

Take care not to damage the transmission, the
engine, and their related parts.

10. Use the jack to lower the transmission together with

from the

chassis frame.

12. Use the hoist to lift the engine from the engine

compartment.

Important Operations – Installation

Follow the removal procedure in the reverse order to
perform the installation procedure. Pay careful attention to
the important points during the installation procedure.

Engine

1. Attach a lifting wire to the engine lifting hanger.
2. Operate the hoist to position the engine above the

engine compertment.
Hold the front of the engine slightly higher than the
rear.

3. Slowly lower the engine into the engine compartment.

Be careful not to damage the brake pipes, the fuel
pipes, and other exposed parts.

4. Support the oil pan with a jack.






5. Temporarily tighten the engine front mounting rubber

nuts.

Transmission

1. Apply a thin coat of molybdenum disulfide grease to

the top gear shaft spline.

2. Place the transmission with the mounting rubbers on a

transmission jack.

3. Carefully move the transmission jack and

transmission into position behind the cab.

4. Slowly raise the transmission jack until the front of the

transmission is aligned with the engine flywheel.
The slope of the engine and the transmission must be
the same.

5. Align the top gear shaft spline with the clutch driven

plate internal spline.

6. Install the transmission to the engine.
