Precautions for Drive Shaft

INFOID:0000000001666527

CAUTION:

Observe the following precautions when disassembling and assembling drive shaft.
• Joint sub-assembly does not disassemble because it is non-overhaul parts.
• Perform work in a location which is as dust-free as possible.
• Before disassembling and assembling, clean the outside of parts.
• Disassembled parts must be carefully reassembled in the correct order. If work is interrupted, a

clean cover must be placed over parts.

• Paper shop cloths must be used. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of the danger of lint

adhering to parts.

• Disassembled parts (except for rubber parts) should be cleaned with kerosene which shall be

removed by blowing with air or wiping with paper shop cloths.
