Pipe Assembly: Installation

Interconnect pipes C and D.
Tightening torque:
1. Joint nut: 15 N.m (1.5 kgf-m, 10.8 ft-lb)
CAUTION: Visually check that hose between tank and pipe D is free from bending or twisting.

Fig 1: Identifying Pipe C & D From Oil Tank
Tighten bolt A.
1. Tightening torque: 13 N.m (1.3 kgf-m, 9.4 ft-lb)
Temporarily connect pipes C and D to pipes (on the gearbox side).

Fig 2: Connecting Pipes C & D On The Gearbox Side
Temporarily install clamp E on pipes C and D.
CAUTION: Ensure that the "8" letter side of clamp E is on the pipe C side.
Tighten joint nut.
1. Tightening torque: 15 N.m (1.5 kgf-m, 10.8 ft-lb)
Tighten clamp E firmly.
1. Tightening torque: 5.4 N.m (0.55 kgf-m, 4.0 ft-lb)
Connect pipes A and B to four pipe joints of gearbox. Connect upper pipe B first, and lower pipe A second.
Tightening torque: 13 N.m (1.3 kgf-m, 9.4 ft-lb)

Install jack-up plate.
Connect battery minus terminal.
Feed the specified fluid and discharge air.
CAUTION: Never start the engine before feeding the fluid; otherwise vane pump might be seized up.
Finally check clearance between pipes and/or hoses, as shown.
If clearance between cruise control pump and power steering hose is less than 10 mm (0.39 in), proceed as follows:
1. Move clamped section (A) (refer to figure) down to a point where pipe is close to crossmember (pipe-to-crossmember clearance: 10 mm (0.39 in), min.).
2. Check that clearance between cruise control pump and power steering hose is at least 10 mm (0.39 in). If it is not, bend section (B) down until a clearance of at least 10 mm (0.39 in) is obtained.
