2. Lower mounting bolt tightening
   1. Tighten the lower mounting bolt A.

      Standard value: 50 N.m {510 kgf.cm} {36.9 ft.lbf}

   2. Tighten the ground cable fixing bolt B.

      Standard value: 14 N.m {143 kgf.cm} {10.3 ft.lbf}

3. Tighten the upper mounting bolt of starter assembly using the SST.

   SST 18283AA000

   Standard value: Specified tightening torque

   T=50N.m {510kgf.cm} {36.9ft.lbf}

   When using the SST, calculate the torque using the following formula.

   Formula: T2 = L2/(L1 + L2) XT1

   T1	50 N.m
   T2	Tightening torque
   L1	Length of SST [0.085 m]
   L2	Torque wrench length [m]

   NOTE:

   • This torque value is valid when the SST and torque wrench are aligned on a line.
   • Attach the SST and torque wrench so that they are aligned on a line.
4. Install the wiring harness clamp.
5. Connect the connector and terminal to the starter assembly.

Standard value: T=6.0N.m {61kgf.cm} {4.4ft.lbf}
