between them with sealing grease -G 052 128- .
♦ Open side of oil seal faces oil.

Nuts and bolts

♦ Loosen and tighten securing bolts and securing nut for covers
and housings diagonally.
♦ Torque settings are specified for unoiled bolts and nuts.
♦ Threads of bolts secured with locking fluid must be cleaned
with a wire brush. Then insert bolts with locking fluid AMV 185
100 A1.
♦ Use a thread chaser to clear residual locking fluid from all
threaded holes into which self-locking bolts are to be screwed.
Otherwise there is a danger of bolts shearing when subse‐
quently being removed.
♦ Always renew self-locking bolts and nuts.

Electrical components

You have probably at some time received an electrical shock
when touching a metal object. This is due to the electrostatic
charge of the human body. This charge can disturb the function
of electrical components of the gearbox and of the selector mech‐
anism.
– Before beginning work on electrical components, touch an
earthed object, for example a water pipe or lifting platform. Do
not touch connectors or "open" electronic components directly.
