STEERING SYSTEM
1) Apply grease to teeth of rack so
that grease applied is about as high as
teeth, and also apply a thin mm of
grease to sliding portion of rack shaft.
NOTE:
a. When moving rack to stroke end
without tie-rod attached, prevent
shocks from being applied at the
end.
b. Do not apply grease to threaded
. portion at end of rack shaft.
c. Move rack shaft to stroke end two
(2) or three (3) times to squeeze
grease which accumulates on both
ends. Remove grease to prevent it
from choking air vent line.
2)
Apply grease to sleeve insertion
hole.
3) Apply grease to dust seal inser-
tion hole.
NOTE:
Apply clean grease with clean hands.
If material having a sharp edge is used
for applying grease, oil seal at the
inside might be damaged.
4) Press-fit dust seal while tapping it
via a spanner or the like so that
stepping between gearbox and dust
seal is nonnally 2 mm (0.08 in).
