a steering wheel. No manual adjustment to the rack and pinion gear assembly is required. A spring loaded
self-adjusting mechanism is incorporated into the assembly.

See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-1.

STEERING WHEEL REMOVAL

1. Disconnect the battery cables as instructed. See WARNING "To avoid unintentionally starting..." in
General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
2. Remove the two mounting screws (8) and plate (1) (Figure 7-3, Page 7-3).
3. Match mark the steering wheel (7) and steering column shaft (9) so when the steering wheel is removed
it can be placed back in exactly the same position on steering column shaft.
4. Loosen the steering wheel bolt (6) and back it off approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm). Do not remove the bolt.
5. If it is difficult to remove the steering wheel, use the steering wheel puller (CCI P/N 102061201) to remove
steering wheel.
5.1. Place the puller anvil (4) through the top opening of the steering wheel (Figure 7-1, Page 7-2).
5.2. Insert the anvil feet through the two slots in the base plate (marked "B") (5) as shown (Figure 7-1,
Page 7-2).
5.3. Rotate the anvil screw (6) clockwise until the base plate contacts the bottom of the steering wheel
where it attaches to the steering column (Figure 7-2, Page 7-2).
5.4. Using a 1/2 inch drive air impact wrench, tighten the anvil screw (6) until the steering wheel breaks
free from the steering shaft.
5.5. Remove the steering wheel puller.
