NOTICE:

  • Do not apply excessive torque to the steering wheel assembly set bolt by using a tool such as an impact wrench.
  • The steering wheel assembly set bolt is used for turning the steering main shaft during inspection of the steering main shaft rotating torque.
  • Remove the steering wheel assembly set bolt after performing this inspection.

(b) Secure the steering column assembly in a vise using aluminum plates, cloths and wooden blocks.

NOTICE:

  • Do not overtighten the vise, as the steering column assembly may become deformed.
  • Support the steering column assembly with wooden blocks or similar items to ensure that it does not fall.
