• Write down the serial number of the new transaxle assembly.

• When replacing an engine or transaxle you must make sure any dowels are installed correctly during

re-assembly

• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drive

train components.

• Never reuse O-rings or copper sealing washers.

• When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the front of the engine.

• When tightening the nuts for the torque converter while securing the crankshaft pulley bolt, be sure

to confirm the tightening torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt. Refer to 

EM-248, "Exploded View"

.

• After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft several turns to check that CVT rotates

freely without binding.

• When installing the CVT to the engine, align the matching mark on the drive plate with the matching

mark on the torque converter.

• When installing the drive plate to torque converter nuts, tighten them temporarily. Then tighten the nuts to

the specified torque.

• Install the transaxle assembly and engine assembly mounting bolts according to the following standards.

• When installing charging pipe (1) to transaxle assembly, bracket

(A) of charging pipe surrounds the water hose (2).

• When replaced transaxle assembly, perform "ADDITIONAL SER-

VICE WHEN REPLACING TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY". Refer to
