Check Point
1. Confirm that an adequate clearance is secured for
engine parts from standstill to maximum engine
load because there is relative motion of the engine
unit and the vehicle body.
2. As a general rule, do not install parts on the
engine side.
3. When installed on the engine unit, confirm that
there is no effect on the engine unit.
Since it is necessary to move the transmission
assembly backward for the purpose of pulling out the
clutch spline shaft when removing and installing
clutch and transmission assembly, do not arrange
mounting equipment in this area.
