Page 17-17) . Do not tighten.
4.3. Begin finger-tightening the bolts (1, 2 and 3) in the sequence indicated. Continue tightening by hand until
the motor is seated in the transaxle housing. See following CAUTION and NOTE.
CAUTION
• Make sure the motor is properly seated in the transaxle housing.
NOTE: Failure to install and tighten the motor mounting bolts in the proper sequence and to the proper tightness may
result in motor noise during operation.
4.4. Tighten the center bolt (3) to 100 in·lb (11.3 N·m).
4.5. Tighten the left and right bolts (1 and 2) to 100 in·lb (11.3 N·m).
4.6. Retighten all three bolts (1, 2 and 3) to 100 in·lb (11.3 N·m).
4.7. Install the motor wires, making sure they are connected to the correct motor terminals and that the terminal
orientation is correct. See page 13-3. Hold the bottom nut of stud with wrench and tighten the terminal
retaining nuts. For 5/16 inch (8mm) diameter studs, tighten the nuts to 100 in·lb (11 N·m). For 1/4 inch
(6.3mm) diameter studs, tighten the nuts to 45 in·lb (5.0 N·m).
4.8. Secure the white, orange, green, and blue wires with a wire tie so that none of the motor wires will scrub the
motor or transaxle when the vehicle is in operation.
