  2.   INTRODUCTION

  

Warning! Failure to adhere to safety and warning instructions may result in personal injury or

 

damage which would invalidate the warranty. The bush extraction and insertion screw maximum 

 

recommended torque is 180Nm.  Exceeding this torque value may shorten the life of the thrust screw  

 

and distort other components. The thrust screw is considered to be a consumable item and is NOT  

 

covered under warranty. Always lubricate the threads male and female with a molybdenum/copper  

 

based grease after removing from the carry case. 

 

Suitable for the removal/installation of the rear trailing arm mounting bushes on Ford vehicles. Can be used in situ without removing the  

 

arm from the vehicle. Also suitable for some Volvo vehicles that share the same Ford platform. Supplied in carry-case.
