ADVICE:
• Only use quality tools and equipment.
• Only use equipment conforming to EU Directives for lifting the vehicle.
• During operations, always keep tools and equipment at hand, possibly laying them out according to the se-
quence in which they are to be used. Absolutely avoid putting them on the vehicle itself, out-of-sight or in poorly
accessible places.
• Always keep the work area clean and tidy.
• When tightening screws or nuts, start with the
larger diameter or inner fasteners, and tighten them in progres-
sive “ pulls ” in accordance to a “ criss-cross ” pattern.
• Preferably use open-end box wrenches by “ pulling ” and not “pushing”.
• Adjustable wrenches (F. 1) should only be used in case of emergency, i.e. when a properly sized wrench is not
available. they should preferably not be used as the movable jaw tends to open thus risking damaging or not
properly tightening the bolt to the correct torque. In any case, when using an adjustable wrench, take care to
proceed as shown in Figure 1.
• Except for occasional customers, always make out and deliver to the customer a work sheet specifying the
operations performed, with notes as to any future checks eventually required.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
• Before carrying out any operation on the vehicle , wait for all parts to cool down.
• For operations requiring two mechanics, make sure that the various steps to be performed by each of them are
clearly defined and coordinated beforehand.
• Make sure that each component has been properly fitted before proceeding with the next one.
• Lubricate all parts (where applicable) before reinstalling them.
• Gaskets, O-rings, circlips and split pins
must be replaced at every refitting.
• The torque settings specified in the manuals refer to the “ final torque ”, which must be attained progressively by
steps.
• Loosen and tighten aluminium alloy parts (covers) only after the engine has fully cooled down .
• Only use screwdrivers with sizes suitable to the screws to be loosened or tightened.
• Work in a comfortable position and ensure that the vehicle is stable.
• Never use a screwdriver as a lever or chisel.
• Never use pincers to loosen or tighten screws or nuts because, in addition to not providing a sufficient clamping
force, they may also damage the screw head or nut hexagon.
• Never tap the wrench with a hammer or other similar tools to loosen or tighten screws and nuts (F. 2).
• Never attempt to increase the lever arm by fitting a tube into the wrench (F. 3).
