0-7 OPERATING TIPS GENERAL 1. Safe operation (1) After jacking up, always support the vehicle with wooden blocks and rigid stands. (2) When hoisting the vehicle, use wire ropes with sufficient reserve in load capacity. (3) Always disconnect the battery plug before the inspection or servicing of electrical parts. (4) The operator must always extract and carry the engine key when entering the area under the vehicle. (5) When 2 or more persons work as a group, always assign an instructor and operate according to his instructions. 2. Tactful operation (1) Prepare the tools, necessary measuring instruments (circuit tester, megohmmeter, oil pressure gauge, etc.) and SSTs before starting operation.
(2) Check the cable color and wiring state before disconnecting any wiring. (3) When overhauling functional parts, complicated sections or related mechanisms, arrange the parts neatly to avoid confusion. (4) When disassembling and inspecting a precision part such as the control valve, use clean tools and operate in a clean location. (5) Always follow the specified operation steps for disassembly, inspection, reassembly and adjustment. (6) Always replace gaskets, packing, O-rings, self-locking nuts and cotterpins with new ones whenever they are disassembled. (7) Use genuine Toyota parts for replacement.
(8) Use specified bolts and nuts and observe the specified tightening torque when reassembling. (Tighten to the medium value of the specified tightening torque range.) If no tightening torque is specified, use the value given in the "standard tightening torque table". 3. Defect status check Do not start disassembly and/or replacement immediately, but first check that disassembly and/or replacement is necessary for the defect. 4. Waste fluid disposal Always use a proper container to collect draining waste fluid from the vehicle. Careless discharge of oil, fuel, coolant, oil filter, battery or other harmful substance may adversely affect human health and the environment.
Always collect and sort them well, and ask specialized companies for appropriate disposal.
