With particular regard to the engine and its electric and electronic components, adequate precautions shall be taken to protect:
- on the whole engine and vehicle wiring, including earth contacts; - on all connectors on sensor/actuator side and wiring side; - on all sensors/actuators, on flywheel, on flywheel rev sensor bracket; - on the whole diesel fuel system pipes (plastic and metallic); - on complete diesel fuel filter base; - on control unit and control unit base; - on the whole soundproofing cover inner side (injectors, rail, pipes); - on common rail pump including regulator; - on vehicle electric pump; - on tank; - on front belt circuit and relevant pulleys; - on power steering pump and relevant piping.
If the wheels are removed, protect the contact surfaces on the hubs, avoid increasing the thickness and especially avoid the build-up of paint on the connecting flanges of the wheel disks and contact points of the fixing nuts. Ensure that the disc brakes are adequately protected. The electronic components and modules must be removed. When the painting operation is to be completed by oven drying (max. temp. 80єC), all partswhich may be damaged by exposure to heat(e.g. all electronic control units), must be removed.
