Removing and installing/replacing power
steering pump for power steering gear with
Dynamic Drive (N52)

Warning!

Danger of poisoning if oil is ingested/absorbed through the
skin!

Risk of injury if oil comes into contact with eyes and skin!

 

Important!

Adhere to the utmost cleanliness. Do not allow any dirt to
enter the hydraulic system.

Seal off hydraulic lines with plugs.

Important!

Aluminium-magnesium materials.

No steel screws/bolts may be used due to the threat of
electrochemical corrosion.

A magnesium crankcase requires aluminium screws/bolts
exclusively.

Aluminium screws/bolts must be replaced each time they are 
released.

The end faces of aluminium screws/bolts are painted blue for
the purposes of reliable identification.

Jointing torque and angle of rotation must be observed
without fail (risk of damage).

Note:

When replacing power steering pump:

Fluid reservoir must be replaced in event of metal abrasion,
sluggish pump shaft or increased wear!

The filter integrated in the fluid reservoir can only absorb a limited
amount of foreign particles. If the filter clogs, the hydraulic system
can no longer be sufficiently protected.

Metal abrasion is perceived in the fluid reservoir as metallically
glittering hydraulic fluid.

It is only necessary to replace the fluid reservoir because of leaks
(e.g. at hose connections) only in the event of the unavoidably
high ingress of dirt.
