CAUTION:
CAUTION:Assembly should only be carried out in a clean environment or damage to the transaxle may occur.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:Be careful not to scratch the sliding face or mating faces or damage to the transaxle may occur.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:Visually inspect all parts for any damage, deformation or abnormal wear. Replace any unsuitable parts with new parts only or damage to the transaxle may occur.
