Freelander Service Procedures
GENERAL INFORMATION
03-16
'Oetiker' clips may be removed by bending the tag
(arrowed) and releasing the free end of the clip. Clips
must not be re-used. When fitting new clips, ensure
the clip is correctly positioned on the hose before
tightening and that when the clip is tightened, the tag
is located in the longitudinal slot in the free end of the
clip (arrowed in illustration).
Heat protection
Always ensure that heatshields and protective
sheathing are in good condition. Replace if damage
is evident.
Particular care must be taken when routing hoses
close to hot engine components, such as the exhaust
manifold and the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
pipe.
Hoses will relax and deflect slightly when hot; ensure
this movement is taken into account when routing
and securing hoses.
Service tools
General
Special service tools have been developed to
facilitate removal, dismantling and assembly of
mechanical components in a cost effective and time
efficient manner. The use of such special tools also
helps prevent the potential for damage to
components.
Some operations described in this Manual cannot be
carried out properly without the aid of the relevant
service tools.
