Operation process
   
–  Hook the support tool -3033- on the engine and on the workshop crane -VAS 6100-, as shown in the figure.
Flywheel end: Position 4.
Vibration damper end: Position 8.
Installation is carried out in reverse order, noting the following:
  Note
t  When fitting, replace the self-locking nuts and bolts.
t  Renew bolts which have a specified tightening angle, as well as seals and gaskets.
t  Secure all hose connections with the correct hose clips (same as original equipment) → Parts catalogue.
t  Clean input shaft splines and, for used clutch plates, hub splines; remove corrosion and apply a thin coat of grease → Parts Catalogue to the splines. Then move the clutch plate on the input shaft from side to side, until the hub moves smoothly on the shaft. Excess grease must be removed.

–  Check whether dowel sleeves for centring the engine/gearbox assembly are fitted in the cylinder block; install if necessary.
–  Observe that the intermediate plate is fitted on sealing flange and is slid onto the dowel sleeves -arrows-.
–  Check the centring of the clutch drive plate → Rep. gr.30 .
–  Check clutch release bearing for wear and renew if necessary.
–  Lightly grease the clutch release collar, release collar sleeve and the input shaft teeth → Parts Catalogue.
–  Bolt gearbox onto engine.
  Note
t  Tightening torques apply only to lightly greased, oiled, phosphated or black-finished nuts and bolts.
t  Additional lubricants such as engine or gearbox oil may be used, but do not use lubricants containing graphite.
t  Use is never to be made of degreased parts.
t  Tolerance for tightening torques: ± 15 %.
