WARNING ON LUBRICANTS AND GREASES
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oils, especially used oils. Used oils contaminated during service (e.g.• engine sump oils) are more irritating and more likely to cause serious effects. including skin cancer. in the event of gross and prolonged skin contact.

Wash skin thoroughly after work involving oil.
Protective hand cleaners may be of value provided they can be removed from the skin with water. Do not use gasoline. paraffin, or other solvents to remove oil from the skin.

Repeated or prolonged skin contact should be avoided by wearing protective clothing if nE?cessary. Particular care should be taken with used oils and greases containing lead. Do not allow work clothing to be contaminated with oil. Dry clean or launder such clothing at regular intervals.

INSTALLATION OF MOBILE TWO-WAY RADIO SYSTEM
If a mobile two-way radio system is installed improperly or if a high-powered type is used, the control unit may be affected.
When the vehicle is to be equipped with a mobile two-way radio, observe the following precautions:

1. Install the antenna at the farthest point from control units.
2. Install the antenna feeder as far as possible from the control unit harnesses (at least 30 cm [11.8 in)).
3. Ensure that the antenna and feeder are properly adjusted. .
4. Do not install a high-powered mobile two-way radio system.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICES

Leakage of Injector

Apply pressure SL engine: 14,715 kPa (150 kg/cm2 , 2,133 psi), HA and TF engines: 1,962 kPa (20 kg/cm2 , 284 psi) lower than the specified injection pressure and see if the fuel leaks from the nozzle injection hole. If the fuel leaks, it is necessary to disassemble, wash and recheck the nozzle or replace it.

Atomizing Condition

1. Connect the nozzle on the nozzle tester.
2. Air bleed by operating the nozzle tester handle several times.
3. Keeping the pressure gauge of the nozzle tester in the nonfunctioning condition, quickly lower the handle (lower the handle as quickly as possible so that a pulsating whistling sound can be heard). Repeat this operation several times and check the atomizing condition.
4. Make sure that the fuel is atomized uniformly and properly.
5. Make sure that the injection angle and direction are normal.
6. If the atomizing condition is incorrect, it is necessary to disassemble, wash and recheck the nozzle, or to replace it.

INSPECTION OF BATTERY

1. Check for corrosion on the terminals and for loose cable connections.
2. Check the electrolyte level. If the level is low, add distilled water to the "UPPER LEVEL" mark.
3. Check the specific gravity with a hydrometer. If the specific gravity reading is 1.23 or less, recharge the battery. (Refer to Section G.)

INSPECTION OF BRAKE AND CLUTCH LINES, HOSES AND CONNECTIONS

Check the brake and clutch lines and hoses for proper attach. ment and connections. There should not be any leaks, cracks, chafing, abrasion, deterioration, etc. on the lines or connections.
