WARNING Risk of injury.  Skin or eye injuries may result when handling hot or glowing objects. Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses, if necessary. AS00.00-Z-0002-01A
WARNING Risk of burn injuries  , suffocation and poisoning when working on the exhaust system and the components connected to it.
Risk of suffocation and risk of poisoning caused by inhalation of gaseous and solid components of the exhaust. Risk of poisoning  caused by skin contact with solid components of the exhaust.
Wear protective clothing and safety glasses.
Use the extraction system. Move people out of the danger zone.
AS49.00-Z-0001-01A
WARNING Risk of accident  from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury  (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. AS00.00-Z-0005-01A
Notice  Notes on avoiding damage through contamination and foreign objects   AH00.00-P-5000-01A
REMOVING Remove

6 Screw screw-in piece into the tapped bore of the cylinder to be checked. SPECIAL TOOL Screw-in fitting Fig 1
7 Connect compression pressure recorder (01) to the screw-in piece. SPECIAL TOOL Compression tester Fig 2
INSPECT Check     
8 Turn engine by pressing the contact switch of the compression pressure recorder (01) until no further pressure rise can be observed on the compression pressure recorder (01).   AR01.10-P-0110MRA
