- INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE BAFFLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
HINT:
- Perform this procedure only when replacement of the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly is necessary.
- If the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly is removed, replace it with a new one.
- Type A (w/ Tail Exhaust Pipe Baffle)
- Align the cutout of a new tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly with the protrusion (for position alignment) of the tail exhaust pipe assembly as shown in the illustration.
*a Protrusion (for position alignment) *b Protrusion (for stopper) *c Cutout - Insert the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly to the position where it can be pressed in by hand.
- Using a plastic-faced hammer and wooden block, uniformly tap the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly onto the tail exhaust pipe assembly.NOTE:
- Lightly tap the top and bottom of the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly so that the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly is pressed in without a tilt.
- Press the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly in until the protrusion on the tail exhaust pipe assembly is fit into the cutout area of the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly.
- Check that there is no looseness in the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly.
*a Baffle Edge *b Protrusion (for stopper) *c Cutout *d Wooden Block
- Align the cutout of a new tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly with the protrusion (for position alignment) of the tail exhaust pipe assembly as shown in the illustration.
*a Guide Line *b Cutout Type B
- Align the cutout of a new tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly with the guide line of the tail exhaust pipe assembly as shown in the illustration.
- Using a plastic hammer, uniformly tap the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly onto the tail exhaust pipe assembly.
