        *a Fuse Shackle
        *b Shackle (A)
      • If the fuse shackle is installed upside down, deformation of the fuse bolt will not be visible and cannot be used to tell if the load capacity of the engine support bridge has been exceeded. If the load capacity is exceeded, it may cause the engine support bridge to damage the vehicle and the engine assembly with transaxle assembly may fall.
      • Make sure that the fuse bolt of the fuse shackle is free of damage, such as deformation or cracks. If damaged, replace the fuse shackle.

      • Do not perform any procedures if the length of dimension (A) and dimension (B) are not equal.
      • Performing any procedure when the length of dimension (A) and dimension (B) are not equal may cause the engine assembly with transaxle assembly and engine support bridge to fall, possibly causing serious injury.
      NOTE:
      • Do not perform any procedures if the chain of the chain block assembly is not straight.
      • When removing the engine mount, if the chain of the chain block assembly is not straight, the engine assembly or transaxle assembly may contact the vehicle body.
