  4. Check the rubber sleeves of the locating pins. Replace if necessary.
  5. Lubricate the locating pins using grease (part no. 1161325-4, or equivalent) and insert the locating pins into the rubber sleeves. The pins should slide into the sleeves easily. Tighten them to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
