of the product. Be preparedto collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.

NOTICE

Keep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear andshortened component life.

Note: Put identification marks on all hoses, on all hose assembliesand on all tube assemblies for installation purposes. Plug all hose assemblies and tube assemblies. Plugging hose assembliesand tube assemblies helps to prevent fluid loss and helps to keep contaminants from entering the system.

Do not disconnect the air linesuntil the air pressure in the system is at zero. If hose is disconnectedunder pressure it cancause personal injury.

1. Release the pressure from the air system. Refer to the Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) for the correct procedure.

2. If the engine is equipped with a hydraulic pump on the rear of the air compressor, remove the hydraulic pump. Refer to the OEMfor the correct procedure.

3. Drain the coolant from the cooling system into a suitable container for storage or for disposal. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Cooling System Coolant - Change" for the correct draining procedure.

4. Use Tooling (A) in order to rotate the crankshaft so that number one piston is at the top center position on the compression stroke. Refer to Systems Operation, Testing and Adjusting, "Finding Top Center Position for No.1 Piston".

Note: The air compressor must be timed with the engine in order to minimize engine vibration.
