GENERAL SPECIFICATION: LIFTING AND SUPPORTING THE VEHICLE
Tooling.
[1] Crossbeam : (-). 0010.
Front lifting on one side.
Position the jack (4) at the strongpoints provided for this purpose on each side
of the front crossmember between the bumper (2) and the engine (3).
Front central lifting.
Using a jack equipped with a crossbeam (sufficiently rigid) take the weight at the
two strongpoints on the front crossmember.
GENERAL

Side lifting.
At the front and at the rear
Take the weight at the sill, by means of the crossbeam [1], as close as possible
to the jacking point.
Position a stand at the jacking point provided for the purpose of lifting the
vehicle with the jack.
WARNING : Avoid the battery tray on the right hand side.
Side lifting at both front and rear
Take the weight at the sill, by means of the crossbeam [1].
Position stands at the jacking points provided for the purpose of lifting the
vehicle with the jack.
WARNING : Lifting at the rear of the vehicle using the crossbeam is
STRICTLY PROHIBITED.

GENERAL SPECIFICATION: LIFTING AND SUPPORTING THE VEHICLE
Lifting by means of a two-column workshop lift
WARNING : The removing of components such as the engine/gearbox, rear sub-
frame etc, can cause a displacement of the centre of gravity: Use a lift equipped
with retaining devices to keep the body stable on the lift.
Without body clamps.
Place the lift’s guide pads at each jacking point.
WARNING : To prevent any risk of the vehicle toppling, it is prohibited to
remove mechanical components.

GENERAL
With body clamps
WARNING : These clamps are fitted only on FOG lifts.
Position the clamps at the sill in the jacking points provided, screw heads oriented
towards the outside of the vehicle. Tighten the clamps using the gudgeon pin and,
after tightening, engage the pin in the hole (A).
Towing (front).
Lift the blank with the aid of the flat part of the towing eye (1) and then screw the
eye home.
NOTE : The towing eye is to be found on the front panel inside the engine com-
partment.
Towing (rear).
Lift the blank (1) and screw the towing eye home.

Repair

Respect the precautions to be taken when operating on a vehicle.


The flexible pipe must not come into contact with corrosive products.
Do not distort the flexible pipe by more than 20° angular (X), 20mm axial, 25 mm shear (Y)
(flexible pipe not fitted).

Do not distort the flexible pipe by more than 3° angular (X), 0 mm axial, 3 mm shear (Y)
(flexible pipe in place).

WARNING : Non-respect for these precautions will result in a reduction in the lifetime of
the flexible pipe. It is thus essential to disconnect or remove the exhaust line in any ope-
ration necessitating the lifting of the power unit.

Compressor lubricant.

ESSENTIAL: The compressor lubricant is extremely hygroscopic; always use FRESH oil.

Checking the compressor oil level.


There are three specific cases :
- 1/ Repairs to a system without leaks.
- 2/ Slow leak.
- 3/ Fast leak.

1/Repairing a system without leaks..


a) - Using draining/recovery equipment not fitted with an oil decanter.
- Drain the system as slowly as possible via the LOW PRESSURE valve, so as not to lose any oil.
- No more oil should be added when filling the system with R 134A fluid.
b) - Using draining/filling equipment fitted with an oil decanter.
- Drain the R 134A fluid from the system in accordance with the instructions in the equipment handbook.
- Measure the amount of oil recovered.
- Add the same amount of NEW oil when filling the system with R 134A fluid.
c) - Replacing a compressor.
- Remove the old compressor, drain it and measure the oil quantity.
- Drain the new compressor (supplied full), so that the same amount of NEW oil is left in the compressor as was in the old compressor.
- No more oil should be added when filling the system with R 134A fluid.

Checking the compressor oil level (continued)

2/ Slow leak.

- Slow leaks do not lead to oil loss, therefore the same procedure should be followed as if there was no leak at all.

3/ Fast leak.

This type of leak causes both oil loss as well as allowing air to enter the system.

It is therefore necessary to :

- Replace the dryer.


- Drain as much oil as possible (when replacing the faulty component).

Either before or during filling of the system with R 13A fluid, introduce 80 cc of NEW oil into the system.
