SERVICE RULES

1) Use Honda-recommended lubricants or their equivalents.
2) When torquing bolts or nuts, begin with larger-diameter or inner bolts first and tighten to the specified torque
diagonally, unless a particular sequence is specified.
3) Lubricate any sliding surfaces before reassembly.
4) After reassembly, check all parts for proper installation and operation.
5) Metric bolts, nuts and screws are not interchangeable with non-metric fasteners. The use of incorrect tools
and fasteners will damage the unit.
6) Hold the connector body to disconnect the connector. Do not disconnect by pulling the wire harness. To
disconnect the locking connector, be sure to unlock first, then disconnect.
7) Check the connector terminals for bend, excessive extrusion, missing terminal, or other abnormalities
before connecting the connector.
8) To connect, insert the connector as far as it goes. If the connector is a locking type, be sure that it is locked
securely.
9) Check the connector cover for breakage and check whether the connector female terminal is not open
excessively. Then, connect the connector securely. Check the connector terminal for rust. Remove the rust
using an emery paper or equivalent material before connecting the connector.
10) Set the harness clips in the specified places securely, and secure the wire harness.
11) Clamp the cables securely.
12) Clamp the wire harnesses securely so that they do not interfere with the rotating parts, moving parts and
the hot parts.
13) Route and connect the wire harnesses properly. Be sure that the harnesses are not slack, twisted or pulled
taut.
14) Route the wire harnesses properly so that they do not contact with the sharp edges and corners, and the
end of the bolts and screws on the body.
15) If a wire harness contacts the end of the bolts/screws or sharp edges and corners, protect the contact part
of the wire harness with a tube or by winding with electrical insulating tape. If the wire harness has a
grommet, set the grommet securely.
