Refitting

Clean the contact surfaces between the cylinder head and engine block.

Position the cylinder head gasket with the wording "ALTO" [TOP] facing the operator.

Because the gasket is made out of special material, it undergoes a polymerisation process during engine operation and hardens considerably during usage.

In order for the polymerization process to take place the gasket must be kept in its sealed nylon container and only taken out just before fitting to prevent getting oil on it.

1. Position the cylinder head (1a) and tighten the fixing bolts (1b) to a pre-torque of 2 daNm and then to torque following the order and the figures given.

2. Always following the same tightening order, complete the angular tightening of the bolts using a suitable tool.
