2. If equipped, remove the engine cover (see chapter 2). On diesel models, it may be necessary to remove the fuel filter clamp (see chapter 4). Before starting operations, add brake fluid to the reservoir of the hydraulic clutch and brake drive, close the reservoir using the plug MKM-558-10.
3. Using a screwdriver, remove the retaining ring of the nipple on the hydraulic line docking station and disconnect the clutch hose (see resist. illustration). Gently squeezing the lock, put the retaining ring in place in the connector. The sealing ring must be replaced without fail. Seal open ends of tubing and hose immediately to minimize hydraulic fluid loss and prevent dirt from entering the system.
13.3. RKPP supply lines (on the example of manual transmission F17) - the arrows indicate the upper bolts of the manual transmission to the engine: 1. Connector wiring sensor-switch reversing lights; 2. Hydraulic line docking station; 3. Retaining ring; 4. Clutch feed line hose
Attention: Do not depress the clutch pedal with the hose disconnected!
4. Disconnect the electrical wiring from the sensor-switch (see illustration 13.3) reversing lights and release it from the intermediate clips on the gearbox housing.
Note: Depending on the configuration and type of manual transmission, other electrical wiring lines can be connected to or laid through it - they must also be disconnected.
5. On models equipped with an F23 manual transmission, disconnect the cable ends from the actuating lever on the gearbox (see Section 10), release the couplings from the holders and move the cables to the side.
6. Turn out 3 top bolts of fastening of transmission to the engine (see illustration 13.3).
Note: The location of both the upper and lower manual transmission mounting bolts may vary slightly on different models.
7. Hang the power unit using lifting equipment and remove the front suspension subframe (see chapter 10).
8. Turn out fixing bolts and remove the left support of the power unit (see chapter 2).
Note: Some models may require the removal of the support mounting bracket as well.
9. Gradually releasing the hoist / rigging chains, lower the power unit by approximately 5 cm - make sure that the communication lines laid from below are not pinched (hoses and wiring) and make sure that nothing prevents the removal of the box.
10. Disconnect the drive shafts from the gearbox (see chapter 8), while it is not necessary to remove them from the wheel hubs - just tie them with a wire to the load-bearing parts of the body on the bottom.
11. On models equipped with manual transmission F13, F17 and F17 +, loosen the bolt of the clamp securing the gear selector rod (see Section 9) and disconnect the drive link from the gearbox.
12. Turn out fixing bolts and separate a forward support and an arm of a back support of a suspension bracket of the power unit from a coupling dome.
13. Remove the lower bolts securing the gearbox to the oil pan and install the MKM-886-A tool on the gearbox (see resist. illustration), by jacking it up. Attach the box to the fixture.
13.13. Installing the KM-886-A fixture (on the example of manual transmission F17) - the arrows indicate the side bolts of the transmission to the engine (on manual transmission F23 - three bolts)
Note: Before using the device, carefully read the instructions for its use.
14. Turn out the lower lateral bolts (see illustration 13.13) fastening the box to the engine, disconnect the box from the cylinder block and carefully lower it on the jack.
15. In the absence of a special device, use the help of one or two assistants - unbolt the clutch dome from the engine block, move the gearbox and lower it by hand. Be careful, drain the gear oil if necessary.
16. Installation is made in an order, the return to an order of removal. Don't forget to bleed the clutch (see Section 4) and adjust the gearshift (see Section 9), and also check the transmission oil level (see Chapter 1 and Section 4).
