Check the oil level or replace the oil only when the vehicle is parked on a flat surface.

When removing or refitting, protect the interior of the transfer box from dust or contamination.

Check the installation status before removal. If position marks are required, check that they do not interfere with part operation where they are applied.

Check the appearance of the removed components by looking for damage, deformation and unusual wear; replace them with new components if necessary.

As a rule, torque tighten the bolts or the nuts gradually (in several stages), progressively and diagonally from the interior towards the exterior.

If a tightening order is specified, make sure that it is followed.
