Before using this chapter to remove and/or replace a component or assembly, always make sure that you have performed the relevant service test for each component as described in 4, Service Tests and Utilities. If the test passes you will not need to replace the component.
NOTE
NOTE
To install a component perform the removal procedures in reverse order unless a specific installation procedure is provided.
After removing and/or replacing a component, the relative procedure will state whether any calibrations and/or tests are required (Chapter 5, Service Calibrations).
