(ACDBE) PARTICIPATION AND GOODS AND SERVICES PROCUREMENT REPORTS

A. ACDBE Participation. The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Participation goal of

this contract is twenty percent (20%) of the Contractor’s Gross Receipts.

B. Change in Status of ACDBE. If during the Contract Term, the ACDBE’s status changes, causing it to become ineligible for ACDBE certification, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Authority of this change. The Contractor shall be required to make good faith efforts to continue to meet the 20% ACDBE goal and shall, therefore, partner or subcontract with another ACDBE that has been certified and approved by the Authority. Within ninety (90) days after the date the Contractor is no longer certified as a ACDBE by the VA-UCP, the Contractor shall submit the name of the proposed ACDBE substitute firm, certification documents, and a draft of the agreement (subcontract or joint venture agreement) between the proposed ACDBE and Contractor


shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer and the Department of Supplier Diversity (DSD). The proposed new ACDBE may not begin work under this Contract until it has been certified as An ACDBE by the VA-UCP and the VA-UCP has approved the substitution. The new ACDBE shall participate in the Contract operation with the goal of achieving at least 20% participation in the Contract, i.e., the new ACDBE’s participation is to be at least equivalent to twenty percent (20%) of gross receipts from the scheduled bus service concession.

1. The ACDBE goal is applicable to this Contract at all times during the Contract

Period, including the Option Period, if the Option Period is exercised. In unusual situations, consistent with the principles stated in Paragraph 4.9(1)-4.9(9) of the Authority’s Contracting Manual (Second Edition), the Authority may permit the Contractor to replace an ACDBE with another ACDBE. In the event of disapproval, the Contractor shall continue to maintain the current ACDBE until the Authority approves a substitution. If the substitution is approved, the Contractor shall replace the current ACDBE with another ACDBE that has been reviewed, certified and approved by the Authority’s DSD. The substitute ACDBE firm(s) shall participate at least to the same extent as the previous ACDBE participant. The Contractor shall monitor the certification status of any and all ACDBE firms included in this Contract, and shall ensure that their status as certified ACDBEs remains current.

C. Qualification as an ACDBE. To qualify as a ACDBE under 49 CFR Part 23 as

amended, a business concern must meet the applicable size standard and must be a small business (as defined by the Small Business Administration), which is: 1) at least fifty-one percent (51%) owned and controlled by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, or in the case of any publicly owned business, at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the stock is owned by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals; and 2) whose management and daily business operations are controlled by one or more of the socially and economically disadvantaged individuals who own it. "Socially and economically disadvantaged individuals" include:

1. Women;

2. Black Americans, which includes a person having origins in any of the Black

racial groups of Africa;

3. Hispanic Americans, which includes persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, Central, or South American, or other Spanish or Portuguese culture or origin, regardless of race;

4. Native Americans, which includes persons who are American Indians, Eskimos,

Aleuts, and Native Hawaiians;

5. Asian-Pacific Americans, which includes persons whose origins are from Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Japan, China,


Taiwan, Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia (Kampuchea), the Philippines, Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands (Republic of Palau), Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Macao, Hong Kong, Fiji, Tonga, Kiribati, Tuvalu, or Nauru; and

6. Subcontinent Asian-Indian Americans, which includes persons whose origins are

from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, the Maldives Islands, or Nepal.

The VA-UCP will generally presume that business owners who fall into one of these groups are socially and economically disadvantaged. Their disadvantaged status will not generally be investigated unless a third-party challenge is made. Other individuals may be found to be socially and economically disadvantaged on a case-by-case basis. For example, a disabled Vietnam veteran, an Appalachian white male, or another person may claim to be disadvantaged. If such individual requests that his or her firm be certified as ACDBE, the VA-UCP, as part of the certification process, will determine whether the individual is socially and economically disadvantaged under the criteria in 49 CFR Part 23 and 26. These owners must demonstrate that their disadvantaged status arose from individual circumstances, rather than by virtue of membership in a group.

In order to be considered an ACDBE, a business concern must first be certified by the VA-UCP. ACDBE certifications by other certifying agencies may be granted reciprocity in some cases.

D. ACDBE Compliance.

1. The Authority will conduct post-award compliance reviews to ensure that the ACDBE participation is occurring in accordance with the proposal and any agreements between the ACDBE and the Contractor approved by the Authority in accordance with 49 CFR Part 23.

2. The Contractor shall provide true and accurate monthly reports of the ACDBE

participation under this Contract using the “Monthly Report Form- ACDBE Concessions Program” as shown on Exhibit D. This report is to be submitted each month with the Contractor’s Monthly Certified Statement.

3. Failure to provide ACDBE participation in accordance with this Contract may be

considered a material breach of the Contract and the Authority may utilize all remedies authorized by the Contract, including, but not limited to, termination of the Contract for default.

E. Goods and Services Expenditure Report. The Contractor shall each month

concurrently with its Monthly Certified Statement, submit a report of all purchasing and subcontracting for goods and services (i.e. supplies, printing, janitorial, snow removal, etc.) from all vendors and subcontractors.


ARTICLE 7. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION A. Monthly Certified Statement. By no later than the twentieth (20th) day of the following

month, or the first business day after the twentieth (20th) if it falls on a weekend or holiday, the Contractor shall provide to the Authority a Monthly Certified Statement showing its Gross Receipts, expenses, and the number of passengers it carried to and from the Airport under the Contract for the preceding month using the form shown in Exhibit C (Monthly Certified Statement). At any time during this Contract, the Authority may revise the Monthly Certified Statement form shown in Exhibit C of this Contract and request further activity information from the Contractor, including a level of detail equivalent to the Contractor's own general ledger delineations. The Statement shall be certified as true, accurate, and complete by an authorized representative of the Contractor. The Contracting Officer must approve any changes to the format of the Monthly Certified Statement in advance in writing. The Monthly Certified Statement shall be forwarded to the Authority at the addresses below:

Certified Statement and Supporting Documentation Contracting Officer MA-230 Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority P.O. Box 17045 Washington Dulles International Airport Washington, DC 20041 Copy of Certified Statement Accounting – Revenues and Collections Manager, MA 22-A Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority 1 Aviation Circle Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport

Washington, DC 20001 Beginning with the first month of each Contract Year, the Contractor shall retain an

“Annual Service Fee” not to exceed Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000) annually from the Contractor’s Annual Net Revenue (defined as the difference between Contractor’s Annual Gross Receipts and Allowable Expenses incurred by Contractor during a Contract Year). The Contractor shall continue to retain Annual Net Revenue each month thereafter until such time as a total of $80,000 has been retained by the Contractor to satisfy the Annual Service Fee provision or the Contract Year ends (whichever event occurs first). For any partial months, or any Contract Year less than twelve (12) calendar months, the Annual Service Fee shall be pro-rated. If additional Annual Net Revenue remains during any Contract Year after the Contractor fully retains its Annual Service Fee (or the prorated Annual Service Fee amount), the Contractor shall immediately begin remitting the next Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000) in Net Revenue to the Authority as an “Annual Concession Fee.” Payments of the Annual Concession Fee from the


Contractor to the Authority shall occur monthly until such time as a total of $80,000 has been remitted by the Contractor to the Authority to satisfy the Annual Concession Fee requirement or the Contract Year ends (whichever event occurs first). If additional Annual Net Revenue remains during any Contract Year after the Contractor has retained its Annual Service Fee of Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000) and remitted to the Authority the Annual Concession Fee of Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000), the remaining Annual Net Revenue will be divided between the Contractor (“Additional Annual Service Fee”) and the Authority (“Additional Annual Concession Fee”) for the remainder of the Contract Year at the following percentages:

Contractor Percentage, (Additional Annual Service Fee): XX% Authority Percentage, (Additional Annual Concession Fee): XX%

The above Annual Net Revenue split shall be in effect through the end of the Contract Year. The Contractor shall remit the Additional Annual Concession Fee, if due, without invoice, with each submission of the Monthly Certified Statement. The Annual Concession Fee shall be deemed delinquent if payment is not received by the twentieth (20th) calendar day of the month following the month being reported by the Contractor. In addition to the above Annual Concession Fee and Additional Annual Concession Fee, the Contractor shall pay to the Authority the Maintenance Fixed Costs totaling Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) per month and Additional Maintenance Costs reported by the Authority. The Maintenance Fixed Costs and Additional Maintenance Costs shall be in addition to the Annual Concession Fee and Additional Annual Concession Fee calculated for each month, and shall be remitted by no later than the 20th of each month following the month in which they were incurred. Monthly payments by the Contractor payable on or before the 20th of each month shall be calculated as follows: 1. Annual Concession Fee; plus 2. Additional Annual Concession Fee; plus 3. Authority Fuel Cost for the preceding month in the amount reported by the

Authority; plus 4. Maintenance Fixed Costs for the preceding month in the amount of Five

Thousand Dollars ($5,000); plus 5. Additional Maintenance Costs for the preceding month in the amount

reported by the Authority.

B. Remittances. All payments shall be remitted by electronic funds transfer to the Authority’s designated bank account. The Contractor shall remit payment for any and all


invoices received from the Authority within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of invoice. If the Contractor fails to make a payment to the Authority when due, late charges may be assessed as provided in Paragraph F of this Article.

C. Utilities. The Authority shall provide reasonable amounts of electricity, heating, and

cooling to the Contractor’s Assigned Premises and Facilities. The Contractor shall be responsible for all telephone services required for this Contract.

D. Annual Certified Statement. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each

contract year, the contractor shall provide:

1. A Schedule of Gross Receipts, Expenses, and Net Revenue in the same format shown in Exhibit C.

The Contractor shall have the Schedule of Gross Receipts, Expenses, and Net Revenue

audited by an independent CPA and provide the auditor’s opinion and report stating that the statements were prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Contract including the definition of Gross Receipts and Allowable Expenses set forth in Article 7. I. and J. of this Contract. The audit must be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Authority reserves the right to reject the selected independent CPA if the independent CPA does not have the appropriate professional standing.

E. Annual Reconciliation Statement. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each

Contract Year, the Contractor, at its own cost and expense, shall include with its Annual Certified Statement a reconciliation of all fees previously paid to the Authority during the Contract Year and provide to the Authority schedules of the Annual Gross Receipts and the calculations of the Annual Concession Fees and Additional Concession Fees due for the Contract Year.

1. Additional Payment if Fees Underpaid. If the Fee schedules provided by the

Contractor to the Authority with respect to any Contract Year indicate that the amount of the Fees which the Contractor actually paid to the Authority with respect to such Contract Year was less than the amount of the Annual Fee due and owing for such Contract Year under the terms of this Contract, then the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Authority at the same time it provides the Annual Statement to the Authority.

2. Credit if Fees Overpaid. If the Fee schedules provided by the Contractor to the Authority with respect to any Contract Year indicate that the amount of the Fees which the Contractor actually paid to the Authority with respect to such Contract Year was greater than the amount of the Annual Fee due and owing for that Contract Year under the terms of this Contract, then the amount of such excess shall, at the option of the Authority, either be paid in lump sum within a thirty (30) day period or credited to the fees next due and owing from the Contractor to


the Authority, unless the Contract Term has expired, in which event such amount shall be promptly refunded by the Authority to the Contractor. The Contractor shall not assume any credit and shall not apply any credit to fees due to the Authority until the Contractor receives written approval from the Authority for such credit.

F. Interest, Penalties and Late Charges. Without waiving any other right of action

available to the Authority, in the event of default in payment of charges and fees hereunder, if the Contractor fails to make a payment when due late charges will be assessed from the date payment was due. Late charges may consist of interest and penalties.

The interest rate shall be at the rate per annum which is four percent (4%) higher than the

"prime rate" published in The Wall Street Journal on the date such payment was due.

In addition to interest, monthly penalty charges at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum (or as established periodically) of the amount due will be assessed on the unpaid portion of accounts more than thirty (30) days past due.

G. Other Charges. The Contractor shall pay all fees, assessments, taxes and other charges

levied under federal, state, and local statutes and ordinances as are applicable to the services to be conducted under the Contract.

H. Definition of Gross Receipts. The term "Gross Receipts" as used herein shall mean the

total amount of all amounts received or realized by, or accruing to the Contractor or on behalf of the Contractor from passengers for services provided by the Contractor under this Contract, including bus ticket fares and any other fees charged to these passengers, regardless of where or by whom the payment is made. The Contractor shall not allocate Airport Gross Receipts to any other location. Losses due to "bad" checks or credit cards are the responsibility of the Contractor and shall not be deducted from Gross Receipts. All revenue shall be deemed to be received at the time of determination of the amount due the Contractor for each transaction, whether for cash or credit, and not at the time of billing or payment.

The term "Gross Receipts" shall not include:

1. Amounts of any federal, state, or municipal sales or similar taxes collected by the

Contractor provided these amounts are separately stated on the invoice or ticket provided to the passenger;

2. Sums received by the Contractor for damage to Contractor’s vehicles, or the

Contractor's property or Premises and Facilities, or for loss, conversion, or abandonment of Contractor’s vehicles, provided, however, if such sums received by the Contractor exceed the Contractor’s actual cost of repair or replacement of the vehicle or property, the excess sum shall be considered Gross Receipts; and


3. Sums received by reason of the Contractor's disposal of equipment, operating facilities, or personal property.

I. Definition of Allowable Expenses. The term “Allowable Expenses” as used herein shall

1. SAFETY

1.1. Safety ProceduresThis section of the service manual con-tains procedures which require themechanics to strictly observe safety proce-dures in order to ensure personal andequipment safety.

Always ensure that the vehicle is appropri-ately hoisted and blocked for procedureswhich require elevating the vehicle. Beaware of the limitations of the blockingequipment, and always ensure that the jar-ring and shaking created by componentremoval and installation procedures doesnot overload the blocks, or cause the vehi-cle to become unstable.

Certain procedures may require the vehi-cle be operated in an elevated position inorder to accurately troubleshoot and diag-nose a problem. lf the vehicle must be run-ning while elevated, become familiar withthe repair area prior to starting the engine.Take special care in noting areas which willbecome hot, electrically energized, andareas where moving and rotating compo-nents are located. Limit the work in theseareas as personal and equipment safety isat risk.

For procedures which involve air lines,ensure the line is safely depressurizedprior to disconnecting. Disconnecting pres-surized lines will cause solid particlesdeposited in the line to be uncontrollablypropelled, and will also cause the hoseend to whip randomly as the air escapes.

During electrical diagnosis procedures anunderstanding of the vehicle's electric cir-cuits is important to anticipate the resultsof connecting test equipment. During com-ponent removal or installation, ensure theBattery Disconnect switch is in the OFFposition.

Failure to follow this procedure may resultin personal injury or component failure.

Observe the following procedures involvinghydraulic line removal.

Procedures

Hydraulic fluid is corrosive and should notbe exposed to skin for extensive periods oftime.

Wear eye protection at all times.

Pressurized lines should not be discon-nected untilthe pressure is safely and con-trollably released.

AcnunoruFollow all proper safety precautionsregarding spray painting. Use a filteringmask with the proper filter cartridgesfor this type of paint. Wear eye protec-tion and proper protective clothing. Thepaint booth or work area must be prop-erly ventilated, with filtered exhaustfans removing fumes and over spray.Air make-up induction fans should alsobe used to supply fresh air to the workarea. The painting area should be a safedistance from any source of flame,spark or other means of combustion.Atomized paint, thinner, cleaner andsolvent fumes are highly volatile withan extremely low flashpoint that cancause explosive combustion. DO NOTsmoke or permit anyone else to smokein or near the painting area.

lnsulation Foam Safety

lnsulation foam is installed in thespaces of the frame tubing, between thevehicle inner and outer wall panels. Thelnsulation Foam is extremely combusti-bIe. KEEP OPEN FLAMES AND FLAMESOURCES AWAY FROM THE INSULA.TION FOAM!

Before pedorming any work or repairsrequiring use of an open flame such as:welding, brazing, acetylene torch cutting orgrinding, ensure that the lnsulation Foamis either removed from the area beingrepaired, or is properly shielded from theopen flame.

2.8.9. Air Filter Restriction lndicatorlnspection

lnspect the air filter restriction indicatorevery 6,000 miles (9,600 km), 250 hours,or 3 months, whichever occurs first. Locatethe restriction indicator in the engine com-partment and refer to the scale on the indi-cator that is calibrated in inches of water.Replace the air filter element if the readingexceeds 18" H2O.

The service life of an air filter element isaffected by several factors including oper-ating environment, hours of operation, andtotal time in service. The requirement forair filter element replacement is deter-mined by monitoring the reading on the Fil-ter Minder@ air filter gauge. This gaugemonitors air restriction downstream of theair cleaner assembly. See "Fig. PM-9: AirFilter Restriction lndicator" on page 21.

The air filter gauge is calibrated in inchesof water on one side and millimeters ofwater on the opposite side. The gauge willregister and retain the highest air restric-tion reading experienced during operation.Maximum air restriction readings will beobtained typically during full throüle, fullload operation.

Air filter element replacement is requiredwhen the filter media has trapped approxi-mately B0% of its load carrying capacity.

This capacity equates to an air filter gaugereading of 18 to 20 inches of water. The airfilter element is considered to havereached its maximum service life at thispoint and must be replaced. Refer to2.8.10. "Air Filter Replacement" onpage 22 in this section for replacementprocedure.

2.8.10. Air Filter Replacement

The air filter housing assembly includes aprimary and safety element. The primaryelement provides engine protection duringoperation and the safety element isdesigned to prevent contaminates fromentering the induction system during ser-vicing. The safety element is located withinthe filter housing, immediately downstreamof the primary element. See "Fig. PM-'10:Air Filter Elements" on page 22.

The replacement interval for the primaryelement is determined by the filter restric-tion indicator reading. Replace the primaryelement when the gauge reading is

between 18 to 20 inches of water. Thesafety element should be replaced everythird primary element change or wheneverthe surface of the safety element hasbecome contaminated.

IgNOTE:

There is no need to remove and visuallyinspect the air filter element if the indicatorreading is less than 18" H2O. Replacingthe air filter element at 18" HrO. will maxi-mize the service life of the filter and mini-mize any risk associated with excessivehandling of the air filter.

2.8.1O.1.Removal

1. Open the air filter access door located onthe rear curbside corner of the vehicle.

Z\caur¡o¡¡The air filter housing is mounted withthe clean air outlet pointing downwardand care must be used when perform-ing an element replacement to avoidcontaminating the induction systemduring servicing.

Remove the air filter housing cover byreleasing the four over-center latcheslocated on both sides near the center ofthe body. Remove the cover by pullingstraight out from the housing.

Using the plastic handle on the primaryelement gently lift up on the element toloosen the gasket seal, which will tilt theelement to an approximate 5 degree angle,Carefully remove the primary element fromhousing.

Carefully clean out all contaminates fromthe housing and sealing surfaces with adamp cloth before servicing the safety ele-ment.

AcsulotuThe lower elbow located at the base ofthe vertical air intake pipe must be dis-connected before removing the safetyfilter. Removal of the safety filter maydislodge dirt or other contaminants thatcould enter the air intake system.

lf the safety element has to be replaceduse the plastic handle on the face of thesafety element. Pull the element towardsthe center of the housing and carefullyremove it from the housing to avoid con-taminates from entering the induction sys-tem.

[gNOTE:lf new elements are not going to beinstalled immediately, temporarily coverthe outlet tube to prevent contaminantsfrom entering the air intake system.

6. Carefully wipe out the safety seal surfacein the housing with a damp cloth.

2.8.10.2.lnspection

1. lnspect the rubber seal on air filter housingaccess door (U-shaped cover with fourover-center latches). Replace the accessdoor if the seal is deteriorated or damaged.Refer to your New Flyer Parts Manual forpart number of access door.

2. lnspect the clamped connections at theinlet and outlet of the air filter housing.There should be no evidence of bulged ordeformed hoses.

ACAUTIONDO NOT exceed 40 in-lbs torque on thehose clamps. Over-tightening theclamps will deform the plastic air filterhousing inleVoutlets.

Use a bright light to inspect the interior ofthe air filter housing and check for any evi-dence of distortion or cracking on the inletand outlet clamped connections. Replaceair filter housing if cracked or damaged.Refer to Section 4 of this manual forreplacement procedu re.

a. Line runs across another line, compo-nent, or vehicle structure without beingproperly clamped.

b. Line is improperly held by clamp. Selectproper clamp size or tighten clamp asnecessary. Clamp must fit snugly online without causing restriction.

c. Ensure band clamps (typically used toattach rubber hose to metal tubing) aretight.

2. lnspect all flexible lines and hoses forproper routing.

a. Ensure lines are not routed in closeproximity to hot zones such as the tur-bocharger, engine exhaust, auxiliarycoolant heater etc. Provide additionalclamps or reposition the existing 3'

clamps to obtain the required clearance(minimum 1"). Use brackets or spacers,if necessary, to obtain the requiredclearance. Provide protective shieldingin situations where the optimum clear-ance cannot be achieved.

Z\caunoruDO NOT clamp or cable tie fuel lines toelectrical cables/harnesses. Maintain aminimum clearance o1112" between fuellines and electrical cables/harnesses.DO NOT use cable ties on textile orsteel braided lines.

b. Ensure lines do not run across anotherline, component, or vehicle structurewithout being properly clamped.

IgNOTE:It is permissible to cable tie synflex air lineswith synflex fuel lines.

c. Ensure lines meet the minimum bendradius requirements. Provide a mini-mum bend radius of six times the diam-eter of the line. Reposition line or

replace with a line of the proper lengthif necessary.

Ensure flexible lines are routed andclamped so as to provide minimal slackwithout being taut. Provide additionalslack in lines where there could be rela-tive movement between the joined loca-tions. Do not space clamps less than 12inches apart.

Provide cushioned loop clamps(P-clamps) or plastic split-block styleclamps in locations where vibration orroad shock may be transmitted to theline. Plastic split-block style clamps aretypically used with large diameter linesonly.

Acnur¡on¡Damage to the internal wire bundle canoccrlr if the wire loom is clamped to anobject subject to excessive vibration.The vibrations can transmit through thecushioned clamp and create relativemovement between the internal wirebundle and the corrugated surface ofthe wire loom, resulting in damage tothe wire insulation over a period oftime. Use an alternative clampingmethod that will isolate the vibration orrelocate the wire harness and clamp ata different location.

c. Ensure cables/harnesses are securedwith P-clamps wherever practical. Har-nesses should be clamped no moreThan 24 inches apart, where possible.Use cable ties to secure any portion ofa harness bundle that cannot besecured within the P-clamps. Maintainthe same relationship betweenclamped and unclamped wire harness

looms throughout the entire run of thewire bundle. Use cable ties at 12" inter-vals. Ensure cable ties are not over-tightened or supporting too muchweight so as to cut into the wire loom.

Ensure that cable ties are not usedwithin four inches of the connector. Pro-vide strain relief or otherwise allowsome flexion at the terminal connector.It is acceptable, however, to cable tiethe terminal connector body itself whenit is running parallel with another har-NESS.

The excessive length of a harness mayrequire that it be looped. Ensure thatthe harness is looped in an appropriatearea and that the minimum bend radiusis observed. Provide a minimum bendradius of six times the diameter of theharness.

DO NOT open the high pressure fuelsystem with the engine running. Highpressure fuel spray can cause seriousinjury or death.

ACnurtorrlDO NOT attempt to pre-fill the second-ary filter element pr¡or to starting theengine. Filling the filter through thecenter opening will allow a certainamount of fuel to bypass the 5 micronfilter media within the filter, therebyallowing unfiltered fuel into the fuelsystem and possibly leading to enginefuel pump or injector damage.

Always prime the fuel system prior to start-ing the engine to avoid excessive crankingintervals, erratic engine operation, or set-ting engine fault codes. Proceed as fol-lows:

Locate the engine run switch in the enginecompartment and set the switch to theREAR position.

Allow the engine lift pump to cycle forapproximately 30 seconds before it auto-matically shuts off.

Reset the run switch from REAR to OFFand then back to REAR position again.The lift pump should cycle for another 30seconds. Repeat this process three or fourtimes to allow purging all the air from thefuelfilter and lines.

km), whichever occurs first if operatingunder less severe conditions. Lubricate theupper bearing as follows:

caurtoruDO NOT over-pressurize the bearingcavity when greasing the bearing, asthis could cause the sealing washer,located below the circlip, to bulge out-ward. Replace sealing washer if dis-torted.

I9NOTE:The steering knuckle is fitted with upperand lower dust caps from the factory. Theupper dust cap should be removed anddiscarded to allow for access to the uppergrease fitting for scheduled lubrication.lnstallation of an angled grease fitting willallow tor easier access.

Remove the protective plastic cap from theupper grease fitting and purge-lubricatethe bearing. Use only Renolit LX-OTP-2lubricant.

I€NOTE:To aid purging of old grease, ensure steer-ing knuckle and grease are at room tem-perature. Rotate the steering knuckle leftand right while applying grease so that theold grease can escape.

Clean any excess grease from the steeringknuckle joint as well as the area above thesealing washer.

lnstall protective plastic cap on grease fit-ting.

Use a preservation wax, such as Dinitrol4942 or equivalent, to fill the area abovethe sealing washer on the upper bearing.This wax will act as a barrier and preventany liquid from accumulating on the seal-ing washer.

IgNOTE:The lower bearing is not prone to moistureingress or grease wash-out and thereforedoes not need to be greased on a regularbasis. The lower bearing requires greasingonly if being replaced.
