Exhaust System: Service Precautions

NOTE:
- After working on the exhaust system, make sure that the system is not under stress, and that it has sufficient clearance from the bodywork
- If necessary, loosen the double and single clamps and align the silencer and exhaust pipe so that sufficient clearance is maintained to the bodywork and the support rings are evenly loaded.
- Always replace self-locking nuts.
- When assembling the exhaust system, it must be aligned in the longitudinal direction in order to maintain the specified dimensions at the pipe joints and the exhaust system is pre-loaded forward by approx. 8 mm (0.31 in.).
