NOTE
Refers to important information, and is placed in italic type. It
is recommended that you take special notice of these items.
Proper service and repair is important for the safe, reliable
operation of all mechanical products. The service procedures
recommended and described in this manual are effective
methods for performing service operations.
Always wear proper eye protection when using hammers,
arbor or hydraulic presses, gear pullers, spring com-
pressors, slide hammers and similar tools. Flying parts
could result in death or serious injury. (00496b)
Some of these service operations require the use of tools
specially designed for the purpose. These special tools should
be used when and as recommended. It is important to note
that some warnings against the use of specific service methods,
which could damage the motorcycle or render it unsafe, are
stated in this manual. However, remember that these warnings
are not all-inclusive. Inadequate safety precautions could result
in death or serious injury.
Since Harley-Davidson could not possibly know, evaluate or
advise the service trade of all possible ways in which service
might be performed, or of the possible hazardous con-
sequences of each method, we have not undertaken any such
broad evaluation. Accordingly, anyone who uses a service
procedure or tool which is not recommended by Harley-Dav-
idson must first thoroughly satisfy himself that neither his nor
the operator's safety will be jeopardized as a result. Failure to
do so could result in death or serious injury.
PRODUCT REFERENCES

Failure to follow warnings and directions can result in

When reference is made in this manual to a specific brand
name product, tool or instrument, an equivalent product, tool
or instrument may be substituted.
