JACKING AND BLOCKING UP
GENERAL
The car has a rigid self-supporting body and this lacks
the neutral application points for a jack that a girder
chassis provides. There are however two special engagement recesses on each side designed to fit the jack supplied with the car's tool kit; these are intended for use
during wheel changing, etc. The engine compartment
floor is also reinforced immediately under the cross member that supports the engine to provide an application
point for the workshop jack. A similar reinforced lifting
point is provided underneath the floor at the back behind
the fuel tank. As most workshop jacks have a forked lifting head, it is advisable to lay a wooden block of suitable
size across the fork to avoid damaging the floor of the car.
For some jobs it is necessary to raise the front or rear end
of the car. In such cases the jack engagement recesses under the sills should be utilized.
A neat and tidy workshop is essential for the proper servicing of vehicles. Some parts of the car need to be treated with special care and effectively protected against dirt
and contamination while work is in progress. For the mechanic who may be new to the job should the following
points may be of help:
1. Protect fenders and other paintwork with suitable coverings.
2. Lay protective coverings over the seats and upholstery
to save them from spots of oil and dirt.
3. Clean the insides of fenders and the space round the
rear axle thoroughly before starting to work on wheel
hubs and axles. This makes the job easier and prevents
grit and dirt from getting into bearings and other susceptible parts.
4. Before unscrewing spark plugs, clean the recess round
the plug thoroughly.
5. Every job must have its proper place. It is bad practice,
for example, to disassemble an engine or transmission
on a bench which is also used for filing, etc. or where
filing is done in the immediate neighbourhood.
SAAB
THREAD SYSTEM AND WRENCH SIZES
The standard thread system used in Saab cars is mainly
the metric thread system ("M") and the width across
flats is also measured in mm.
However, UNF and UNC threads with dimensions in
inches are to be found in some components.
