5.1. NOTE: To minimise the possibility of damage to the engine, it is advisable to remove the cylinder head from the engine to work on it.
Alternatively, remove the relevant injector and connect an air line via an appropriate adaptor to the aperture to ensure dirt and swarf do
not enter the combustion chamber as the procedure is carried out. Wear eye protection.

drill into centering sleeve, drill a pilot hole in the centre of the glow plug remains. Ensure that pilot drilling is at least 15mm deep. Clean
away the swarf using an air line. Note: If the electrode can be withdrawn in one piece, the aperture created may be used as a pilot.
If this is the case, proceed to 5.4.
5.3. Fit either 7mm (7) or 9mm (8) Drill Bit into the Drill Holding Adaptor (2) and lock in place with the grub screw, using the hex key (5).

thread.
5.5. Screw a Puller Adaptor Mandrel (3) into the thread that has just been cut into the glow plug. Remove the nut from the force screw in
the Puller Housing (1) and thread the force screw onto the mandrel. Slide the outer sleeve of the puller housing over the force screw.
