Installation Instructions for

TÜV Long Block Assembly

Safe Installation and Operation Rules:

Before installing your new S&S engine it is your responsibility

to read and follow the installation procedures in these instructions
and follow the basic rules below for your personal safety.

●

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain

conditions and toxic when inhaled. Do not smoke. Perform
installation in a well ventilated area away from open flames or
sparks.

●

If compressed air is used during installation, be particularly

careful. Compressed air and particles dislodged by compressed
air are harmful to eyes and body. Wear protective goggles, and
always direct air stream away from body parts such as hands and
eyes and other people near you.

●

When using solvents, degreasers and other chemicals during

cleaning and installation, read manufacturer’s instruction label for
proper use. Exposure of some chemicals to skin, eyes and/or
other body parts may be harmful. Many items are flammable and
present a fire hazard. Use in well ventilated area and wear
protective clothing when using them to avoid personal injury.

●

If motorcycle has been running, wait until engine and exhaust

pipes have cooled down to avoid getting burned before performing
any installation steps.

●

Before performing any installation steps disconnect battery to

eliminate potential sparks while working on electrical components.

●

Read instructions thoroughly and carefully so all procedures

are completely understood before performing any installation steps.
Contact S&S with any questions you may have if any steps are
unclear or any abnormalities occur during installation or operation
of motorcycle.

●

Consult an appropriate authorized H-D service manual for

correct disassembly and reassembly procedures for any parts other
than those outlined in these instructions.

●

Use good judgement when performing installation and

operating motorcycle. Good judgement begins with a clear head.
Don’t let alcohol, drugs or fatigue impair your judgement. Start
installation when you are fresh.

●

Be sure all federal, state and local laws are obeyed with the

installation.

●

Be sure all fuel lines, supply and overflow, are routed correctly

and fuel line clamps are in place and tightened. Lines must not
contact exhaust pipes or other extremely hot surfaces where they
could melt or leak and catch fire.

●

Before starting engine and riding motorcycle, be sure throttle

opens and closes smoothly. Turn handlebars to left and test throttle.
Then, turn bars to right and test throttle. To avoid possible loss of
control of motorcycle and potential personal injury to yourself or
others due to throttle sticking in open position, throttle must work
smoothly and return to a fully closed position when hand is removed
from throttle grip.

●

Motorcycle exhaust fumes are toxic and poisonous and must

not be breathed. Run motorcycle in a well ventilated area where
fumes can dissipate.
