DURES

1. Remove all dirt, mud, dust and foreign mate-

2. Use proper tools and cleaning equipment.

Refer to the “SPECIAL TOOLS” section.

3. When disassembling the machine, always

keep mated parts together. This includes

have been “mated” through normal wear.

Mated parts must always be reused or re-

placed as an assembly.

and place them in trays in the order of disas-

sembly. This will speed up assembly and al-

low for the correct installation of all parts.

5. Keep all parts away from any source of fire.
