N O T I C E Do not spin bearing cones with compressed air.
4 After cleaning, thoroughly dry all metal parts with filtered,
dry compressed air.
5 It is recommended that all O-rings, backup rings, and wip-
ers be replaced at each overhaul. However, if necessary, O-
rings may be reused, but should be put back into the posi-
tion from which they were removed.
6 Wipe down O-rings, backup rings, wipers, or other rubber
parts with a clean dry cloth. Lubricate with a suitable O-ring
lubricant prior to installation.
Paint Removal
Disassemble components to the level required for repaint-
ing, then proceed as follows.
W A R N I N G Stripping solvents can be toxic and volatile. Use only
in well ventilated areas. Avoid physical contact with
solvent and do not inhale vapors. Keep solvent contain-
ers covered when not in use.
N O T I C E Before stripping parts, remove all fittings, O-rings,
nuts, bolts, washers, pistons, bearingcups, etc. Parts
must be totally immersed in solvent, to maximize clean-
ing.
1 Degrease part per degreasing paragraph.
2 Totally immerse part in paint removing solvent. Portions
not totally covered by solvent will begin to corrode.
N O T E Stripping agents are commercially available for remov-
ing topcoat and primer. Follow manufacturer's recom-
mendations for use and disposal of stripping solutions.
3 Remove part from solvent and rinse thoroughly with water
heated to 160° to 180°F (71° to 82° C). Flush solvent from
all cavities and threaded holes where entrapment might oc-
cur.
4 Thoroughly dry part with filtered, dry compressed air.
