Do not allow dirt to enter the system. Before
disconnecting any part of the system, thoroughly
clean around the connection. When a component has
been disconnected, always fit protective caps and
plugs to prevent dirt ingress.
Failure to follow these instructions will lead to dirt
entering the system. Dirt in the system will seriously
damage the systems components and could be
expensive to repair.
