KEEWAY SERVICE GUIDELINES
1.
Use only genuine KEEWAY parts, and use proper lubricants where
specified.
2.
Use only the proper tools for the task at hand.
3.
Please be sure to replace all washers, seals, o-rings, cotter pins, etc.
4.
Please note that all fasteners are metric.
5.
When reassembling fasteners, please snug nuts and bolts in a circular
pattern, and torque to spec in a diagonal, star pattern (if applicable).
6.
Upon completion of assembly, double check fastener tension (torque)
and ensure free movement of parts.
7.
Parts and fasteners should be free of debris prior to measurement.
Upon assembly, use lubricant, or thread lock as needed.
8.
When metal parts are removed, and need to be stored for extended
periods, please apply a heavy coat of lubricant to minimize rust and debris
accumulation.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
A loose or dangling cable is a tremendous hazard. Ensure fasteners are in place and
secure.
Never leave wire exposed, especially near any metal surface, including nuts and
bolts.
Only lay wire in straight, relaxed manner. Never stretch, twist, or sharply bend wire
or electrical connectors, or loss of conductivity will occur.
Keep wires away from heat sources and moving parts/rotating assemblies to avoid
electrical damage.
Inspect pigtails and connectors before connecting to wire to ensure a clean, firm
contact.
When making repairs to wires and connectors, please be sure to wrap the new joint
in heat-shrink tubing. This will reinforce the connection and protect it from the
elements.
