6.3 Pre-assembly inspections
Guidelines
Before you assemble the pump parts, make sure you follow these guidelines:
• Inspect the pump parts according to the information in these pre-assembly topics
before you reassemble your pump. Replace any part that does not meet the required
criteria.
• Make sure that the parts are clean. Clean the pump parts in solvent in order to remove
oil, grease, and dirt.
NOTICE:
Protect machined surfaces while you clean the parts. Failure to do so may result in
equipment damage.
