Fundamental Procedures

DISASSEMBLY
If the disassembly procedure is complex, requiring many parts to be disassembled, all parts should be identified in a way that will not affect their performance or appearance for easy reassembly.





1. Inspection Of Parts
When removed, each part should be carefully inspected for malfunctioning, deformation, damage, and other problems.





2. Arrangement Of Parts
All disassembled parts should be carefully arranged for reassembly. Be sure to separate or otherwise identify the parts to be replaced from those that will be reused.





3. Cleaning Parts For Reuse
All parts to be reused should be carefully and thoroughly cleaned in the appropriate method.

WARNING: Using compressed air can cause dirt and other particles to fly out, causing injury to the eyes. Wear protective eye-wear whenever using compressed air.

REASSEMBLY
Standard values, such as tightening torques and adjustment values must be strictly observed in the reassembly of all parts. If removed, these parts should be replaced with new ones:
1. Oil seals
2. Gaskets
3. O-rings
4. Lock washers
5. Cotter pins
6. Nylon nuts





Depending On Location:
1. Sealant, gasket, or both should be applied to the specified location. When sealant is applied, parts should be installed before sealant hardens. Hardened sealant causes causes leaks.
2. Oil should be applied to the sliding surfaces of moving | parts.
3. Specified oil or grease should be applied at the prescribed locations (such as oil seals) before reassembly.





ADJUSTMENTS
Use gauges gauges and/or testers when making adjustments.





RUBBER PARTS AND TUBING
Prevent gasoline or oil from getting on rubber parts or tubing.





HOSE CLAMPS
When reinstalling, position the hose clamp in the original location on the hose, and squeeze the clamp lightly with large pliers to ensure a good fit.
