Cleaning & Inspection

  1. Clean all parts thoroughly in clean solvent, and blow dry with compressed air. Inspect all valves and plug bores for scoring. Check all fluid passages for obstructions.
  2. Inspect all mating surfaces, plugs, and valves for burrs and scoring. If necessary, use crocus cloth to polish valves and plugs.
  3. Inspect all springs for distortion. Check all valves and plugs for free movement in their respective bores. Valves and plugs, when dry, must fall free of their own weight within their respective bores.
CAUTION: Avoid rounding off sharp edges of valves and plugs with crocus cloth. These edges perform a cleaning action.
