Clean Up

 

Assembly

 

 

 

 

 

 

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to prevent corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or degreaser, such as shown in Figure 5. For thor- ough cleaning, some parts must be removed.

For optimum performance, clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces. Avoid chlo- rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner that may damage painted surfac- es. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and can explode or cause fire if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use these products to clean the machinery.

Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled. Minimize your risk by only using these products in a well ventilated area.
