Repeat this operation for the 4 sets of rings.

15)Fit the plates and the body rings (P/N 2706, Mark L) on the core (tighten moderately the screws P/N 2729), insert first the O.ring (P/N 1720) under the screw head,

18)To re-assemble follow the above instructions but in reverse order.

VI.3.4 – Replacing the PTFE sleeves

Follow the same procedure as for VI.3.3 until 14); after replacing the composite rings, remove the PTFE sleeves (P/N 7220) from the groove with a blunt pointed instrument. Clean and re-assemble the new part.
