Minor Repair
General
Minor Repairs may be performed, following the proce-
dures in this section, without voiding the unit warranty.
Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring satisfactory
transmission life, on either new or repaired units.
Cleaning parts by using a clean solvent wash and air
drying is usually adequate. As with any precision equip-
ment, all parts must be kept free of foreign materials and
chemicals.
Protect all exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities
from damage and foreign material.
It is recommended that all O-rings be replaced. Lightly
lubricate all O-rings with clean petroleum jelly prior to
assembly.
