posed of a spring, rod and ball.

CLEANING AND INSPECTING
Thoroughly wash all metal components with cleaning solvent
and dry them with compressed air.
Arrange all components on a clean sheet of paper.

Do not lay PTT components out on a rag, as dirt or lint may be
transferred to these items which may cause possible system
operating problems.
Inspect tilt rod, replace if damaged or bent.
Inspect the surface of tilt rod for scores, grooves or roughness.
Slight roughness may be removed with fine emery paper.
A badly scored or grooved rod must be replaced.
