6) Rotating parts should be coated with oil prior to
assembly.
7) All disassembled parts, if to be reused, should
be reinstalled in the original positions and direc-
tions.8) Gaskets, lock washers and lock nut must be re-
placed with new ones.
9) Liquid gasket should be used where specified to
prevent leakage.
