IMPORTANT
During this oper ation, be sure to:
-refrain from smoking or bringing red hot objects
close to the working area,
-be careful of fuel splashes when disconnecting the
union.
IMPORTANT
Wear leaktight gloves (Nitrile type) for this opera-
tion.
WARNING
To avoid any corrosion or damage, protect the
areas on which fuel is likely to run.
WARNING
To prevent impurities from entering the circuit, plugs
must be fitted to the openings of all the fuel circuit
components exposed to the open air.

WARNING
To ensure proper sealing, the gasket surfaces
must be clean, dry and not greasy (avoid any fin-
ger mar ks).
WARNING
Do not scrape the joint faces of the aluminium,
any damage caused to the joint face will result in
a risk of leaks.
