away from user and other personnel in the area. To
prevent injury, user must wear protective goggles or
face shield when using compressed air.

plastic, or synthetic materials. Washing oil seals,
electrical cables and flexible hoses with dry cleaning
solvents or mineral spirits will cause serious damage
or destroy the material.
NOTE
Wash electrical cables and flexible hose with water and
mild soap solution and wipe dry. Oil seals are
generally damaged during removal, so cleaning will not
be necessary since new seals will be used in assembly.
