Lubrication of Recoil Pistons.
During the process of exercising, when the cannon is out-of-
battery the last time, block the cannon with a 2-inch by 4-inch piece of wood about 8 inches
long to prevent it from returning to battery. Coat the exposed surfaces of the recoil piston rod or
cannon tube lightly with WTR grease. Remove the block and allow gun to return to battery.
f.

When exercising has been completed, return preservation to original condition
(figure 1-4) in accordance with SB 740-98-1.
