GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS (Contd)
DISASSEMBLY
Each appropriate WP will contain specific instructions for disassembly of the components.
Take care in handling parts during disassembly. Nicks, scratches, or other damage caused by careless
handling may cause premature failure of equipment.
Matched, married, or mated items (examples: bearings and races, covers and housings, and some gear
sets) should be fastened together or otherwise identified as parts being processed together. If one part fails
inspection, both parts must be replaced as a set.
CLEANING
CAUTION
Block all ports and mask machined surfaces of aluminum castings
before using the following cleaning procedures. Failure to comply
may result in damage to equipment.
Do not separate or intermix matched, married, or mated parts
during cleaning operations. Refer to Disassembly above.
For authorized cleaning materials, refer to TM 9-247, Materials Used for Cleaning, Preserving, Abrading,
and Cementing.
Remove all rust and surface scale using a wire brush, sand blast, grit blast, or other effective methods in
accordance with standard procedures.
