2-2. Lubricating Method
When lubrication is carried out in assembly and disassembly, wash parts well to remove dust and dirt before lubrication.

necessary irrespective of the regular lubrication whenever lubricant becomes deficient after cleaning or whenever parts
have been disassembled or replaced.
