INSPECTION & CLEANING

INSPECTION & CLEANING

A quick check of parts to be reused is carried out prior to cleaning.
This will ensure you do not clean obviously defective parts.

All metal parts are cleaned using white vinegar. The vinegar may
be diluted using water, however diluting usually only means a 
longer soak period before the parts are clean.

Only leave the parts in the vinegar bath until clean, do not leave in
the bath for prolonged periods. Eg; over night.

The parts must be rinsed in warm to hot fresh water after removal
from the acid bath, this helps to neutralise the acid. 
Blow dry with clean filtered air.

Metal parts must now be carefully inspected prior to refitting.
