Tl. i s is accomplished by removing the four (4) screws holding the gear box to the handle casting. Clean the gear housing and the gear with an organic solvent. If the gear on inspection is found to have excessively worn edges, it must be replaced. Inspection will be made ~at this time to check for any grooving or wear in the

p. e a r case.

If the gear wheet 1, n worn, the gear housing will also be worn. (c) Source and Drtve CabLc: The source and drive cable shall be checked for wear and damage. Wear and. damage will be indicated by increased resistance during operation. Damage can bo p re ven ted by asnuring that the control assembly is coiled and u n c o l t e.1 properly and protocto.1 n y.n t n n t ph y-i t en i, nh uno when in use.

It a clip is found to be flattened, it must be removed and replaced since the accumulation of pressures.due to deformed clips will cause the control unit to work with resistance. (c) Cable and Disconnect: Remove the cable from the conduit ~ assembiy.and clean with a hydrocarbon solvent. The cable shall not be lubricated with oil after cleaning. If lubricating is f~ o u n d to be necessary.after prolonged uSe, a.l i g h t dusting with a microtine g r a p h'i t e can be used.
