Precautions
Precaution for Housing and Bracket
Do not break or cut bonding wires, as they perform an important function in the prevention of galvanic corrosion or build up of static charges. Replace any damaged wire.
• When disassembling housing and bracket, inspect mountings and bolts for damage and wear. Replace if necessary.
• Check the condition of the zinc anodes on lower section of mid unit. Replace if necessary.
