DISASSEMBLY
General Instructions
1. Do not disassemble the tool any further than neces-
sary to replace or repair damaged parts.
2. Whenever grasping a tool or part in a vise, always use
leather-covered or copper-covered vice jaws to protect
the surface of the part and help prevent distortion.
This is particularly true of threaded members and
housings.
3. Do not remove any part which is a press fit in or on a
subassembly unless the removal of that part is neces-
sary for repairs or replacement.
4. Do not disassemble the tool unless you have a com-
plete set of gaskets and o-rings for replacement.

gearing with spindle unit. The tool can be disassembled for
repairs to each individual unit without disturbing the other
units. To separate the modules, proceed as follows:
