injury.

personal injury.

NOTICE:Make sure that the pipe threads are clean, and that you apply thread sealant to the
plugs and fittings. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage or decreased performance.

NOTICE:Use an induction heater that heats as well as demagnetizes the bearings when you
install bearings. Failure to do so may result in decreased performance.
