When to change the element, change housing and
square ring with new replacements as well.

Check if there is any damage found on the
thread portion of the element head or the ditch
portion of square ring seal.
If there is any dirt or damage on them, it may
cause leakage, so dress it with tool like a fine
file.

) on the thread portion and
inner surface of gasket part of the element.

with both hands and push it down so that the
end plate of the element adheres to the head.
At this time, be careful not to allow the gasket
slip out from the head.

tened by turning it at 1/5 round or more.
