Preparation
-Setting the O-ring- (continued)
4
Apply the grease (supplied).
Apply O-ring grease to clean the surface of the O-ring and replenish the oil.
≥
Apply a rice-grain size of grease (supplied) evenly to the O-ring with the tip of
your finger. (Do not apply the grease with paper or a cloth. The fibers from the
paper or cloth may stick to the O-ring.)
≥
If there is too much grease on the O-ring, dirt and dust will stick to it causing
water to leak in. Therefore, hold the O-ring between the balls of your finger and
thumb and gently remove excess grease.
≥
By applying the O-ring grease thinly and evenly, the O-ring fits flexibly to the
groove of the marine case and keeps it airtight.
≥
Use only the specified grease. If you use other types of grease, the
surface of the O-ring may be damaged causing water leakage.
5
Fit the O-ring evenly into the O-ring groove.
Check the following:
≥
There is no dirt sticking to the O-ring.
≥
The O-ring has not come out.
≥
The O-ring is not twisted.
≥
The O-ring is not stretched too much.
