O-Rings
D
The O-ring requires periodic replacement. Replace the O-ring immedi-
ately if it is damaged, cracked, warped, or has lost its elasticity. O-rings
should be replaced at least once a year even if the unit has not been used;
use only O-rings designated for use in this unit. O-rings must be greased
before use and whenever the surface appears dry; failure to observe this
precaution could result in the O-ring cracking and water entering the unit.
D
Silicon Grease
Coating the O-ring with the supplied silicon grease prevents wear and
ensures that the holder rotates smoothly. Use only the supplied silicon
grease or optional WP-G1000 silicon grease; failure to observe this precau-
En
tion could result in O-ring becoming stretched or otherwise deformed.
Replacement O-rings and silicon grease are available for separate pur-
chase. Do not use grease in excessive amounts or apply using paper or
cloth, as this may cause dust or fi bers to adhere to the O-ring, making the
unit vulnerable to leaks.
