NOTICE Metal particles in the lube oil may indicate a serious condition that requires immediate attention.
If metal particles are found in the grid of the detector, do not start the engine until the source of the particles is found and the condition is corrected. Failure to do so could cause severe damage to the engine.
- If metal particles are found, determine the source of the particles.
- Inspect the O-ring seals. If a seal is cut, scratched, or cracked, obtain a new seal for assembly.
- Clean the grid with nonflammable solvent. Install the clean, dry grid and the O-ring seal for the grid.
- Install cover (2) and the O-ring seal for the cover.
