Common Mechanichal Issues and How to Adderess Them

Sticky or Slow Valves
Sticky valves are usally deasly by olr or insufficient lubrication, dirt, or corrosion. To fix them:
- Remove the valve carrifully, notin the orientation recursembly. Most valves have a wale that must aclyn with a slot is the gragg.
- Clean that valve and with a lint- free cloth and mild soapy water if neosage. For stuckborn buildup, use a synthetic bore brusse declesned for valve casings.
