DESCRIPTION

When you remove the change rod boot for repair, be sure to install it with the air breather hole directed downward.

This is to prevent water or mud from collecting inside the boot through the air breather hole. If water or mud does come into the boot area, it will cause corrosion on the change rod and as a result, the oil seal will be damaged, which may cause oil leakage.
