1. Disassemble in the order shown in the figure, referring to Disassembly Procedure.
2. Neatly arrange the removed parts to avoid confusing the similar parts.

WARNING: Using compressed air can cause dirt and other particles to fly out, causing injury to the eyes. Wear protective eye wear whenever using compressed air.

3. Clean the removed parts with cleaning solvent, and dry them with compressed air. Clean out all holes and passages with compressed air.
