1. Use a stiff bristle brush to remove all debris, rust, and
scale from O.D. of liners, under liner flange, and in
O-ring packing areas. Make certain there are no nicks
or burrs in areas where packings will seat.

commercial solvents to clean liners.
Solvents will not remove all abrasives
from liner walls.

hot water and liquid detergent.
