1.8 GENERAL MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

Unless otherwise specied, moving parts, threads, O-rings and seals must be greased before

assembly.

CLEANING

For an optimal result of the maintenance works, every component that will be disassembled must be

cleaned. Only use cleaners which do not damage the components. Especially the cleaning of O-rings

and sealings requires mild cleaners. Observe the instructions for use of the respective cleaner.

DT Swiss recommends the following cleaners:

• Motorex Rex

• Motorex Swissclean

• Motorex OPAL 2400, 3000 OPAL, OPAL 5000

Use soapy water or similar mild cleaners for external cleaning.

TOOLS

To ensure a damage-free mounting and dismounting of the components, only use the tools which

are mentioned in this manual. Special tools are indicated at the beginning of a chapter in the table

"Required material".

The use of different tools is at the discretion of the user. If components are damaged by the usage of

differing tools, the user is liable.

DT Swiss special tools are precision tools. Damage-free mounting and dismounting of the components

can only be ensured if the tools are working properly and if the condition of the tools are perfect.

Always keep the tools in their original packaging or adequate devices to prevent damage.
