2. Remove the clamp assembly.
3. Inspect all of the components for the following conditions:

•

Cracks

•

Bends

•	Stripped threads

•	Corrosion damage

•

Leaks

4. Replace any damaged components as necessary.

1. Insert the small pipe into the small end of the sleeve.
2. Slide the sleeve back onto the pipe.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

7. Install the bolts (4).
