NOTE: Before the re-installation of the blades, you must apply a large quantity of lubricant to all the dovetail and the slot pressure faces. Brush application is preferred. If you use spray application, a minimum of four to six passes is necessary to supply all the pressure faces with sufficient lubrication. Let the lubricant become dry to a dull opaque finish before you install the blades in the disk slots.
