Ether cylinder
TESTING:
Ether is highly flammable. Do not use near sparks
or open flame. Do not inhale fumes. Do not operate
valve for more than 3 seconds. Overloading the
engine air housing with this highly flammable fluid
(ether) could result in an explosion.
Pull knob (1) for 3 seconds or less to test operation.
If valve (2) operates but no ether is released, replace
cylinder (3) and test valve (2) again. If still no ether
is released, replace valve (2).
INSPECTION:
1.
Inspect hose for cracks or other damage. Replace if dam-
aged.
2.
Inspect valve, cylinder, adapter, hose connector, and at-
omizer for heavy corrosion, dents, or damaged threads.
Replace if damaged.
