HOW TO SOLDER
Apply a few drops of soldering fl ux to the end of the pushrod.
"Tin" the end of the pushrod by applying heat. Apply silver
solder to the heated area. The pushrod should melt the
solder, not the fl ame of the torch. The end of the pushrod
should be tinned all the way around.
Position the solder clevis on the pushrod and apply a drop
of fl ux to the joint. Apply heat and add solder. Again, the
heat of the part should melt the solder, not the fl ame of
the torch. Allow the part to cool naturally. Make sure the
joint is thoroughly soldered. It should be shiny, not rough.
Reheat if necessary.
Wipe off the fl ux residue with denatured alcohol. Coat the
joint with oil to prevent rust.
