Job Card D/R A232 - Lift Screw Assembly
6-3 Preparation of the New Lift Screw
6-3-1 Clean Leadscrew
The Lift Screw Assembly is supplied with an anti-corrosion oil that is incompatible with the grease for the
Lead Screw, resulting in the degradation of the Lift Screw Assembly.
Clean the Leadscrew with a cleaner and a cloth until all of the old grease is fully removed, using the fol-
lowing sub-steps:
1. Apply Cleaner Spray to the Leadscrew. Recommended product: 3M Cleaner Spray (3M PN 50098)..
Note:
When working with grease, and to protect your hands against the Leadscrew, always wear rubber
cloves.
2. Use ORA Wipes (or equivalent) cloths for removing the grease from the Leadscrew. Rotate the ORA
Wipes cloth around the Leadscrew and draw wipe both direction along the entire length of the Lead-
screw as shown below.
Take care not to use the type of cloth wipes that could disintegrate, since the loosened threads or
particles may get mixed with the grease.
