Anti-Seize Compound - Apply a small amount of the supplied Anti-Seize Compound to the aluminum joints and
to the threads of the U-Bolts to prevent galling.
CAUTION:
While we strive to remove all burrs from all machined parts, there is always the possibility of
sharp edges. We strongly suggest checking the edges and use a fine file, or 400 grit sandpaper,
to remove any burrs that may have been left.
