Precautions in Post Locking Operations
1—Be sure all covers are warmed until they are flexible before attempting to assemble.
2—Be sure that the Peening Tool is not too hot. If it is, the post will melt away and be ruined. A very hot tool sometimes causes dangerous spattering of hot lead.
3—Be sure that the post is centered with the Peening Tool before forcing the Tool down on the post.
4—Be sure the cover has been forced down, so that it rests on the shoulder of the post, before releasing.
