damage, personal injury or death.
Do not install any damaged vent-air intake system components.

IMPORTANT
When the following instructions specify, to seal a vent-air intake joint,
use only Loctite Ultra Blue 587 RTV Silicone sealant. A tube of Loctite
Ultra Blue 587 RTV Silicone sealant is supplied with each optional vent-
