Spare parts

Spare parts necessary for the planned repair should be obtained before starting work. Prepare a parts list, which you will need. It should be remembered not only about the directly damaged element, but also about related parts and auxiliary materials, like for example. seals, fastening rings, or lock nuts. It is worth asking your parts dealer about this. He has extensive experience in these matters.
