Precautions

• Strictly control forging temperature and deformation to prevent cracks or structural defects.
• Use suitable cutting tools and machining parameters to reduce work-hardening effects.
• Clean the surface before welding to prevent contamination and ensure weld quality.
• Select appropriate operating temperatures to avoid overheating during high-temperature service.
• Prevent impact, scratches, and surface contamination during storage and transportation.
• Check dimensional accuracy and surface condition before installation for reliable assembly.
• Regular inspection is recommended to identify fatigue, corrosion, and performance changes.
