Welcome from MS. If you haven't watched the Henry Maintenance video's on their site, you should. They make disassembly, cleaning, and assembly much easier. :)

I'm from Davenport Iowa by the way retired from Alcoa (Arconic).
I was in aluminum anodizing for 30 years and worked for several companies but never Alcoa. May I ask what you did at Alcoa?

Of course Alcoa bought Reynolds. Then they split and I was working for Arconic.
