Abstract/Contents:Discusses the high maintenance requirements of aerators. Explains that much of the maintenance aerators need, especially tightening loose hardware, is caused by vibration in the machine. Also discusses problems caused by dirt and how to clean aerator parts that require grease or lubricant. Suggests not using steam to clean aerator parts because it may penetrate sealed bearings and cause rust or contaminate lubricants. High-pressure water is recommended for cleaning. Also presents a list of steps to prepare an aerator for storage.
