8. Some models use a gasket and some do not. For
those with a gasket use a small amount of grease
to stick the open ends of the gasket in place
during assembly. Otherwise this gasket is
intended to seal to a clean dry surface.
9. The 824XL seals in a different manner. The
mating surfaces must be clean and dry. Then a
thin coat of Hylomar (Toro PN 505-129) is applied
to BOTH halves. Allow it to cure until it is dull and
tacky, 15 minutes or so, then assemble.
