Important Notes

• Verify compatibility with your specific Homelite equipment model, UT number, serial number, assembly configuration, and production revision before ordering.
• Homelite identifies UP03418 as a Flat Washer.
• Match part number UP03418 directly with the number shown in your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation.
• This component is a flat washer and should not be confused with a lock washer, spring washer, wave washer, thrust washer, shim, spacer, retaining ring, or other specialized hardware.
• Do not assume that a generic washer with approximately the same diameter is an appropriate replacement.
• Washers can differ in inside diameter, outside diameter, thickness, material, hardness, finish, and intended load characteristics.
• Inspect the associated bolt, screw, nut, shaft, bracket, bushing, bearing, or mounting surface when replacing the washer.
• If the original washer is bent, distorted, or excessively worn, inspect the mating components for looseness, misalignment, excessive movement, or incorrect fastener installation.
• Replace stripped, bent, cracked, heavily corroded, or otherwise damaged associated hardware as necessary.
• Clean the mounting location and mating surfaces before installing the replacement washer.
• Install UP03418 in the same factory location and sequence as the original component.
• Use the correct associated fastener and tighten it according to the manufacturer's specifications.
• Do not overtighten fasteners in an attempt to compensate for worn, damaged, or missing components.
• After installation, verify that the associated assembly is correctly aligned and securely retained.
• If the washer is installed near a moving assembly, verify that proper clearance is maintained and that no binding or interference occurs.
• Shut off the equipment, allow moving components to stop completely, disconnect the applicable power source, and follow Homelite service procedures before performing repairs.
• This listing is for one Homelite UP03418 Flat Washer only unless otherwise specified. Bolts, screws, nuts, shafts, brackets, bushings, bearings, and other associated hardware are sold separately.
