I took my 4779 to my local mechanic's shop on a Saturday and asked if I could run it in his Snap-on drum. No problem, I was told, it's like the agitator on your washing machine and air pressurized. I tore it down and ran all the parts for an hour. It looked almost new after it was rinsed with water, and what little gasket material was left I could scrape off with my finger nails.
