GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring
satisfactory life on repaired units. Thoroughly
clean all exposed surfaces prior to any type of
maintenance. Cleaning of all parts by using a
solvent wash and air drying is usually adequate.
As with any precision equipment, all parts must
be kept free of foreign material and chemicals.
Protect all exposed sealing surfaces and open
cavities from damage and foreign material. The
external surfaces should be cleaned before
beginning any repairs. Do not use a pressure
washer to clean the transaxle or pump.
Upon removal, it is recommended that all seals,
O-rings, and gaskets be replaced. During
installation lightly lubricate all seals, O-rings
and gaskets with a clean petroleum jelly prior
to assembly. Also protect the inner diameter of
seals during installation by covering the shaft
with a cellophane or plastic wrap material. Be
sure all remnants of this covering are removed
after servicing.
Parts requiring replacement must be replaced
from the appropriate parts and kits identifi ed in
the Parts Description Listing, found at the end
of this manual. Use only original Hydro-Gear
replacement parts found at www.hydro-gear.
com or at your Hydro-Gear Central Service
Distributor.
Note: “Any and all Hydro-Gear components
removed and replaced during service are
recyclable.”
