nut (334) tight the DE sleeves against the impeller hub.After fixing the DE sleeve locate
the NDE sleeve with sleeve nut. Slide the casing rings (190) onto the impellers. Insert the
gland (229) from DE & NDE side of shaft.
6.2.6 Heat the bearing (260 & 263) to approximately 100 deg. C. (212 deg. F) using
