TORUS TR-130 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Maintenance Item Frequency Maintenance Required
High Pressure Seal
(See Replacement
instructions in this manual)
When water is
leaking out of
the weep holes
closest to the
inlet
The Torus has two high pressure seals, one in the inlet
shaft, and one in the cross shaft. These seals are
identical; they may leak water at low pressure (under 1000
psi) and will leak water continuously at operating pressure
during failure. If water is leaking out of the weep holes
closest to the inlet, the inlet seal is damaged. If the water
is leaking out of the weep holes furthest from the inlet, the
cross-shaft seal is damaged and must be replaced.
Lubricant and Storage Every 100 hours
of operation
It is recommended to grease the tool every 100 hours of
operation. Any multi-purpose NLGI 2 grease is acceptable.
There are ve grease ttings located on the outside of the
body. No damage will result from over-greasing the tool
but the operator will likely see any extra grease leaking
out around the shaft seals under operation. It is also
recommended to blow out all internal water passages
(nozzles, weep holes, inlet) with compressed air after each
use to maximize the life of internal components.
Magnetic Brake When necessary The magnetic brake requires no lubrication or
maintenance. If a problem is suspected with the magnetic
brake assembly, it should be sent to a certied StoneAge
repair center for service or replacement.
Threaded high pressure
connections
Before and/or
After each use
To avoid galling, for pipe thread connections use Parker
Thread Mate thread sealant (StoneAge part number
GP047) and uorocarbon tape. For all other threaded
high pressure connections use anti-seize lubricant alone.
StoneAge recommends Swagelok Blue Goop (StoneAge
part number GP 043).
Threaded fasteners When necessary It is VERY IMPORTANT that all threaded fasteners be
reassembled per the following procedure:
A) Fasteners labeled with a specic Blue Loctite (GP180)
note are to be reassembled and torque as noted.
B) All other fasteners are to be reassembled using Blue
Goop (GP 043) and torque if specied.

The use of gloves when handling the tool after operation is recommended as the body at the pulling ring end
may reach temperatures of up to 160°F depending on operating conditions. Let the tool cool down before
disassembling for any maintenance procedures.
