HANDLING OF SEALS
1. Clean the grooves for O-rings and if there is any
ridge, etc., remove it.
2. Be careful not to twist O-rings. If an O-ring is
twisted, remove the twist with the fingertips.
3. During insertion, be careful not to damage the
seal.
4. Handling of Floating Seals
• Wipe all oil off the O-ring and housing of the
floating seal.
• When assembling, apply a thin coating of gear
oil to the contact surface of the housing.
• After assembly, turn the seal 2 or 3 times to get
it to fit snugly.
5. Apply grease to the lip of the oil seal.
• This is to prevent wear when it is first started up
after assembly.
