Trunnion and Shaft Seals
1. Remove retaining rings (21) and washers (20).
NOTICE
2. Carefully pry seals (19) out of housing bore.
3. Clean and inspect the shaft, remove any sharp
edges.
Inspection Notes
• Keeping parts in assembly order, clean and air dry
each item for inspection.
• Inspect for worn or defective parts.
• Look for metal chips or slivers during cleaning (an
indication of damage to pump or other hydraulic
component).
Assembly Notes
• Install seals by reversing the order of removal.
• The outside diameter of the seals may be coated
with a sealant (such as Loctite
®
High Performance
Sealant #5923) prior to installation. This will aid in
preventing leaks caused by seal bore damage.
• Cover the end of the shaft with tape before installing
the charge pump housing to prevent damaging the
seals (19).
• Apply a thin film of clean hydraulic oil to seals (19)
before assembly.
