10. Remove any axcess lubrication and grease from
the mating surfaces of the front flange and rear cover.
Ensure that these surfaces are dry and free of
contamination before moving on to the next step.
11. Install the four bolts through the rear cover then
slide the assembly onto the rear of the housing (fig.
C3985). Before you slide the cover against the
housing, check to make sure all o-rings and the back-
up seal are seated properly with no foreign material
on them. If they get pinched or there is foreign
material on an o-ring, you may get internal or
external leakage.
12. Install the front cover (fig. C3986). While
keeping pressure on the front flange and the rear
cover so the o-rings wont move out of place, set the
unit in a vise with the front in the jaws.
13. Torque the four bolts by criss crossing back and
forth a little at a time until you reach the final torque.
14. After the pump has been disassembled and
reassembled it it suggested that the pump be run in
and tested on an appropriate test stand. This is done
to verify the volumetric efficiency and the integrity
of the unit.
