OIL Seal Replacement, OIL Seal Removal | Camco 1150E, 950E, 2050E

OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT:

CAMCO recommends replacing the Input oil seals (Item #13) anytime the input is disas- sembled regardless of whether they are dam- aged or not. After being in service for some time, the sealing lip can become brittle and easily cracked. Most damage to oil seals occurs at assembly when recommended seal installation procedures are not followed.

To replace the oil seal on the reducer side of the index drive, remove the reducer and addi- tional drive equipment as necessary to gain access to the seal. See the reducer and other manufacturers’ Service Manuals for instruc- tions on removing this equipment. On the other side of the index drive, remove visual dwell indicator or other equipment as neces- sary to gain access to the oil seal.

OIL SEAL REMOVAL:

1.To remove the oil seal, use a sharp punch and punch two (2) diametrically opposed holes through the case of the seal. Install sheet metal screws into the holes.

2.Use a Slide Hammer or Pliers (Vise Grips‚) to grip the sheet metal screws to pull out the existing seal.

CAUTION

Do not drill holes in the case of the seal. Chips will get into the unit and they cannot be easily removed. A punched hole provides a better "bite" when installing sheet metal screws into the metal case.

OIL SEAL INSTALLATION:

1.Check new seal for damage that may have occurred prior to installation.

1.1.An oil seal with a sealing lip that is

turned back, cut or otherwise damaged should be replaced and not used.

1.2.Likewise, if the outer face or outside

diameter is bent or otherwise dam- aged, replace the oil seal.

2.Check the input shaft for surface nicks, burrs or a groove from the sealing lip. Look for spiral machine marks that can damage the seal lip.

2.1.An input shaft with a groove from the sealing lip can be repaired with a Chicago Rawhide Speedi-Sleeve‚ or similar product from another manufac- turer. Consult the manufacturer for installation instructions.

2.2.Alternatively, the input shaft could be replaced instead of repaired.

3.Check the end of the input shaft and remove any burrs or sharp edges. The end of the shaft should be chamfered.

4.Check splines and keyways for burrs or sharp edges.

5.Wrap the input shaft with plastic shim stock as a temporary sleeve to guide and protect the sealing lip.

6.Check the sealing lip direction. Make sure the new seal faces the same direc- tion as the original. CAMCO's standard practice is to mount the seal so the lip faces the lubricant or fluid to be sealed.

7.Pre-lubricate the sealing element by wip- ing the surface with the lubricant being retained. Apply a thin layer of "General Electric Silicone Rubber RTV-6" or equiv- alent to the cartridge bore as a sealant. When the seal in pressed into place, a bead of sealant will form at the back edge of the steel case and prevent any leakage around the outside edge of the seal.

8.Whenever possible use an installation tool that has been specifically manufactured for installing the seal.
