9.Apply a light film of non-staining petroleum jelly (such as Vaseline ®) to the bronze portion of the water seal and to the outer surface of the stainless steel sleeve, Figure 3.

IMPORTANT: Do not over lubricate!

10.Insert the stainless steel sleeve into the water

seal from the bottom side of the seal, Figure 3, until the sleeve is flush with the bronze portion of the seal.

11.Leave the garter spring on the seal. Place the new seal over the outer flange (with the seal lip on outside of tub flange). Then press the seal into the tub flange opening using moderate finger pressure.

12.Carefully apply a small amount of No. 27615P Sealant (supplied in kit) around the outer edge of seal and tub. (The area located just below the garter spring, Figure 3.)

IMPORTANT: Do not allow sealant to get in contact with the sealing surface of the water seal as it will cause a water leak.

13.Lubricate the inner splines of the new hub assembly (supplied in kit) with No. 27604P Anti-Seize compound,

14.Carefully place the new hub assembly on the splined transmission tube.

IMPORTANT: Firmly push hub down against the outer tub seal and hold in this position.

15.While holdirig the hub down. place the spline insert onto the transmission tube until it bottoms

against the hub. Then place the hex nut on the transmission tube (with the larger inside bevel on

the nut toward the spline insert), then tighten the nut.

IMPORTANT: Torque the hex nut down between 40 to 70 foot pounds (54.23 to 94.91 N-m). If torque wrench is not available, tap hex wrench with a hammer until hub turns or until nut will no longer tighten.

NOTE: If a lint filter was originally used between the washtub and hub, then the lint filter must be used again when installing the washtub. Then continue on with step 16.

If a gasket was originally used between the

washtub and hub, then use the new gasket (supplied in kit) and install the gasket as follows:

a, Apply a small amount of non-staining petroleum jelly (such as Vaseline ®) to each of tile sealing surfaces where washtub gasket will contact hub and the bottom of the washtub.

b. Carefully place the new washtub gasket, No. 27125, (supplied in kit) on hub.
