R&R-Water Seal

To Remove the Water Seal:

(Assuming all steps to remove the auger have been performed)

1.The gear motor/evaporator assembly will have to be exposed.

2.Remove the four (4) hex head cap screws holding the evaporator to the gear motor assembly. Lift the evaporator up and off the gear motor.

3.Remove the snap ring or wire retainer from the groove under the water seal.

4.Pull or drive out the lower half of the water seal.

Removal of the Water Seal

To Replace the Water Seal:

1.Lubricate the water seal with water, and push the water seal into the bottom of the evaporator slightly past the groove for the snap ring.

2.Replace the snap ring and pull the water seal down against it.

3.The part of the water seal that rotates with the auger must also be

replaced. Remove the old part from the auger and clean the mounting area.

4.Place a small bead of food grade silastic sealant (Such as 732 RTV) on the area of the auger where the water seal is to be mounted.

5.Carefully push the water seal (Rubber side against the auger shoulder and the silastic.)

Caution: DO NOT get any silastic onto the face of the seal.

6.Allow the auger and seal to air dry until the silastic is dry on the surface.

7.If the original water seal was leaking, it would be a good idea to inspect the interior of the gear motor.
