•Place the sealing collar on the axle with the smooth side upwards, and carefully press it downwards.

•Use the thick end of a 1/4" extender to carefully knock down the sealing collar until the upside of the collar is level with the axle housing's upper edge.

Move the extender in a circle around the sealing collar so that it is evenly pressed down, all the way around.

•Remove the insulation tape from the axle and assemble the lower circlip and the pulley with the hexagonal hub facing upwards.

•Fasten the fan and the washer and assemble the upper circlip.

•Install the hydrostatic transmission in the ride-on mower as indicated in the previous description (see “Removal/installation of hydrostatic trans- mission”).

•Clean the outgoing axle and the area around the sealing collar of all dirt and rust.

•Insert a screwdriver between the sealing collar and the axle and bend the sealing collar out of the axle housing with a twisting motion.

Sealing collar replacement - outgoing axles

1

Remove the rear wheels. Remove the circlips and pull the wheels outwards. Do not mislay the key that sits between the hub and axle. Use removing tool 506 57 00-01 if necessary.

Remove the spacing sleeve and washer from the wheel axle.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Dirt must not be allowed to get into the transmission as this can shorten its operational life.

•Wrap insulation tape around the outgoing axle from the start of the key-way and outwards until even the circlip's groove is covered with tape. This is done to protect the new sealing collar from damage.

•Lubricate the axle and the inside of the new sealing collar with grease so that the collar can slide easily.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Before the sealing collar is completely installed, check that the sealing collar's metal spring reinforcement sits on the side of the sealing collar which leads inwards towards the transmission.
