7.For LP122A & LP122A-4000 pumps, oil seal replacement can be accomplished by pulling the retainer forward out of the crankcase. The o-ring around the outside of the retainer should be replaced and lubri- cated with a light film of oil.

8.The back-up seal (33) can be pried out of the back of the retainer (32) with a small screw- driver. To replace with new seal, lubricate edges of new seal, then squeeze outside edges of seal, forcing the seal to col- lapse into a figure 8. Tuck the two outside edges of the figure 8 into the rear of the retainer, making sure that the inner lip of the seal faces the oil. The seal may now be pressed firmly into place.

9.The front oil seal (31A) can now be removed by inserting a screwdriver through the rear of the retainer and tapping the seal out through the front of the retainer. Remove any ex- cess old loc-tite from retainer. To replace oil seal, apply a light film of loc-tite around outside edges of seal. Tap seal firmly into the retainer with a wooden dowel making certain that the spring side of the seal is in- stalled first and that the seal sits squarely in the retainer.
