WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or injury from moving parts, always follow the Pressure Relief Procedure Warning before proceeding.

NOTE: The following metric wrenches are needed: Ml 0, Ml 3 and M30. Repair kits are available. Refer to the individual repair sections and the pump parts page for more details. For the best results, use all parts in the kits.

NOTE: There are two different tool kits to aid in servicing the pump. P/N 800-298 is used to ease installation of packings. P/N 800-271 includes the items in 800-298 and tools to aid in the removal of packing retainers.

Valves

NOTE: For a set of six valves, order P/N 801-472.

1.Remove the hex plug from the manifold using an M30 wrench.

2.Examine the o-ring under the hex plug and replace it if it is cut or distorted.

3.Remove the valve assembly from the cavity; the assembly may come apart.

4.Install the newvalve. Install the o-ring and hex plug; torque to 75 &lb (103 Nm).

NOTE: Retorque the plug after 5 hours of operation.

Pumping Section

1.Remove the eight capscrews and lockwashers from the manifold using an Ml3 wrench.

2.Carefully separate the manifold from the crankcase.

NOTE: It may be necessary to tap the manifold lightly with a soft mallet to loosen.

CAUTION

Keep the manifold properly aligned with the ceramic plungers when removing to avoid damage to the plunger or seals.

3.Carefully examine each plunger for any scoring or cracking and replace as necessary.

Servicing the Plungers

NOTE: Plunger repair kit, P/N 801-474 is available to replace retainers, o-rings, washers and backup rings for three cylinders.

1.Loosen the plunger retaining screw five to six turns, using an Ml 0 wrench. Push the plunger towards the crankcase to separate the plunger and retaining screw.

2.Remove the screw from the plunger and examine the o-ring, backup ring and copper bearing/gasket washer. Replace these parts if necessary using kit 801-474.

3.Remove the plunger and flinger from the plunger shaft. Clean, examine and replace parts as necessary.

4.Inspect the plunger shaft for oil leakage from the crankcase. If leaking is obvious, replace the oil seals. Otherwise, DO NOT remove these seals as they cannot be reused. An oil seal kit is available to replace the seals.

5.Lightly grease the oil seal, if it is being replaced, and the flinger and replace them on the plunger shaft. Then install the plunger.

6.Lightly grease the retaining screw and the outer end of the plunger. Place the washer, o-ring and backup ring around the screw and install the screw through the plunger. Torque to 14.4 ft-lb (19.5 Nm).

NOTE: If you plan to replace the packings, refer to Servicing the V-Packings.

7.Lubricate the outside of each plunger. Slide the manifold onto the crankcase, being careful not to damage the seals.

a. Install the capscrews and washers finger-tight. Torque the screws to 21.7 ft-lb (29 Nm) following the tightening pattern (Figure 3). Uneven tightening may cause the manifold to bind or jam.
