2.Remove the shaft seal (2). Clean any contamination from the seal bore.

3.Place a new shaft seal (2) with the part number side up into the seal bore. Apply uniform pressure to the face of the shaft seal while pressing it into the bore. This method should prevent damage or misalignment of the seal in the bore.

4.Install new retaining ring (1) into the mounting flange.

E±seal and Backup Ring Replacement (Fig. 54)

1.Place the front bearing block (14) on a clean sur- face. Remove the old backup ring (4) and E±seal (5). Clean any contamination from the E±seal groove.

2.Apply a light coat of petroleum jelly in the E±seal groove of the front bearing block (14) and on the flat side of the E±seal (5) to help keep the seals in place during assembly.

3.Place the E±seal (5) with its flat side up into the seal groove on the front bearing block (14). Place the backup ring (4) into the groove made by the E±seal and bearing block. Make sure the notches in the center of the backup ring and E±seal line up so that the backup ring sits flush with the E±seal.

4.Repeat the above steps for the rear bearing block.

O±ring Replacement (Fig. 54)

1.Remove the old O±rings (6) from the gear housing. Clean any contamination from the O±ring groove.

2.Apply a light coat of petroleum jelly in the O±ring grooves of the gear housing (10). Place a new O±ring (6) in each groove.

Reassembly (Fig. 54)

1.Place the mounting flange (3) with the shaft seal (2) side down onto a clean working surface. Make sure that the back side of the mounting flange is free of any con- tamination.

2.Place the front bearing block (14) with its seal side down onto the mounting flange (3). The open side of the E±seal (5) must point away from the matchmark on the inlet side of the mounting flange.

3.Apply a light coating of oil to the exposed face of the front bearing block (14). Make sure the tape is on the shaft end of the drive gear (10). Insert the shaft end of the drive gear (11) slowly through the front bearing block (14) and the shaft seal (2) being careful not to damage the shaft seal.

4.Place the shaft of the idler gear (12) into the remain- ing position of the front bearing block (14). Apply a light coating of oil the back face of the drive and idler gears.

5.Place the rear bearing block (13) with the seal side on the drive and idler gear shaft ends. Make sure that the open side of the E±seal (5) is pointing towards the inlet of the pump.

6.Install the two dowel pins (7) into the mounting flange (3).

7.Align the matchmarks on the gear housing (10) and mounting flange (3). Place the gear housing with the mounting flange side down and the inlet port on the open side of the E±seal (5) over the rear bearing block (13). Slide the gear housing down over the gears and front bearing block (14).

8.Make sure the rear bearing block (13) face sits just below the back face of the gear housing (3). If the rear bearing block sits higher than the rear face of the gear housing, remove the gear housing. Check that the E± seal (5), backup ring (4), or O±ring (6) did not shift out of place during assembly.

9.Place the remaining two dowel pins (7) into the rear of the gear housing (3). Align matchmarks and set end cover (8) on the rear of the gear housing.

10.Insert the four bolts (9) through the bolt holes in the end cover (8) and gear housing (3). Hand tighten each bolt and torque to 40 ft±lb (5.5 kg±m).

11.Place a small amount of oil in the inlet of the pump. rotate the drive shaft away from the inlet one revolution. If the drive shaft binds, disassemble the pump and then reassemble it. The pump is ready for use.
