O-rings, gaskets, seals

Always replace O-rings, gaskets and seals.
After removing gaskets and seals, always
inspect the contact surfaces on the housing or
shaft for burrs resulting from removal or for
other signs of damage.
Thoroughly clean housing joint surfaces before
assembling.

Before installing radial shaft seals, lightly oil outer edge and fill space
between sealing lip and dust lip (arrow) with oil. The open side of the seals face toward the side containing the oil.When replacing seals, always vary the point at which the sealing lips
make contact (use insertion depth tolerances). Lightly lubricate O-rings before installing, this prevents the rings from
being pinched when inserting. Check oil level after replacing gaskets and seals Page 34
