Step 1
Inlet Collar
Loosen the Collar Set Screw (60) with a 5/64
” Hex Key, minimum 2 turns.
Remove the Inlet Collar (3) and Stator (10). If the (3) is tight in coming off of the main body, place the main body in a vise
equipped with soft jaw covers. Wrap a towel around the (3) and loosen it with an adjustable wrench.
Warning: Hold or turn on Stem (38). DO NOT hold or turn on Tee Housing (39) or Tee Housing Cap (35). Doing so
will damage the Geartrain (drawing 8).
Step 2
Geartrain
Remove the Cap Screws (57) from the Cap (2)
part using a 3/32” Hex Key.
Remove the (2) and Body Gasket (32). Alfa Laval Gamajet Equipment recommends replacing all Gaskets after dismantling.
Remove the Collar Small and Large O-rings (26) and (27). Inspect for wear or brittleness and replace as needed. A
sharpened brass pick may be helpful in starting to get the (26) and (27) off. Replace with new O-Rings if they show any signs
of wear or brittleness.
Loosen the Button Head Screws (51) from the Flow-Thru A2 Stem (50)
using a 5/64” Hex Key. It is advisable to use the ball

Inspect the (45) for worn, damaged or sharp/pointed teeth.
Inspect the Tee Housing Bearings (54) and (53). Clean any deposits from the exterior of them and check their fit in the (39).
The external ring may be a tight fit with the inside of the (39). Once installed, however, the body of the Bearings should turn
freely. Also, the (56) should be free from damage, compression set, or deterioration.
Clean any deposits from the internal bore of the (39) and examine for excessive wear. Light scoring is acceptable, but the
