Schedule for Oil Changes
:
Oil temps below 160 F
=
36 months
Oil temps between 160 F and 200 F =
24 months
Oil temps between 200 F and 250 F =
12 months
* Maintenance intervals based on a clean reservoir protected from contamination. Drain if contaminated.
Also shorten first drain if added to dirty reservoir.
12-c. ASSEMBLY OF THE BEARING FRAME
[If shaft assembly and labyrinth seals are already assembled skip to Step 5]
1.
Start by lightly lubricating the labyrinth seals on the
outside O-ring. Install the labyrinth seal with the
expulsion port at the 6 o’clock position facing down,
since it works by gravity.

at 6 o’clock
2.
Use an arbor press and wide flat
arbor (necessary to distribute
the load over the entire face) to
install the labyrinth seal into the
bearing cap. The OD of the
seal is stepped - insert the
smaller diameter into the
bearing cap. Press it in only as
far as the first step will allow
and avoid angular
misalignment. Discard any
residual material from the outer
O-ring.
