3. After removing bolts, disassemble pump as
shown in Figure 8E-1. Before removing gears,
mark a line across meshing teeth to ensure that
gears are reassembled in the same position (see
Figure 8E-2).
4. Place parts in assembly order, on a clean work
area as they are removed.
5. Discard seals as they are removed.
INSPECTION
1. Keeping parts in assembly order, clean and air
dry each for inspection. Look for metal chips or
slivers during cleaning (an indication of damage
to pump or other hydraulic component).
2. Inspect all parts for cracks, nicks, burrs and
excessive wear. Replace parts found damaged or
worn.
REASSEMBLY (See Figure 8E-1)
1. Apply a coat of clean hydraulic oil to all parts to
ease assembly.
2. Assemble as shown in Figure 8E-1.
3. Use a new seal kit during assembly. Use clean
grease to keep seals in position.
4. Remove alignment mark from gears after they
have been installed with teeth in mesh.
5. Rotate drive shaft to make sure there is no bind-
ing between parts.
6. Use extreme care when installing shaft seal. It
must seat squarely in seal bore.
7. Install the bolts and nuts fingertight and rotate
drive shaft to make sure it turns freely. Tighten
the bolts evenly and in steps to a final torque of
30 to 31 ft-lbs. (40 to 42 N.m).
INSTALLATION
1. Install pump on bracket and tighten attaching
hardware.
2. Connect hydraulic lines.
3. Start engine. Check for leaks and hydraulic oil
level. Run engine for 2 to 3 minutes before pres-
surizing. Apply pressure gradually for an addition-
al five minutes but do not pressurize for longer
than 5 seconds at a time.
