If leaving the weight plates installed on the lever arm 
make it too difficult to lift or maneuver, remove the 
weight plates by removing the weight retention nut and 
washer. Otherwise the seal can be replaced without 
removing the weight plates by proceeding to step 4.

Remove the EPRV lever arm hinge pin with the pair of 
pliers.

Remove the lever arm and pallet assembly and flip 
over for access to the seal.

Remove the seal retention bolt, washer and plate with 
the 7/16 box wrench.

Replace the old seal with the new seal.

Reinstall the seal retention plate washer and bolt. 
Tighten the bolt until the seal retention plate contacts 
the EPRV lid. Tighten snug.

Grease the seal face with Hawkeye Severe Service 
Grease.

Reassemble the EPRV and return to service.
