Assembling the Seal Housing
Figure 6.
Make sure the grooves and airway of the seal housing are clean
and free from any contaminants (e.g. water, dirt, metal filings, etc.).
Inspect the seal housing O-rings (supplied) for dirt, damage or
other conditions which might cause leaks.
Generously lubricate the O-rings with oil prior to assembly, then
insert them into the grooves of the seal housing.
NOTE :
When assembling the O-rings, be careful not to leave
them twisted when seated in the grooves as this could
cause excessive wear and leakage.
Lubricate the seal housing running surface on the
Air Locker
carrier
with oil.
Carefully install the seal housing by sliding it all of the way onto the
seal housing journal with a gentle twisting motion. This will allow
the O-rings to engage gently (Fig.6.).
