Apply a lubricating product until it begins to emerge through the screw holes
(loosen one additional screw to ease emerging grease) or from the dust seal end. It
is highly recommended to use such a product as DuPont Krytox GPL-204 to ensure
superior cold temperature performance and longevity of the internal seals.
Remove grease-fitting adapter; reinsert the set-screw (3) complete with lock washer
(4); tighten snug, but be careful not to strip the threads!
Inspection and Rebuild:
The DIXON BAYCO hose swivel may be rebuilt while still
connected to the hose fittings. However, the hose line must be depressurized and
completely emptied prior to disassembly TO AVOID COMPONENT DAMAGE OR
PERSONAL INJURY!
Remove all three set-screws (3) and lock washers (4); gently pull swivel housing
(1A/1B and 2A/2B) apart.
Remove dust seal (13) and rear bearing (10); remove front bearing (9); remove o-
ring holder complete with o-ring seals (7, 11, 12); remove support washer (14).
At this point it may be decided to simply replace the main seals (7, 11, 12), the dust
seal (13) and the radial bearings (10, 9). If this is the case, use repair kit SWMF-RK2 /
SWMF-RK22. Then, skip the next two disassembly steps and proceed to the bottom
paragraph describing reassembly. However, if a complete rebuild is required
(including ball bearing [5, 6] and support ring [15]), use repair kit SWMF-RK3 /
SWMF-RK32 and proceed with the following instructions.
Remove retaining ring (8) with proper removal pliers, be careful NOT TO
SCRATCH any sealing surfaces on the swivel inlet (2A/2B) when pulling off.
Remove thrust washers (6) and thrust bearing (5); remove support ring (15).
Thoroughly wipe off the old grease from all removed components with a clean rag.
Visually examine all components. Remove any burrs and sharp edges that could
damage the seals during reassembly. Replace any damaged parts. Before assembly,
liberally apply lubricant (DuPont Krytox GPL-204 is recommended) to the inside
diameter of the swivel body (1A/1B), the outside diameter of the swivel inlet (2A/2B),
the o-ring holder complete with o-ring seals (7, 11, 12), and the thrust bearing (5).
Reinstall all components in reverse order as disassembly instructions.
