Renewing Drive Shaft Seal
Note:
The following procedure describes renewal of the
shaft seal. However this is not the normal sequence, the
sealing ring would normally be assembled with the taper
roller bearing from inside the pump to ensure a secure
sealing condition. If the shaft seal is to be renewed in this
manner, it is extremely important not to scratch or damage
the shaft, otherwise leakage will occur.
