Basic instructions - Shop and assembly

Shims installation

For each adjustment operation, select adjusting shims and measure individually using a micrometer, then add up
the recorded values. Do not rely on measuring the entire shimming set, which may be incorrect, or the rated value
indicated on each shim.

Rotating shaft seals

For correct rotating shaft seal installation, proceed as follows:
• Before assembly, allow the seal to soak in the oil it will be sealing for at least thirty minutes.
• Thoroughly clean the shaft and check that the working surface on the shaft is not damaged.
• Position the seal lip facing the fluid. With the hydrodynamic lip, take into consideration the shaft rotation direction
and position the grooves so that they direct the fluid towards the inner side of the seal.
• Coat the seal lip with a thin layer of lubricant (use oil rather than grease) and fill the gap between the seal lip and
the dust guard with the double seal lip with grease, unless instructed otherwise.
• Insert the seal in its seat and press down using a flat punch or seal installation tool. Do not tap the seal with a
hammer or mallet.
• While inserting the seal, check that it is perpendicular to the seat; once settled, make sure that it makes contact
with the thrust element, if required.
• To prevent damage to the shaft seal lip, position a protective guard during installation operations.

O-ring seals

Lubricate the O-ring seals before inserting them into the seats. This prevents the seals from overturning and twisting,
which jeopardizes sealing efficiency.
