Floating Seal
• Be sure to wipe off any oil from the O-ring or surfaces that touch
the O-ring. (For wheel motors, apply a light film)
• When putting an O-ring into a floating seal, make sure the
O-ring does not twist.
• Apply a light film of oil to surrounding surfaces when working to
get the floating seal with O-ring in place; take care that the
surrounding surfaces, O-ring and housing are parallel with each
other.
• After getting the seal in place, turn the engine over 2 or 3
revolutions, to both create a film of oil on surrounding surfaces
and to properly seat the face of the seal.

Adhesive
• Clean and dry the area where adhesive will be applied with a
solvent so it is free of moisture, oil and dirt.
• Apply adhesive all around the threads of the bolt except the first
set of threads at the tip and fill the grooves between the threads.
If the threads or the grooves are large, adjust the amount of
adhesive accordingly and apply it all around the bolt hole as
well.
