inches to avoid damaging the micro-finish
sealing surface of the face plate. Tap the sleeve lightly
until the seal face plate is fully seated in the housing.
(6) Install the bearing housing oil seal, using plenty
of refrigerant oil.
(7) Install the housing, making sure that it is in
proper alignment with the screw holes. The gas seal
assembly may be damaged if the bearing housing is
rotated after the housing seal contacts the carbon
seal.
(8) Install the bolts and tighten 10 to 13 foot-pounds

Inspection
Clean and inspect all parts. Replace questionable
parts as required. If the crankshaft ball bearing is in
good condition and clean, protect

dirt and re-use it. If bearing is serviceable but dirty,
or there is evidence of dirt, clean it carefully with
mineral spirits and shake dry. Saturate bearing with
clean refrigerant oil and assemble immediately. If
a new bearing is to be installed, leave it wrapped in
its protective package until ready for installation.
NOTE: Do not wash a new bearing assembly be-
fore installation.
