    FIGURE 6- 4 FIGURE 6- 3 NOTICE If backlash is above the specified limit, the gears are not necessarily unusable. Excessive play could be caused by worn bearings. 5. If timing gears appear to be reusable, match mark timing gear tooth mesh by making small punch marks on the ends of meshing gear teeth with a pin punch and hammer (see FIGURE 6-2, page 25).

  • Page 25: Figure 6-

    12. Remove the two drive end bearings (14) from the drive headplate (24) using a ball peen hammer and punch (see Figure 6-5, page 26). Exercise care not to damage the headplate bearing bores when removing bearings. 13. Remove the drive end spacers (33), (34) and (41). The grease seals (15) can now be driven out of the drive headplate with hammer and punch (see Figure 6-5, page 27).

  • Page 26: Section 7, Assembly Instructions

    SECTION 7 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS NOTICE Numbers in parentheses ( ) refer to key numbers in assembly drawings on pages 35, 37, 39 and 41. 1. Make sure all metallic parts are clean and free of any nicks or burrs. 2. Lubricate the outside diameter of the lip seal (15) with a light oil or grease. Install seals in both the drive headplate (24) and gear headplate (18).

  • Page 27: Figure 7-

    FIGURE 7- 3 FIGURE 7- 2 3. Assemble gear headplate (18) and mounting foot (17) to the impeller case with cap screws (21) and where the mounting foot is secured to the headplate use capscrews (16). The two positioning dowel pins (19) will ensure proper alignment of the headplate and impeller case.

    Do not drive the mating ring down to the mechanical seal, as this can damage the seal. C. Install mating ring (B) on the drive end short shaft and the gear end shaft as done in the previous step, but use spacer (33) (refer to gear end Figure 7-1, page 29).

    11. Impeller should now be checked for free axial movement by hitting the ends of the impeller shafts with the palm of your hand. 12. Push the impellers against the gear headplate and recheck the total end clearance between the drive headplate and the impellers (see FIGURE 7-4, page 31).

  • Page 30: Figure 7-

    16 SETTING IMPELLER END CLEARANCE Refer to Figure 7-1, page 29. The gear end bearings are held in position by the force created by the wavy spring (28) on the drive end and the bearing retainer (12) on the gear end. The interference fit between the shaft (H) and the bearing inner race (E) keeps the shaft from moving axially.
  • Page 31 NOTICE Replacement gears have minimum backlash marks on the outside diameter of the gear face. These marks should be located 180 degrees from each other (see Figure 7-6).. F. Position impellers so they are 90 degrees to each other. Using the driving tool shown on page 22, install the gears and hubs on the shafts using the taper pin holes and match marks for correct positioning.
