6.7.5 Removing the case wearing rings
This is the procedure to be followed when removing
the case wearing ring from the diffuser and, if
applicable, the case wearing ring in the casing cover.
This depends on the structural design.
The case wearing ring has been pressed or shrunk
into the centring rim during assembly which means
that it will be necessary to drill or cut into the case
wearing ring in order to weaken the upright edge.
�� Remove the set screws [6570.1]. These set
screws lock the case wearing ring against the
diffuser [1410].
�� Measure width & height of the case wearing ring.

If this cannot be done by hand, remove it from
the casing cover by tapping with a suitable
copper rod and a hammer.

using a hammer
and chisel, see
Figure. Make sure
that the centring
rim is not
damaged.
