INSTALLATION
1. Install seals (408) into adapter housing as shown in Figure 1.
If the optional packing adapter is to be used, install only one
seal in the small end of the adapter. Use extreme care when
installing seals to avoid damage to the seals. Press or tap
seals into place by applying pressure only on the outer edge
of the seal. Make sure seals are installed evenly and are not
tilted.
2. If using the optional packing adapter, install the two studs
(413), retaining ring (412), and two nuts (414). Thread the
nuts onto the studs about 4-5 threads. Install the three
braided type seals (415) in a circular direction into the adapter
cavity. Shoulder the braided seals against the adjustable
retaining ring (412). To aid in installation of the driveshaft in
step 7, the braided seals can be flattened out slightly with a
soft hammer prior to installation. When installing the braided
seals, offset the joints from one another.
3. Lightly tap the large washer (407) into the counter bore on the
large end of the adapter to seal the braided material installed
in Step 2 or the seal installed in Step 1.
4. Place reducer on block so that it lays flat with the output shaft
up.
5. Position screw conveyor adapter (400) on the reducer output
hub so that the small end (end with 6 through holes) rest on
the reducer.
6. Place six adapter screws (409) and lock washers (410)
through the adapter and thread into the reducer. Tighten four
cap screws (409) to the torque specified in Table 1.
