packings into the packing oil reservoir (fig. 16, item 1)

Use care in handling parts as dirt, debris,
scratches, or nicks may prevent o-rings or gaskets
from sealing.
This filter element filters from the inside out. Be
sure to clean the filter element thoroughly on the
inside. Soak in solvent to loosen hardened paint
or replace.
