Safety Precautions
Observe the following safety precautions when using and servicing hydrostatic products.
Loss of Hydrostatic Braking Ability
WARNING
The loss of hydrostatic drive line power in any
mode of operation (e.g., forward, reverse, or "neutral" mode) may cause the loss of hydrostatic
braking capacity. A braking system, redundant to
the hydrostatic transmission must, therefore, be
provided which is adequate to stop and hold the
system should the condition develop.
S000 001E
Fluid under High Pressure
WARNING
Use caution when dealing with hydraulic fluid
under pressure. Escaping hydraulic fluid under
pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate
your skin causing serious injury. This fluid may
also be hot enough to burn. Serious infection or
reactions can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered immediately.
S000 003E
WARNING
Certain service procedures may require the vehicle/machine to be disabled (wheels raised off
the ground, work function disconnected, etc.)
while performing them in order to prevent injury
to the technician and bystanders.

Series 90Functional Description
Functional Description
This section describes the operation of pumps, motors, and their various serviceable features. It is a useful reference for
readers unfamiliar with the functioning of a specific system.
General Description and Cross Sectional Views
Variable Displacement Pumps
The Variable Displacement Pump (PV) is designed to
convert an input torque into hydraulic power. The input
shaft turns the pump cylinder which contains a ring of
pistons. The pistons run against a tilted plate, called the
swashplate. This causes the pistons to compress the
hydraulic fluid which imparts the input energy into the
hydraulic fluid. The high pressure fluid is then ported out
to provide power to a remote function.
The swashplate angle can be varied by the control piston.
Altering the swashplate angle varies the displacement of
fluid in a given revolution of the input shaft.

Fixed Displacement Motor
The Fixed Displacement Motor (MF) is designed to
convert an input of hydraulic power into an output torque.
It operates in the reverse manner of the pump. The high
pressure hydraulic fluid enters through the input port. The
fluid pressure builds behind the pistons causing them to
move down the swashplate (the path of least resistance).
As the piston returns up the swashplate again, the fluid is
allowed to exit through the exit port. The spinning pistons
are housed in a cylinder which is connected to the output
shaft. The output torque can be applied to a mechanical
function.

The Basic Closed Circuit
The main ports of the pump are connected by hydraulic
lines to the main ports of the motor. Fluid flows, in either
direction, from the pump to the motor then back to the
pump in this closed circuit. Either of the hydraulic lines
can be under high pressure. In pumping mode the
position of the pump swashplate determines which line is
high pressure as well as the direction of fluid flow.
Case Drain and Heat Exchanger
The pump and motor require case drain lines to remove
hot fluid from the system. The motor should be drained
from its topmost drain port to ensure the case remains full
of fluid. The motor case drain can then be connected to
the lower drain port on the pump housing and out the top
most port. A heat exchanger, with a bypass valve, is
required to cool the case drain fluid before it returns to the
reservoir.

Series 90Functional Description
Common Features of Pumps and Motors
End Caps and Shafts
Series 90 pumps and motors can be supplied with a
variety of end caps and shafts to allow for almost any
configuration. For pumps, end caps are available with
system ports on either side ("side ports") or both ports on
one side ("twin ports"). Motors have end caps with ports
on the face of the end cap ("axial ports") or both ports on
one side ("twin ports"). See the Series 90 Technical
Information manuals (BLN-10029 and BLN-10030) or the
Series 90 Price Book (BLN-2-40588) for information on
available options.
Removing the end cap will void the warranty on a
Series 90 pump or motor.
Speed Sensors
Speed Sensor
An optional speed sensor can be installed on Series 90
pumps and motors to provide unit speed information. The
sensor reads a magnetic ring wrapped about the unit's
cylinder. See the corresponding Section to locate, install
and adjust the sensor.

Series 90Functional Description
Pump Features
Charge Pump
The charge pump is necessary to supply cool fluid to the
system, to maintain positive pressure in the main system
loop, to provide pressure to operate the control system,
and to make up for internal leakage. Charge pressure
must be at its specified pressure under all conditions of
driving and braking to prevent damage to the transmission.
The charge pump is a fixed-displacement, gerotor type
pump installed in the variable displacement pump and
driven off the main pump shaft. Charge pressure is limited
by a relief valve.
The standard charge pump will be satisfactory for most
applications. However, if the charge pump sizes available
for the given main pump size are not adequate, a gear
pump may be mounted to the auxiliary mounting pad and
supply the required additional charge flow.
Charge Relief Valve
The charge relief valve on the pump serves to maintain
charge pressure at a designated level. A direct-acting
poppet valve relieves charge pressure whenever it surpasses a certain level. This level is nominally set referencing case pressure at 1500 rpm. This nominal setting
assumes the pump is in neutral (zero flow); in forward or
reverse charge pressure will be lower. The charge relief
valve setting is specified on the model code of the pump.

Charge Pressure
Relief Valve
Series 90 pumps are designed with a sequenced pressure limiting system and high pressure relief valves.
When the preset pressure is reached, the pressure limiter
system acts to rapidly destroke the pump so as to limit the
system pressure. For unusually rapid load application,
the high pressure relief valve acts to immediately limit
system pressure by cross-porting system flow to the low
pressure side of the loop. The pressure limiter valve acts
as the pilot for the high pressure relief valve spool. The
high pressure relief valve is sequenced to operate at
approximately 35 bar (500 psi) above the level that initiates the pressure limiter valve.
Both the pressure limiter sensing valves and relief valves
are built into the multi-function valves (see above).
NOTE: For some applications, such as dual path ve-
hicles, the pressure limiter function may be defeated so that only the high pressure relief valve
function remains.
System Check Valves
The system check valves allow pressurized flow from the
charge pump to enter the low pressure side of the loop
whenever system pressure dips below a certain level.
This is needed as the pump will generally lose system
pressure due to leakage and other factors. Since the
pump can operate in either direction, two system check
valves are used to direct the charge supply into the low
pressure lines. The system check valves are poppet
valves located in the multi-function valve assembly.
Bypass Valves
The bypass valves ("tow") can be operated when it is
desired to move the vehicle or mechanical function when
the pump is not running. The valve is opened by manually
resetting the valve position.

Series 90Functional Description
Displacement Limiters
All Series 90 pumps are designed for optional mechanical
displacement (stroke) limiters. The maximum displacement of the pump can be limited in either direction.
The setting can be set as low as 0° in either direction.
For instructions on adjustment see corresponding Section.
Auxiliary Mounting Pads
Auxiliary mounting pads are available on all Series 90
pumps. SAE A through E mounts are available (availability varies by pump size). This pad is used for mounting
auxiliary hydraulic pumps and for mounting additional
Series 90 pumps to make tandem pumps. The pads allow
for full through-torque capability.
Filtration Options
All Series 90 pumps are available with provisions for
either suction or charge pressure filtration (integral or
remote mounted) to filter the fluid entering the charge
circuit.
Suction Filtration
The suction filter is placed in the circuit between the
reservoir and the inlet to the charge pump. When suction
filtration is used, a reducer fitting is placed in the charge
pressure gauge port (M3). Filtration devices of this type
are provided by the user.

option.

Pressure Override (POR) - 180 Frame Size Only
The pressure override valve (POR) modulates the control
pressure to the displacement control to maintain a pump
displacement which will produce a system pressure level
less than or equal to the POR setting. For unusually rapid
load application, the high pressure relief valve function of
the multifunction valves is available to also limit the
pressure level.
The pressure override consists of a three-way normally
open valve which operates in series with the pump
displacement control. Control supply pressure is normally ported through the pressure override valve to the
displacement control valve for controlling the pump's
displacement. If the system demands a pressure above
the override setting, the POR valve will override the
control by reducing the control pressure supplied to the
displacement control. As the control pressure reduces,
the internal forces tending to rotate the swashplate
overcome the force of the servo pistons and allow the
pump's displacement to decrease.
12
Series 90Functional Description
Pump Control Options
Manual Displacement Control (MDC)
The manual displacement control converts a mechanical input signal to a hydraulic signal using a spring- centered fourway servo valve. This valve ports hydraulic pressure to either side of a dual-acting servo piston. The servo piston rotates
the cradle swashplate through an angular rotation of ±17°, thus varying the pump’s displacement from full displacement
in one direction to full displacement in the opposite direction.
The MDC is designed so the angular position of the pump swashplate is proportional to the rotation of the control input
shaft.
Non-Linear MDC
The non-linear manual displacement control operates in
the same manner as the regular MDC except that it is
designed so the change in the angular position of the
pump swashplate
input shaft is rotated toward its maximum displacement
position.
Solenoid Override Valve for MDC
progressively
increases as the control
A solenoid override valve option (not shown here) is
available for MDC. This safety feature will return the
swashplate to zero displacement position when activated. The valve may be set in either a normally open or
normally closed mode.
Neutral Start Switch (NSS)
The neutral start switch is an optional feature available
with MDC. When connected properly with the vehicle’s
electrical system, the neutral start switch ensures that the
prime mover can be started only when the control is in a
neutral position.
Hydraulic Displacement Control (HDC)
The hydraulic displacement control uses a hydraulic input
signal to operate a spring-centered four-way servo valve.
This valve ports hydraulic pressure to either side of a
dual-acting servo piston. The servo piston rotates the
cradle swashplate through an angular rotation of ±17°,
thus varying the pump’s displacement from full displacement in one direction to full displacement in the opposite
direction. The HDC is designed so the angular position of
the pump swashplate is proportional to input pressure.

Series 90Functional Description
Electric Displacement Control (EDC)
The electric displacement control is similar to the hydraulic displacement control with the input signal pressure
controlled by a pressure control pilot (PCP) valve. The
PCP valve converts a DC electrical input signal to a
hydraulic signal which operates a spring- centered fourway servo valve. This valve ports hydraulic pressure to
either side of a dual-acting servo piston. The servo piston
rotates the cradle swashplate through an angular rotation
of ±17°, thus varying the pump’s displacement from full
displacement in one direction to full displacement in the
90000241

opposite direction. The control is designed so the angular
position of the swashplate is proportional to the EDC
input.
Automotive Control (FBA II B)
Automotive Control allows a vehicle to be driven in a
manner similar to an automobile with an automatic transmission.
The Automotive Control includes a three-position electric
control to provide direction control.
PV with 3-Position (FNR) Electric Control
3-Position (FNR) Electric Control
This control utilizes a 12 or 24 VDC electrically operated
spool valve to port pressure to either side of the pump
displacement control piston. Energizing one of the solenoids will cause the pump to go to its maximum displacement in the corresponding direction.
All functions of the three-position (FNR) electric control
are preset at the factory.

Motor Features
Motor Loop Flushing Valve and Charge Relief
Valve
All Series 90 motors are designed to accommodate a loop
flushing valve. The loop flushing valve is used in installations which require additional fluid to be removed from
the main hydraulic circuit because of transmission cooling requirements, or unusual circuits requiring additional
loop flushing to remove excessive contamination in the
high pressure circuit.
Loop Flushing Valve (MF)
A shuttle valve and charge relief valve are installed in the
motor end cap to provide the loop flushing function. The
shuttle valve provides a circuit between the low pressure
side of the closed loop and the charge relief valve in the
motor end cap.
The motor charge relief valve regulates the charge pressure level only when there is a pressure differential in the
main loop. The shuttle valve is spring centered to the
closed position so that no high pressure fluid is lost from
the circuit when reversing pressures.
90000248
For charge relief valve adjustment see corresponding
Section.
Variable Motor Displacement Limiters
All Series 90 variable motors include mechanical displacement (stroke) limiters. Both the maximum and minimum displacement of the motor can be limited.

Series 90Initial Start-Up Procedure
Initial Start-Up Procedure
The following start-up procedure should always be followed when starting-up a new Series 90 installation or
when restarting an installation in which either the pump or
motor had been removed.
WARNING
The following procedure may require the vehicle/
machine to be disabled (wheels raised off the ground,
work function disconnected, etc.) while performing
the procedure in order to prevent injury to the
technician and bystanders. Take necessary safety
precautions before moving the vehicle/machine.
S000 007E
Prior to installing the pump and/or motor, inspect the units
for damage incurred during shipping and handling. Make
certain all system components (reservoir, hoses, valves,
fittings, heat exchanger, etc.) are clean prior to filling with
fluid.
Fill the reservoir with recommended hydraulic fluid. This
fluid should be passed through a 10 micron (nominal, no
bypass) filter prior to entering the reservoir. The use of
contaminated fluid will cause damage to the components,
which may result in unexpected vehicle/machine movement. See the publications BLN-9887 and SDF 697581
for further related information.
The inlet line leading from the reservoir to the pump must
be filled prior to start-up. Check inlet line for properly
tightened fittings and make sure it is free of restrictions
and air leaks.
Be certain to fill the pump and/or motor housing with
clean hydraulic fluid prior to start up.
Fill the housing by pouring filtered oil into the upper case
drain port.
Install a 50 bar (or 1000 psi) pressure gauge in the charge
pressure gauge port to monitor the charge pressure
during start-up.
It is recommended that the external control input signal
(linkage for MDC, hydraulic lines for HDC, or electrical
connections for EDC) be disconnected at the pump
control until after initial start-up. This will ensure that the
pump remains in its neutral position.
WARNING
Do not start prime mover unless pump is in neutral
position (0° swashplate angle). Take precautions to
prevent machine movement in case pump is actuated
during initial start up.
S000 008E
“Jog” or slowly rotate prime mover until charge pressure
starts to rise. Start the prime mover and run at the lowest
possible RPM until charge pressure has been established. Excess air may be bled from the high pressure
lines through the high pressure system gauge port.
Once charge pressure has been established, increase
speed to normal operating RPM. Charge pressure should
be as indicated in the pump model code. If charge
pressure is inadequate, shut down and determine cause
for improper pressure. Refer to Troubleshooting.
WARNING
Take necessary precautions that the motor shaft
remains stationary during the adjustment
procedure.
S000 010E
Shut down the prime mover and connect the external
control input signal. Also reconnect the machine function
if disconnected earlier. Start the prime mover, checking
to be certain the pump remains in neutral. With the prime
mover at normal operating speed, slowly check for forward and reverse machine operation.
Charge pressure may slightly decrease during forward or
reverse operation. Continue to cycle slowly between
forward and reverse for at least five minutes.
Shut down prime mover, remove gauges, and plug ports.
Check reservoir level and add filtered fluid if needed.
The transmission is now ready for operation.

Series 90Fluid and Filter Maintenance
Fluid and Filter Maintenance
To ensure optimum service life of Series 90 products,
regular maintenance of the fluid and filter must be performed. Contaminated fluid is the main cause of unit

Check the reservoir daily for proper fluid level, the presence of water (noted by a cloudy to milky appearance, or
free water in bottom of reservoir), and rancid fluid odor
(indicating excessive heat). If either of these conditions
occur, change the fluid and filter immediately.
It is recommended that the fluid and filter be changed
per the vehicle/machine manufacturer’s recommendations or at the following intervals:
First change
500 operating hours after start up
second and subsequent changes
every 2000 operating hours or once a year.
This recommendation applies for the most applications.
High temperatures and pressures will result in accelerated fluid aging and an earlier fluid change may be
required. At lower fluid loads longer change intervalls are
possible. Therefore we suggest to check the fluid with the
manufacturer for suitability. This should be done at latest
half way between fluid changes.
It may be necessary to change the fluid more frequently
than the above intervals if the fluid becomes contaminated with foreign matter (dirt, water, grease, etc.) or if
the fluid has been subjected to temperature levels greater
than the recommended maximum. Never reuse fluid.
The filter should be changed whenever the fluid is changed
or whenever the filter indicator shows that it is necessary
to change the filter.

1. To measure pump charge pressure, install a pressure gauge in the pump charge pressure gauge port
(M3). Also install a gauge to measure case pressure
(tee into L1 or L2 or use servo gauge port). Operate
the system with the pump in “neutral” (zero displacement) when measuring pump charge pressure.
2. The table shows the acceptable pump charge pressure range for some nominal charge relief valve
settings (see sample model code at right). These
pressures assume 1500 pump rpm and a reservoir
temperature of 50°C (120°F ), and are referenced to
case pressure (see footnote on next page). Smaller
displacement charge pumps will produce charge
pressure readings in the lower portion of the range,
while larger displacement charge pumps will produce
readings in the higher portion of the range.

Series 90Inspections and Adjustments
3. Earlier production Series 90 pumps are equipped
with a shim adjustable charge pressure relief valve.
Shim kits are available from SAUER-SUNDSTRAND.
Adjustment of charge pressure is accomplished by
removing the plug [1 inch Hex] and changing the shim
thickness behind the spring. The plug for this type of
charge relief valve should be torqued to 68 Nm
(50 lbf•ft).
Later production Series 90 pumps are equipped with

Clockwise rotation of the plug increases the setting,
and counterclockwise rotation decreases the setting
(at a rate of approximately 3.9 bar (50 psi) per turn).
The lock nut for this type of charge relief valve should
be torqued to 52 Nm (39 lbf•ft).
4. Once the desired charge pressure setting is achieved,
remove the gauges.

Series 90Inspections and Adjustments
Multi-Function Valve Pressure Adjustment
Adjustment of the pressure limiter setting and the high
pressure relief valve setting is accomplished simultaneously. The latter is automatically set approximately
35 bar (500 psi) above the former.
In order to adjust the pressure limiter setting, the motor
output shaft must be locked so it does not rotate. This
may be accomplished by locking the vehicle’s brakes or
rigidly fixing the work function so it cannot rotate.
WARNING
Take necessary precautions that the motor shaft
remains stationary during the adjustment procedure.
1. Install two 1000 bar (or 10 000 psi) pressure gauges
in the high pressure gauge ports (M1 and M2). Install
a 50 bar (or 1000 psi) pressure gauge in the pump
charge pressure gauge port (M3).

5. The factory preset pressure limiter setting is shown
on the model code as at right. It is referenced to
charge pressure, so the pressure limiter setting is the
difference between the high and low pressure sides
of the system loop. Activate or move the control input
so that pressure increases in the high pressure side
of the closed circuit to the pressure limiter pressure
setting. The pressure limiter setting is reached when
the pressure stops increasing and remains steady at
a given pressure level (as shown on the gauges).
6. Return the pump to its “neutral” (zero flow) position
and adjust the pressure limiter setting by rotating the
pressure adjusting screw with the internal hex wrench.
Clockwise rotation of the pressure adjustment screw
will increase the pressure setting, and counterclockwise rotation will decrease the pressure setting. Each
complete rotation of the pressure adjusting screw
changes the pressure as shown in the following table.

The neutral start switch (NSS) provides a means to
prevent the system prime mover from starting while the
pump control handle and control input shaft are in a
position which would command the pump to go “instroke” in either the “forward” or “reverse” direction.
When the control input shaft is in its “neutral” position, the
inner end of the switch pin moves into a slot on the
eccentric cam attached to the control shaft. This allows
the spring loaded NSS to close, completing the electrical
starting circuit for the prime mover.
When the control input shaft is NOT in its “neutral”
position, the eccentric cam moves the switch pin out of
the slot. This forces the NSS to open, breaking the
electrical starting circuit for the prime mover.
The neutral start switch is threaded into the special lock
nut for the eccentric plug.
Turning the NSS clockwise (CW) into the special nut will
move the NSS closer to the switch cam on the control
shaft, and will narrow the NSS deadband. Turning the
NSS counterclockwise (CCW) out of the special nut will
move the NSS farther from the switch cam on the control
shaft, and will widen the NSS deadband.
The switch pin is located in an eccentric plug which is
turned to move the center of the NSS deadband.

Series 90Inspections and Adjustments
The NSS must be adjusted to meet the following three
requirements:
i.The distance the control handle can be turned with-
out opening the NSS is called the “NSS Deadband.”
The distance the control handle can be moved without moving the control spool enough to port hydraulic
fluid to the pump displacement control cylinders is
called the “Control Deadband.” These deadbands
must be centered in relation to each other.

Since the position of the control deadband cannot be

ii.The NSS deadband must be wide enough so the NSS
will not open within the loose area of control handle
movement caused by normal operating clearances in
the control linkage (control shaft “free-play”).
By setting the NSS to open outside this area, the
control spool springs or control shaft centering spring
can always act to return the handle to “neutral” and
re-close the NSS.
iii. The NSS deadband must be narrow enough so the
NSS will open before the unit builds 7 bar (100 psi)
differential system pressure in either direction.

direction to assure continuity is broken when the
control is not in the “neutral” position.
7. If continuity is obtained in “neutral” and satisfactorily
interrupted in each direction, proceed to check the
switch with the prime mover running. The switch
must open before the unit builds 7 bar (100 psi)
differential system pressure in either direction.
If the switch opens after the unit builds system
pressure in either direction, loosen the switch lock
nut and turn the switch clockwise (CW) 1/12 turn
(30°). Tighten the switch lock nut and recheck the
switch operation. Repeat this procedure if necessary.
8. If continuity is not interrupted with an equal move-
ment of the control handle in each direction, turn off
prime mover, remove the pressure gauges, and
continue with the next section.
9. If neutral start switch operation is satisfactory, turn
off the prime mover, remove the pressure gauges,
and reconnect the external control linkage.
Checking Continuity of NSS (System Pressure Gauges
The NSS deadband and the control deadband must be
centered in relation to each other.
Since the position of the control deadband cannot be
adjusted, the position of the NSS deadband must be
adjusted to match it. The switch pin is located in an
eccentric plug which is turned to move the center of the
NSS deadband.
The MDC should be installed on the pump and be in its
“neutral” position when adjusting the neutral start switch

5. Slowly move the control handle in the opposite
direction. Again, continuity must be broken before
the gauge pressure increases more than 1 bar (12 psi)
from base pressure.
6. Continuity must again be verified when the control is

2. The following table shows acceptable motor charge
pressures for some nominal charge relief valve settings (see model code at right). These pressures
assume a reservoir temperature of 50°C (120°F).
They are referenced to case pressure and assume a
one pump/one motor system.
3. Earlier production Series 90 motors are equipped
with a shim adjustable charge relief valve. Shim kits
are available as service items. Adjustment of the
charge pressure is accomplished by removing the
plug (7/8 inch hex) and changing the shim thickness
behind the spring. The plug for this type charge relief
port should be torqued to 68 Nm (50 lbf•ft).
Later production Series 90 motors are equipped with
an external screw adjustable charge relief valve.
Adjustment of charge pressure is accomplished by
loosening the lock nut,

and turning the adjustment plug with a large screwdriver or a 1/2 inch hex wrench. Clockwise rotation of
the plug increases the setting, and counterclockwise
rotation decreases the setting (at a rate of approximately 5.4 bar [78 psi] per turn). The lock nut for this
type charge relief valve should be torqued to 52 Nm
(38 lbf•ft).

Both the maximum and minimum displacement may be
limited.
1. Remove the tamper resistant cap from the displacement limiter screw. Loosen the seal lock nut retaining
the displacement limiter adjusting screw with a 19 mm
wrench.
Caution
The displacement limiters act as travel stops for the
swashplate. Do not turn the limiter screws
counterclockwise beyond the point of contact with
the swashplate for either the maximum or minimum
displacement position.

2. All adjustments can only be done when the motor is
running and the pump is in neutral position. Steer the
respective displacement limiter by the control.
Rotate the adjusting screw with a 6 mm internal hex
wrench. Rotating the maximum displacement adjusting screw clockwise will decrease the maximum
displacement of the motor. Rotating the minimum
displacement adjusting screw clockwise will increase
the minimum displacement of the motor.

Minor Repair Instructions
Minor repairs may be performed, following the procedures in this section, without voiding the unit warranty.
Although specific models are shown, these procedures
apply to all series and types of units in the Series 90
Family.
Cleanliness is a primary means of ensuring satisfactory
transmission life, on either new or repaired units. Cleaning parts by using a solvent wash and air drying is
adequate, providing clean solvent is used. As with any
precision equipment, the internal mechanism and related
items must be kept free of foreign materials and chemicals.
Protect all exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities
from damage and foreign material.
It is recommended that all gaskets and O-rings be
replaced when servicing. All gasket sealing surfaces
must be cleaned prior to installing new gaskets. Lightly
lubricate all O-rings with clean petroleum jelly prior to

Series 90Minor Repair Instructions
Shaft Seal and Shaft Replacement
Lip type shaft seals are used on Series 90 pumps and
motors. These seals and/or the shafts can be replaced
without major disassembly of the unit. However, replacement usually requires removal of the pump or motor from
the machine.
1. Position the pump with the shaft facing up.
Note:If the unit is positioned horizontally when the
shaft is removed, the cylinder block could move
out of place, making shaft installation difficult.
2. Remove the three or four screws holding the retainer
plate and seal carrier to the housing, using a 10 mm
hex wrench (030 and 042 units), a 5 mm internal hex

3. After removing the screws, the spring force on the
shaft may move the seal carrier out of its bore by
approximately 5 mm (1/4 inch). If the seal carrier
does not move from its bore after removing the
screws, pry it from its bore as shown and/or lightly tap
the end of the shaft with a soft mallet.
4. Remove the O-ring from the seal carrier.
5. Place seal carrier and seal in an arbor press and
press out old seal.
6. Inspect the seal carrier, the new seal and the O-ring
for any damage or nicks.
7. Using the arbor press, press the new seal into seal
carrier. Be careful not to damage the seal.
Note:The outside diameter of the seal may be lightly
coated with a sealant (such as Loctite High
Performance Sealant #59231) prior to installation. This aids in preventing leaks caused by
damage to the seal bore in the seal carrier.
