Seals And Gaskets

• Check the sealing surfaces of the seals and gaskets for burrs or damages and clean thoroughly before installing.
• Check seals and gaskets for damage before installing.
• It is specified in the respective overview, if seals or gaskets must be replaced. If no overview is provided, these parts must always be replaced after removal.
• Make sure the seals are seated correctly on the cables or in the groove.

Unless otherwise specified:

• Coat the seals at the outer circumference with the respective medium (oil, coolant, refrigerant oil, etc.).

Shaft seals:

• Slightly coat the shaft seals in oil before installing at the outer diameter.
• The open side on the shaft seals faces the fluid to be sealed off.
• Certain shaft seals (for example PTFE) must be installed dry. Pay attention to the repair information for this.
• For shaft seals in the transmission area, the space in between the sealing lips must be filled with radial shaft seal sealing grease half way.
