3.6 Assembling the Seal Housing
Figure 12.
c Make sure the grooves and airway of the seal housing are clean
and free from any contaminants (e.g. water, dirt, metal filings, etc.).
c Inspect the seal housing O-rings (supplied) for dirt, damage or
other conditions which might cause leaks.
c Generously lubricate the O-rings with oil prior to assembly, then
insert them into the grooves of the seal housing.
NOTE : When assembling the O-rings, be careful not to leave
them twisted when seated in the grooves as this could
cause excessive wear and leakage.
c Lubricate the seal housing running surface on the Air Locker carrier
with oil. Assemble the bearing cup onto the left-hand side of the Air
Locker.
c Assemble the master shim (included with the Air Locker shim kit)
onto the stepped face of the seal housing with the rounded edge of
the shim facing out.
NOTE : No shims other than the single master shim should be
assembled onto the seal housing at this time.
c Carefully install the seal housing (master shim towards the
center) by sliding it all of the way onto the bearing journal with a
gentle twisting motion. This will allow the O-rings to engage gently.
