When you are using hydraulic cylinders and puller studs, always ensure
that the rated capacity of the puller stud meets or exceeds the rated
capacity of the hydraulic cylinder. If the puller stud does not meet or
exceed the rated capacity of the hydraulic cylinder, a sudden failure of
the puller stud could occur. The sudden failure of the puller stud could
result in personal injury or death.
1. Make sure that all parts of the final drive are thoroughly clean and free of dirt and debris
prior to assembly.
Note: Check the condition of all the O-ring seals that are used in the final drive. If any of
the seals are worn or damaged, use new parts for replacement.
2. Reassemble the final drive on wood blocks and Tooling (A) .

5. Apply Tooling (J) to the surfaces that contact the bearing cups. Install bearing cups (48) and
(49) .
6. Attach Tooling (C) and a suitable lifting device to main housing (45). Install main housing
(45) on motor housing (39). The weight of main housing (45) is approximately 191 kg (420
lb).

7. Install bearing cone (46) and the bearing cone.
8. Use the following procedure in order to determine the bearing preload and the correct
number of shims.
a. Use a depth micrometer in order to measure the step length of the coupling gear (42).
Take measurements at several different locations around the gear. Compute the
average of the measured dimensions and record the number. Call this Dimension (X) .
4/17
2020/10/26

b. Use Tooling (F) to apply a load of 10700 kPa (1550 psi) in order to seat the bearings.
A pressure of 10700 kPa (1550 psi) is the equivalent of 10000 kg (22050 lb) on a
suitable press. Rotate the housing in order to seat the bearing. Reduce the load to
4825 kPa (700 psi).
c. Rotate Tooling (F) by 90° and repeat Step 8.b.
d. Maintain the load on the bearings. Use a depth micrometer and measure the distance
between the top face of motor housing and the bearing cone. Take this measurement
in several locations around the bearing. Compute the average of the measured
dimensions and record the number. Call this Dimension (Y) .
e. Determine the correct thickness of the shim pack that will be installed between the
bearing cone and the coupling gear. The shim pack thickness is equal to Dimension
(X) minus Dimension (Y). Tolerance for the shim pack is 0.10 mm (0.003 inch).
Note: If two shims are required, install the thinner shim next to the coupling gear
when the coupling gear is installed.
9. Use Tooling (C) and a suitable lifting device to remove the main housing from the motor
housing. The weight of the main housing is approximately 191 kg (420 lb).
Note: Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Duo-Cone Conventional Seals - Install".
Note: The rubber seals and all surfaces that contact the seals must be clean and dry. After
installation of the seals, apply clean oil on the contact surfaces of the metal seals.

10. Use Tooling (H) to install Duo-Cone seal (47) in the main housing.
11. Use Tooling (H) to install Duo-Cone seal (52) in the motor housing.
Note: Make sure that the Duo-Cone seals are not scratched or damaged during the assembly
of the main housing or during the assembly of the motor housing. After installation of the
main housing on the motor housing, there will be a small gap between the components. The
gap is caused by the Duo-Cone seals. The gap will be eliminated during installation of the
gear.

12. Use Tooling (C) and a suitable lifting device to position main housing (45) on motor
housing (39). Make sure that the Duo-Cone seals are not scratched or damaged during
installation. The weight of the main housing is approximately 191 kg (420 lb).
13. Install bearing cone (46) .

2020/10/26

Typical Example
14. Place shims (43) in the correct position on the motor housing. If two shims were required,
put the thinner shim in contact with coupling gear (42). Make sure that all of the holes in the
components are in alignment with each other. Put coupling gear (42) in the original position
on the motor housing.
15. Apply Tooling (K) on the threads of bolts (41). Install the bolts to secure coupling gear (42)
in place. Tighten bolts (41) evenly in a crisscross pattern to a torque of 1800 ± 200 N·m
(1327 ± 148 lb ft).
16. Install O-ring seal (40) in the main housing.
8/17

17. Use Tooling (C) and a suitable lifting device to position housings (39) and (45) on Tooling
(A). The combined weight of housings (39) and (45) is approximately 363 kg (800 lb).
18. Install bolts (44) in order to secure the housings to Tooling (A) .
19. Remove the suitable cribbing.
20. Thoroughly clean the mating surface of main housing (39) that contacts ring gear (38).
Apply a bead of Tooling (L) on the mating surface of ring gear (38). Use Tooling (C) and a
suitable lifting device to place ring gear (38) in position on main housing (39). Make sure
that the alignment mark on main housing (39) and ring gear (38) line up with each other. It
may be necessary to use a suitable hammer to seat ring gear (38) on main housing (39) .
