Test Procedure
1. Connect run-dry hoses to air test apparatus
2. Verify shut off valve is closed
3. Connect air hose
4. Fill run-dry with 7PSI of air (more than 7PSI pressure can damage seal)
5. Close valve, disconnect air hose.
6. Let sit 5 minutes, rotate shaft by hand a few revolutions.
A. If pressure drops, check hose connections. Spray soapy water around shaft and run-dry lip seal, if
no leak is detected suspect mechanical seal. Carefully remove mechanical seal and inspect/clean all
surfaces. Check o-rings for nicks or tears. Replace seal, spring and impeller. Repeat test.
B. If no leaks detected, release pressure and continue with rebuild.

2. Move indicator to bearing cover
or drive end bracket and measure
dimension B. (If oil lubed frame,
make sure gasket is in place on
bearing cover.) This is the shim
gap. If shim gap is less than .007”
(.005 for F16X (K)), recheck the

than .007” (.005 for F16X (K), stop
because something is wrong.
