^ Always replace O-rings, oil seals and gaskets.
^ After removing seals/gaskets, examine the contact surfaces on housings or shafts for burrs and signs of damage and repair before reinstalling.
- Before installing a radial shaft seal lubricate the outside diameter with gear oil and fill the space between the sealing lips (arrow) halfway with G 052 128 A1.
^ The open side of an oil seal faces towards the oil.
^ Always use transmission oil. Other lubricants will cause the hydraulics to malfunction.
^ Check gear oil level after installing and if necessary top off.
