Instructions to install 8500SKL (seal
and lining kit) |
|
Disassembly

 |
|

- Remove clutch from hub by removing
the 6 allen bolts. Line the access holes up with the allen bolts
to remove the bolts. Apply air pressure to the clutch so the access
holes can be aligned with the allen bolts. Once aligned, remove
air pressure and the clutch will lock-up.
- The clutch will need to be compressed before any removing
and installing any parts.
- To compress the clutch use 2 - 3/8”x3”
bolts with a large flat washer over the access holes. Place the
bolts opposite of each other and compress the clutch evenly. (see
picture) Do not over compress.
- Remove the Cylinder Cap by removing
the 5/16” Locknut, hold the Piston Rod Assembly (on the
lining side) with a 5/8” open end wrench to loosen. Under
the Cylinder Cap is the Seal Washer. Remove it.
- Remove the Dust Seal. (If the dust
seal is blue, also remove the o-ring underneath it.)
- Remove the U-Packing Seal. (Make
a note of how the U-Packing Seal was installed, the “U”
is facing up as the clutch is placed, lining down).
- Remove the Coupling and the O-ring
- Remove the 3 retaining plates by
removing the 6 lining screws.
- If the lining is free, remove it.
If the lining is frozen, the clutch will need to be compressed
a little more.
