28 Install the spherical bearing retainer onto the crankshaft.
29 Heat and install spherical bearing adapter onto the spherical bearing.
30 Lift the crankshaft with a lifting eye screwed into the end of the crankshaft and lower into the power frame (the
power frame should still be on its side with the input end up). Rotating the crankshaft while lowering will aid
the installation. Tap the spherical bearing adapter to complete the installation.
31 Re-install the crankshaft cover using silicone seal as a gasket.
32 Install the eight in, socket head cap screws holding the crankshaft cover to the outside of the frame.
33 Install the four caps crews and main bearing retainer washers on the inside of the frame through to the
crankshaft cover.
34 Re-install the rotary union, crossheads, connecting rods, and gearbox.
35 Remount pump on skid or trailer.
36 If new bearings were installed, repeat the new pump run-in procedure.
Do not drive against rollers or bearing cage. Drive only against the bearing race, as severe damage
to the bearings could occur.
When reassembling the crankshaft assembly, make sure to follow these steps:
1 Freeze the outer bearing races or pack in dry ice before assembling in the frame.
2 Heat the roller bearings (straight and spherical) before installing on crankshaft. (250 F max.
oven or oil bath)
Failure to follow these direction may result in serious damage to the pump.
