 1. Install bearing (1) in housing with tooling (A). Install bearing (1) so ring (2) makes
contact with bottom of bore.

2. Install sleeve in carrier (5) with extension (3) on sleeve in position in groove (4) in
carrier bore.

3. Install bearing (8) in gear (7). Put gear (7) in position on impeller (6). Install the bolts
and plates on opposite side that hold the gear (7) to the impeller (6). Tighten the bolts to
a torque of 20 ± 1 lb.ft. (25 ± 1 N·m).

4. Install carrier (5) on impeller (6).

5. Heat bearing (10) to a maximum temperature of 275°F (135°C). Install bearing (10) on
shaft (9). Install seal ring on shaft (9).

6. Install shaft in carrier.

7. Install ring (12) in groove in shaft and ring (11) in groove in carrier.

8. Turn impeller on opposite side. Put stator (13) in position on shaft. Install ring (14) in
https://sis2.cat.com/#/detail?
groove in shaft. Install bolts (15) and tighten to a torque of 20 ± 1 lb.ft. (25 ± 1 N·m).
