Assembly Aids
Refer to the D & A manual for instruction in the use of any assembly aids.The fluid being sealed is the proper lubricant for use with lip seals and the mating components of lip seals.It will not be necessary to obtain an assembly aid to remove supplier-applied sealant build-up if proper tooling care and contamination control techniques are followed.Assembly Tooling
Types of Lip Seal Tooling
When installing lip-type seals, it is important that proper tooling and tooling care need to be followed.Refer to the respective D & A manual for the tooling used to install the lip-type seal.Tooling - Care
Before using the tooling check the tool for damage. Tools with damage such as nicks, gouges, missing material, or deformation must be replaced immediately.Tools should be cleaned daily to remove contamination. If contamination is present, use a clean lint-free wipe to remove the debris. To maintain cleanliness and prevent tool damage, storage fixtures should be cleaned as a part of daily 5S activities.Note: 5S activities refer to Caterpillar Production System (CPS) For Dealers related to "Sort, Set, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain".For more details refer to:Referencehttps://dealer.cat.com/cda/files/2498665/7/030%20R_Module %2017%205S_Visual%20Workplace%20v3.pptDo not use a chemical remover to remove supplier-applied sealant build-up from the seal tooling. Various chemicals can deteriorate the coatings on the lip-seals.Refer to "Loctite Maintenance and Solutions Heavy Equipment Guide for Cat Dealers" to determine which chemical removers can be used.Cleaned tooling should be stored in ergonomically designed designated areas that prevent damage to the tools.Tooling - Inspection
All tooling should be inspected before use for damage. An improperly maintained tool can cause seal damage and increase the risk of leaking due to improper seating of the seal. Tools with damage such as sharp edges, nicks, burrs, "mushroomed" driver heads (applicable to lip seal drivers), should be reconditioned or replaced prior to further use.Tooling - Storage
To help protect the seal tooling from damage, it is important that proper lip-seal tooling storage needs to be provided. Placing seal tooling on a metal surface can severely damage the tool due to metal-to-metal contact.Seal tooling should be stored on a soft, forgiving surface such as nylon, HDPE, and so on.Do not store tools in a basket to avoid the damage to the tools critical. Proper storage facilities must be provided to all workstations to reduce risk of damage to tool.Regular inspection of the storage surface and/or racks is required and shall accompany the maintenance schedule for the seal tooling.Properly label tooling to reduce risk of misuse or misplacement.Tooling - Maintenance & Damage Reporting
All seal-specific tooling should be placed on a routine maintenance schedule similar to the torque-tooling schedule.A formal reporting process shall be established at every dealer to report damaged tooling.To reduce the risk of downtime and use of an unapproved tool due to tooling damage, replacement tooling shall be in inventory and available for immediate use. Damaged tools should be replaced immediately since using a damaged tool increases the risk of seal damage or leaks.Preassembly Inspection Of Critical Components
