Service Magazine SEPD0930, 03 March 2008, "New Seals in the Main Hydraulic Pump Prevent Oil Leaks from the Pump Shaft". Disregard this article. See the article that follows.

Description of Change: The new lip type seal for the pump shaft in new main hydraulic pumps has increased durability. In a cold condition, the former lip type seal would fail and oil would leak from the pump shaft. The new seal prevents the oil leaks from the pump shaft.

Adaptable To: The new 295-9695 Lip Type Seal replaces the former 242-6917 Lip Type Seal in the hydraulic pumps that are listed in Table 1. The effectivity of the new seal is listed in Table 2. The new seal is adaptable to the models that are listed.

Install the new lip type seal if the former lip type seal is leaking oil at the pump shaft. The location of the new seal is shown in Illustration 1.

Note: Make sure that the correct warm-up procedure is performed. Performing the correct procedure in extremely cold conditions can prevent failure of the seals. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual that is appropriate for your machine.
