In order to carry out the replacement more easily, apply
a very small quantity of silicone grease on the pressure
packing lips and their seats on the fluid end. It is
necessary to help the sealing lips settle on the plunger.
D) Fit the fluid end back in place and tighten
the bolts with a torque wrench set for the
value indicated in the table on page 17 and
in the sequence incicated here below.
