unit of the mechanical seal with a lubricant com-
patible with the seal elastomers. Carefully slide the
rotary unit of the mechanical seal down the shaft.
Rotate the seal to locate the pin on the bottom of
the seal with the holes in the shaft sleeve. Cycle seal
up and down to lubricate o-ring and prevent seal
from sticking to shaft. See step 8 in Figure 5.
