7.1 OVERVIEW
This section describes the removal, inspection, and reinstallation (as required for
maintenance and repair) of the Hale pump and gearbox components. Follow the dis-
assembly instructions in the order in which they appear in this section. At any point in
the disassembly process, the unit can be reassembled by following the instructions in
the reverse.
Service should be performed by a trained and qualified service technician, or your
authorized Hale Products service representative. Be sure you have sufficient knowl-
edge, experience and the proper tools.
Wherever there is a requirement for new parts, it is recommended to use only Hale
authorized replacement parts for optimum safety of the equipment and its operators
and to limit “downtime.”
