Service Magazine SEPD0682, 12 May 2003, "New Front Crankshaft Seals and New Rear Crankshaft
Seals are Now in Production". Disregard this article. See the article that follows.

Description of Change: A new front crankshaft seal and a new rear crankshaft seal are now in
production. Production for both seals started 9January 2003. These new seals are for the front and rear
sealing journals of the crankshaft. The new seals incorporate a one piece seal/wear sleeve
combination. The new crankshaft seals have a redesigned wear sleeve that has a flanged face. This
new flanged face rotates with the crankshaft in order to keep dirt away from the sealing lip. This will
provide better control of contaminants.

The removal procedure for the new seals has been changed, from the former seal design because of
the new flanged face on the wear sleeve. The seal face is blocked or hidden by the new flanged face
on the wear sleeve. Refer to the section "Removal Procedure" and table 2 for the required removal
tools. The assembly procedure for the new seals has not changed from the former seal design. Refer to
section "Installation Procedure" and table 3 for the required tools for assembly.

Adaptable To: The new crankshaft front seal and the new rear seal is adaptable to the above Machine
Engines: 3406, 3408, 3412, 3456, C15 and C16. The new crankshaft seals are a direct replacement for
the former seals. Refer to table 1 below for the new part numbers and the former part numbers.

NOTICE

Keep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.

Note: The seal and the wear sleeve must be replaced at the same time. Once the seal and the wear
sleeve are separated, these components cannot be used again. Refer to Special Instruction,
SMHS8508, "Special Handling Information and Installation Instructions for Crankshaft Seal Groups
That Have Hydrodynamic Grooves In the Sealing Lip" before the seal is serviced.

Note: Do not use any type of lubricant during the installation of the crankshaft seal and the
wear sleeve.

NOTICE

The front and rear seals and wear sleeves have different spiral grooves
in the seal. Because of this type of design, the front seal group for an
engine is different from the rear seal group. If a seal group is installed
on the wrong end of the engine, oil can actually be taken out of the
engine instead of moving oil back into the engine.

Crankshaft seal installation

Note: Install the seal with the directional arrow outward in order to show the direction of the
crankshaft rotation.

1. Before installation of the crankshaft seal and the wear sleeve, inspect the crankshaft for
scratches. Also, inspect the crankshaft for any distortion on the surface that may lead to an out
of round condition. Use a polishing cloth in order to remove any imperfections on the
crankshaft.

2. Use 4C-9500 Quick Cure Primer to clean the outside diameter of the crankshaft.

diameter of the wear sleeve.
