Injection Pump
Lapping the Sealing Faces for the Covers of the Suction, Delivery and Spill Valves

Tools: Key to Illustrations:


1 Lapping mandrel 94566 1 Pressure nipple A Fitted cover
1 Lapping mandrel 94567 2 Covers for the valves B Lapping the sealing face
1 Torque wrench with 3 Injection pump on the pump block
socket spanner block C Lapping the sealing face
4 Cap screws on the cover
SF Flat sealing face
SF1 Sealing face with
a slope of 0_ 15’

In case of leakage between cover 2 and pump block 3, although the cap screws 4 have been tightened to the pre-
scribed torque of 60 Nm, it may be possible that the sealing faces are no longer in perfect condition.
Additional tightening of the screws will not solve the problem; the sealing faces will have to be dressed.
Slight damage can be rectified with the lapping mandrels 94566 and 94567.
For lapping the flat sealing faces on the injection pump block, the lapping mandrel 94566 is to be used as shown in
Fig. ’B’.
The cover sealing face and the corresponding lapping mandrel 94567 are tapered by 0_15’ (see Fig. ’C’).
The lapping mandrel 94567 for lapping of the cover sealing face (Fig. ’C’) as well as the lapping mandrel 94566 for
lapping of the flat sealing face on the pump block is to be rotated around its own axis.
In case of a rectification of the lapping faces of the lapping mandrels, these are to be machined accordingly.
Very fine lapping paste must be used for lapping.

Attention Under all circumstances, prevent lapping paste from getting into the pump block!

The threads of the cap screws must be coated with MOLYKOTE paste G before being screwed in. The screws must
be tightened crosswise and in even stages to 60 Nm.
