Replacing With A New Side Seal

1. If replacing the side seal, select the appropriate side seal from the side seal groove length rank marked on the rotor.

Note

• If a new side seal is inserted, measuring the clearance is not recommended to maintain an appropriate side seal clearance value.

Reusing The Side Seal

1. Measure the side seal and corner seal clearance and verify that it doesn’t exceed the maximum.

(1) Assemble the corner seal.

(2) Insert a 0.15 mm {0.0059 in}feeler gauge into the tapered surface side of the side seal as shown in the figure, and fix the side seal by pressing uniformly so that it contacts the inner side of the groove (straight surface).

Caution

• Press the feeler gauge firmly on both ends of the side seal.

(3) Measure the clearance between both ends of the side seal and the corner seal using a feeler gauge.

(4) If the sum of the clearances on both ends exceeds the maximum, replace with a new side seal by selecting one from the side seal selection table.
