Remove the Cover/Idler Gear Assembly

Prior to removing the cover, the general position should be marked in relationship to the housing. Once done, remove the cover bolts
and the cover.
Remove the cover gasket.
Note: On pumps with relief valves, the cover can be removed with the relief valve still mounted onto the cover.
WARNING
When removing the cover, the idler gear will generally stay on the pin. Avoid tilting the cover downward as the idler may slide off,
causing injury or damage.

Separate the Drive Module Assembly from the Housing

Remove the screws that hold the bracket to the housing.

The drive module assembly can be separated from the housing. Caution should be used, as parts can be heavy. The use of a lifting
device may be required.
Remove the bracket gasket.

Attach the Drive Module Assembly to the New Housing

Attach the foot to the new housing with the appropriate port angle alignment using the hex head bolts provided with the kit.
Place the gasket on the bracket, aligning the gasket holes to allow venting through the seal flush hole. Note the location of the flush.
Slide the drive module into the housing. Do not bolt the housing and drive module together at this time. The bracket may need to be
rotated.
Attach the bearing carrier to the foot with the hex head bolts supplied with the kit.

Rotating the Bracket

The standard bracket for the GlobalGear® pumps provides a vent to the seal chamber from one of the housing’s ports (typically the
suction port).
If rotation of the bracket is required to provide a vent then perform the following.
• Remove the hex head bolts that attach the bracket to the bearing carrier
• Rotate the bracket to the appropriate location
• The bracket gasket must rotate with the bracket
• Re-attach the bracket to the bearing carrier and housing using the hex head bolts

Install Cover and Idler Assembly

Place the idler assembly on the cover. Ensure the idler rotates freely.
Place the gasket on the cover.
Tilt the top of the cover away from the pump until the crescent can be fitted into the rotor I.D. Then rotate the idler until its teeth mesh
with the rotor teeth.
Assemble with cover bolts.

Install Ports

For GG15 – GG90 size pumps, both housing styles (90° and 180°) use bolt-on ports, so reuse the ports that are attached to the original
180° housing.
• Remove the bolts or studs that hold the ports to the original housing
• Remove the ports from the original housing
• Install new port gaskets
• Assemble the original ports to the pump, using the original port fasteners
For GG120 – GG250 size pumps, the 180° housings use integrally cast ports, so use a new port kit, and refer to the instructions provided
with that kit.
The end clearances must now be adjusted. Refer to instructions in Service Manual 73.
