I am getting ready to remove the rock shaft housing on my 720 to replace a leaking power shaft oil seal, and I have some questions.
1)How do you remove the hydraulic oil lines coming from the pump? I have unbolted the retainers but because the lines a ridged steel, they won't flex and back out of the housing.
2)Will a come-along attached to a 4X4 resting on and between two 2x4 rafter roof trusses support the weight of the housing? I used this to lift the pony motor, and had no problems.
3)I have a 620 with an original JD front end loader, would this have enough power to lift the housing and using a front end loader make it easier to reattach and realign it later?
4)What is the correct direction for putting in the power shaft oil seal? The manual says nothing about how to install the seal. Also I read somewhere that it is advisable to use two seals. has anyone done this before?
5 If anyone has pictures of removing the housing , can you please post them.
