    PRIOR TO CUTTING AND WELDING, UNITS SHALL BE SHUT DOWN.
    THE AREA SHALL BE MONITORED TO ENSURE THAT NO EXPLOSIVE
    LEVELS OF GAS ARE PRESENT. REQUIRED "HOT WORK" PERMITS
    SHALL BE OBTAINED. MONITORING FOR SAFE CONDITIONS SHALL
    CONTINUE DURING ALL REWORK. FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD
    RESULT IN FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION, WITH POSSIBLE BODILY
    INJURIES AND PROPERTY DAMAGES.

    SITE PREPARATION:
    1. Thoroughly clean all floors, package interiors, engines and ancillary equipment of all
    combustibles.
    2. Keep all combustible floors and structure watered down or otherwise protected. Relocate
    all movable combustibles at least 35 feet from work. Cover nonmovable combustibles
    with suitable fireproof sheeting or shields.
    3. Place fireproof sheeting or shields below the work to reduce the splatter of sparks.
    4. Cover all wall and floor openings, especially sumps and drains.
    5. Cover all filters, screens and similar systems that are impregnated with hydrocarbon
    deposits.
    6. Where possible pressurize the weld area with clean outside air to prevent induction of
    hazardous atmosphere. Monitor the intake air for hydrocarbons and shut down the system
    at the first indication of hydrocarbons; evacuate the area.
    If the possible hazards cannot be eliminated, it will be necessary to remove the air inlet duct and
    replace the clip in a safe atmosphere area.

    PROCEDURE: (SEE FIGURE 1.)


    1. Ensure that all gas supply to the package is shut off, firmly secured, locked and tagged.
    2. Remove screw, washer and nut to loosen the seal oil line support clip ( figure 1).
    3. Remove seal oil pressure line Cap and store in a clean area.
    4. Cap flexible hose and main seal oil pump outlet. Clean surface of air inlet duct to remove
    any oil deposits.
    5. Cut support clip P/N 115100-7 and grind surface smooth. Mark the position of the
    removed support clip.
    6. Prior to welding, clean the air inlet surface with appropriate welding flux.

    CLEAN A SUITABLE AREA FOR THE GROUND CABLE. ATTACH THE


    ELECTRIC ARC GROUND AS CLOSE TO THE WELD AREA AS POSSI-
    BLE.

    8. Clean the weld surface as required. Apply zinc rich primer, allowing 30 minutes drying
    time, prior to applying the finish paint.
    9. Ensure the protection caps have been removed. Install new O-ring and reinstall seal oil
    pressure line and flexible hose.
    10. Attach seal oil pressure line to support clip.
