This document provides instructions for disassembling and assembling the piston pump of a 623G wheel scraper. Some key steps include:
1. Marking all mating components for alignment during assembly.
2. Removing various seals, springs, spools, and other internal parts from the pump housing and head.
3. Checking the preload on bearings during assembly by measuring clearance between the pump head and housing.
4. Cleaning all parts thoroughly before assembly and applying a light oil film. Precise alignment of marked components is important.
