Maintenance Required

High Pressure Seal 
(See Replacement 
instructions in this manual)

When water is 
leaking out of 
the weep holes 
closest to the 
inlet

The Torus has two high pressure seals, one in the inlet 
shaft, and one in the cross shaft.  These seals are 
identical; they may leak water at low pressure (under 1000 
psi) and will leak water continuously at operating pressure 
during failure.  If water is leaking out of the weep holes 
closest to the inlet, the inlet seal is damaged.  If the water 
is leaking out of the weep holes furthest from the inlet, the 
cross-shaft seal is damaged and must be replaced.

Lubricant and Storage

Every 100 hours 
of operation

It is recommended to grease the tool every 100 hours of 
operation.  Any multi-purpose NLGI 2 grease is acceptable.  
There are five grease fittings located on the outside of the 
body. No damage will result from over-greasing the tool 
but the operator will likely see any extra grease leaking 
out around the shaft seals under operation.  It is also 
recommended to blow out all internal water passages 
(nozzles, weep holes, inlet) with compressed air after each 
use to maximize the life of internal components.  

Magnetic Brake

When necessary The magnetic brake requires no lubrication or 

maintenance.  If a problem is suspected with the magnetic 
brake assembly, it should be sent to a certified StoneAge 
repair center for service or replacement.

Threaded high pressure 
connections

Before and/or 
After each use

To avoid galling, for pipe thread connections use Parker 
Thread Mate thread sealant  (StoneAge part number 
GP047) and fluorocarbon tape.  For all other threaded 
high pressure connections use anti-seize lubricant alone.  
StoneAge recommends Swagelok Blue Goop (StoneAge 
part number GP 043).  

Threaded fasteners

When necessary It is VERY IMPORTANT that all threaded fasteners be 

reassembled per the following procedure: 

A) Fasteners labeled with a specific Blue Loctite (GP180) 
note are to be reassembled and torque as noted. 

B) All other fasteners are to be reassembled using Blue 
Goop (GP 043) and torque if specified.

WARNING 

The use of gloves when handling the tool after operation is recommended as the body at the pulling ring end 

may reach temperatures of up to 160°F depending on operating conditions.  Let the tool cool down before 

disassembling for any maintenance procedures.
