Pump Service

This centrifugal pump requires little or no service
other than reasonable care and periodic cleaning.
Occasionally, however, a shaft seal may become
damaged and must be replaced. The procedure as
outlined below will enable you to replace the seal.
NOTICE: Pumps use mechanical seals with a rubber
seat ring or a sealing O-Ring. These seals are completely
interchangeable .
NOTICE: The highly polished and lapped faces of this
seal are easily damaged. Read instructions and handle
the seal with care.
Some models are equipped with an impeller screw,
which has a left hand thread. Before unscrewing the
impeller, remove the impeller screw.
Removal of Old Seal
1. After unscrewing impeller, carefully remove rotating
part of seal by prying up on sealing washer, using
two screwdrivers (see Figure 5A). Use care not to
scratch motor shaft.
2. Remove seal plate from motor and place on flat
surface, face down. Use a screwdriver to push
ceramic seat out from seal cavity (see Figure 5B).
