reassemBly:
1)
Clean all parts thoroughly before reassembly.
2)
Apply liquid soap to the outer surface of the rubber cup (4)
on the stationary seat (9). Insert the stationary seal seat into
the seal adapter plate. Make sure that the smooth face of the
ceramic seat is facing towards the front of the pump. Push
this assembly into the adapter, using hand pressure only.
3)
Assemble the adapter (6) and handle (5) onto the engine
using the bolts and washers. Make sure that the flinger (11)
is on the shaft.
note: There may be more than one position that the adapter
can be bolted to the engine but only one position is
correct (refer to Fig. 3).
important: Be careful not to damage the ceramic seat
or
shaft, when assembling the adapter to the engine.
4)
Replace the Seal:
- The sleeve (10) may have a chamfer on the inside diameter
at one end only, or at both ends. If the chamfer is only on
one end, the chamfer end must be towards the engine. Slide
it onto the shaft.
- Make sure both faces of the seal are clean, then slide seal
(8) onto the sleeve.
5)
Screw on the impeller (2), clockwise.

cause
Air leak in suction line.
The suction and/or discharge line(s) may be blocked, or
the valve(s) are closed, faulty and/or blocked.
End of suction line is not submerged.
Total head is too high for this pump to work against.
Excessive suction lift*.
6)
Replace the gasket (3) and the washers. Then assemble
the casing onto the adapter. Use thread locking / sealing
compound on casing bolts to prevent leaks.
precaution: Check to see that the impeller rotates freely
in the casing.
7)
Reconnect the suction and discharge lines. Use a thread
compound and make sure that the connections are tight.
fig. 2
Make sure suction hose is double-clamped at joints, clamps
are tight, fittings have thread compound and are tight, no
nicks or cuts in hose.
Check to see that the lines and valves are in good work-
ing order.
Increase its length, or move pump closer to source of
liquid.
Reduce total head or use a higher-head pump.
Move the pump closer to liquid source.
