REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
NOTE:
Do not spr ead the inner and outer guards more than
necessary for guard removal or installation. Over spreading the
guards may alter their fit and appearance.
Removal
a. Remove the two capscrews that hold the outer (motor side)
coupler guard to the support bracket(s).
b. Spread the outer guard and pull it off the inner guard.
c. Remove the capscrew that holds the inner guard to the
support bracket.
d. Spread the inner guard and pull it over the coupler.
Installation
a. Check coupler alignment before proceeding. Correct if
necessary.
b. Spread the inner guard and place it over the coupler.
c. With the inner guard straddling the support bracket, install a
capscrew through the hole (or slot) in the support bracket
and guard located closest to the pump. Do not tighten the
capscrew.
d. Spread the outer guard and place it over the inner guard.
e. Install the outer guard capscrews by following the step
stated below which pertains to your particular pump:
i. For pumps with a motor saddle support bracket: Ensur e
the outer guard is straddling the support arm, and install
but do not tighten the two remaining capscrews.
ii. For pumps without a motor saddle support bracket:
Insert the spacer washer between the holes located
closest to the motor in the outer guard, and install, but
do not tighten, the two remaining capscrews.
f. Position the outer guard so it is centered around the shaft,
and so there is less than a 1/4" of the motor shaft exposed.
On guards that utilize a slotted support bracket, the inner
guard will have to be positioned so there is only a 1/4" of
the pump shaft exposed.
g. Holding the guard in this position, tighten the three
capscrews.
