5.2.2. Tighten all hold-down bolts before checking

the alignment.
5.2.3. If re-alignment is necessary, always move the

motor. Shim as required.
5.2.4. Parallel misalignment - shafts with axis parallel

but not concentric. Place dial indicator on one hub

and rotate this hub 360° while taking readings on the

outside diameter of the other hub. Parallel alignment

occurs when Total Indicator Reading is .005", or less.
5.2.5. Angular misalignment – shafts with axis con-

centric but not parallel. Place dial indicator on one

hub and rotate this hub 360° while taking readings

on the face of the other hub. Angular alignment is

achieved when Total Indicator Reading is .005", or

less.
5.2.6. Final alignment is achieved when parallel and

angular requirements are satisfied with motor hold-

down bolts tight.

CAUTION: ALWAYS RECHECK BOTH

ALIGNMENTS AFTER MAKING

ANY ADJUSTMENT.

6. Rotation:

6.1. Correct rotation is right-hand (clockwise when

viewed from the motor end). Switch power on and

off quickly. Observe shaft rotation. To change rota-

tion:
6.1.1. Single-phase: Refer to wiring diagram on mo-

tor.
6.1.2. Three-phase: Interchange any two power sup-

ply leads.

7. Operation:

7.1. Before starting, pump must be primed (free of air

and suction pipe full of liquid) and discharge valve

partially open.

CAUTION: PUMPED LIQUID PROVIDES

LUBRICATION. IF PUMP IS RUN DRY,

ROTATING PARTS WILL SEIZE AND

MECHANICAL SEAL WILL BE

DAMAGED. DO NOT OPERATE AT

OR NEAR ZERO FLOW. ENERGY

IMPARTED TO THE LIQUID IS

CONVERTED INTO HEAT. LIQUID

MAY FLASH TO VAPOR. ROTATING

PARTS REQUIRE LIQUID TO PREVENT

SCORING OR SEIZING.

7.2. Make complete check after unit is run under operat-

ing conditions and temperatures has stabilized. Check

for expansion of piping. On frame-mounted units

coupling alignment may have changed due to the

temperature differential between pump and motor.

Recheck alignment.

8. Maintenance:

8.1. Close-Coupled Units: Bearings are located in and are

part of the motor. For lubrication procedure, refer to

motor manufacturer’s instructions.

8.2. Frame-Mounted Units:

8.2.1. Bearing frame should be regreased every 2,000

hours or 3 month interval, whichever occurs first.

Use a #2 sodium or lithium based grease. Fill until

grease comes out of relief fittings, or lip seals, then

wipe off excess.
8.2.2. Follow motor and coupling manufacturer’s

lubrication instructions.
8.2.3. Alignment must be rechecked after any main-

tenance work involving any disturbance of the unit.

9. Disassembly:

Complete disassembly of the unit will be described. Pro-

ceed only as far as required to perform the maintenance

work needed.
9.1. Turn off power.
9.2. Drain system. Flush if necessary.
9.3. Close-Coupled Units: Remove motor hold-down

bolts.

Frame-Mounted Units: Remove coupling, spacer, cou-

pling guard and frame hold-down bolts.
9.4. Disassembly of Liquid End:

9.4.1. Remove casing bolts (370).
9.4.2. Remove back pull-out assembly from casing

(100).
9.4.3. Unscrew impeller nut (304) with a socket

wrench.

CAUTION: DO NOT INSERT SCREWDRIVER

BETWEEN IMPELLER VANES TO

PREVENT ROTATION.

It may be necessary to use a strap wrench around

the impeller if impacting the socket wrench will not

loosen the impeller bolt. Hold the shaft on frame

mounted units.
9.4.4. Use two pry bars, 180° apart, to remove im-

peller (101) from shaft.
9.4.5. Remove impeller key (178) and seal spring.
9.4.6. With two pry bars 180° apart inserted through

the windows of the motor adapter (108), pry on the

end of the shaft sleeve (126). The mechanical seal

rotary unit (383) will come off with the sleeve.
9.4.7. Remove the seal housing to adapter bolts

(370H). Remove seal housing (184) together with

stationary seal parts.
9.4.8. Place seal housing on flat surface and press out

stationary seal parts.

9.5. Disassembly of bearing frame:

9.5.1. Remove bolts (370C) and bearing cover (134).

Slide V-ring deflector (123) off shaft.
9.5.2. Remove shaft assembly from frame (228).
9.5.3. Remove lip seals (333A) from bearing frame

and bearing cover if worn and are being replaced.
9.5.4. Straighten tang in lockwasher (382). Remove

locknut (136) and lockwasher.
9.5.5. Use bearing puller or arbor press to remove

ball bearings (112 & 168).
