REASSEMBLY
• Clean and inspect all parts before reassembly.
1. Inspect seal seat bore for wear and debris, clean and
replace as necessary.
NOTICE: MECHANICAL SEAL MUST BE REPLACED
WHENEVER SEAL HAS BEEN REMOVED.
FOLLOW SEAL MANUFACTURER’S IN-
STRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
2. If necessary, seat ring may be lubricated with water or
glycerin to aid in installation. DO NOT contaminate
the seal face. Fully and squarely install the stationary
seat into the adapter. With a clean, lint free cloth,
CAREFULLY wipe the seat face clean of debris. DO
NOT damage the seal seat face.
3. Reinstall the motor adapter on the motor, making
sure that the motor shaft does not dislocate or dam-
age the stationary seal seat.
4. Fully and squarely install the seal rotary assembly
against the stationary seat. Be sure rotating seal face
does not drop out of holding collar and DO NOT
damage seal face.
5. On three phase units, impeller MUST be installed
with LOCTITE ® “Purple”. Hold shaft from rotating,
as explained in the “DISASSEMBLY” section of the
manual, and install impeller by turning CLOCKWISE
until tight against motor shaft shoulder.
6. Replace diffuser. Align to prevent impeller rub.
7. Install new diaphragm and new diffuser seal ring.
8. Install motor and liquid end into casing.
9. Check impeller for binding by rotating the motor
shaft. If binding occurs, loosen casing bolts, readjust
diffuser until impeller hub turns freely. Retighten cas-
ing bolts in a crossing pattern.
10. Replace all drain plugs and motor end components.
11. Reprime and operate according to instructions in the
“OPERATION” section of this manual.
