PUMP REMOVAL

Read all of the instructions before proceeding with

disassembly of the coupling and/or pump.
1.
Remove piping from the ports and remove the mounting

capscrews securing the pump to the bracket (See

Figure 9). Support larger pumps with an overhead hoist

if possible.

2. The canister will probably be full of liquid. Use care while

removing from the pump and pull straight off. Remove

the external snap ring (closest to end of shaft) and slide

off the inner magnet assembly (See

Figure 11). Use

caution, as this is a very strong magnet.

3. Do not remove the canister O-ring unless it is damaged,

especially if it is PTFE (Derivative) Encapsulated. If a

new O-ring is required, follow instructions in the

PUMP

ASSEMBLY section, page 10.

4. You should be able to visually inspect the outer magnets

from the end of the bracket. If removal is necessary,

start by removing the (4) capscrews and separating

the bracket from the motor or bearing carrier (See

Figure 12). Loosen setscrews in outer magnet assembly

to pull assembly off shaft. If the unit features a bearing

carrier, the bearings should not require maintenance

since they are sealed. If necessary, disassemble

by removing the single internal retaining ring (See

Figure 8) then press the shaft and bearings out of the

housing. Remove the external retaining rings from the

shaft to remove bearings.

CAUTION !

Use extreme caution, when pulling the inner

magnet away from the outer magnet (See

Figure 18, page 11). Do not place your fingers

between the pump mounting flange and the

face of the bracket. If you do not completely

pull the pump out it will snap back and could

pinch a finger or hand. Once the inner magnet

is removed from the bracket be careful setting

it down as it will attract any iron or steel object.

(2) Required for SG-807 with MD-A Coupling

(4) REQUIRED FOR ALL SG-804 & SG-805, & SG-807 WITH

MD-B COUPLING

DANGER !

Before opening any Viking pump liquid

chamber (pumping chamber, reservoir, relief

valve adjusting cap fitting etc.) Be sure:
1. That any pressure in the chamber has

been completely vented through the

suction or discharge lines or other

appropriate openings or connections.

2. That the driving means (motor, turbine,

engine, etc.) has been “locked out” or

made non- operational so that it cannot

be started while work is being done on

pump.

3. That you know what liquid the pump

has been handling and the precautions

necessary to safely handle the liquid.

Obtain a material safety data sheet

(MSDS) for the liquid to be sure these

precautions are understood.

Failure to follow above listed precautionary

measures may result in serious injury or

death.
