10. Using a 010 to 015 inch head gasket, install head and

idler assembly on pump Pump head and casing were

marked before disassembly to insure proper reassembly

If not, be sure idler pin, which is offset in pump head,

is positioned toward and equal distance between port

connections to allow for proper flow of liquid through

pump
Tighten head capscrews evenly
Remove tapered installation sleeve from the shaft

11. If pump is equipped with jacketed head plate, install at

this time along with new gasket
If pump was equipped with a relief valve and was

removed during disassembly, install on head with new

gaskets Relief valve adjusting screw cap must always

point toward suction port

Refer to Figures 1 & 2 on

Page 1. For relief valve repair or adjustments, see

Pressure Relief Valve Instructions, Page 9.

12. Slide inner spacer collar over shaft with recessed end

facing rotor H, HL, Q and M size bearing spacer collars

are not recessed
Place pair of half round rings on shaft and slide inner

bearing spacer collar over half round rings to lock them

in place There is no pair of half round rings on H, HL, Q

and M size pumps

Refer to Figure 6, page 6.

13. Press lip seal, lip facing end of shaft, in inner end cap

and insert end cap through shaft end of bracket Turn

end cap clockwise, looking at shaft end, until it engages

threads End cap spanner wrench holes must be facing

rotor Turn end cap with spanner wrench until it projects

slightly from opening on side of bracket End cap must

not be turned so far that lip seal drops off end of spacer

collar on shaft or end cap becomes disengaged from

threads

Refer to Figure 6, page 6.

14. Pack ball bearing with multi-purpose grease, NLGI

#2 Place on shaft and push or gently drive in place in

bracket

15. Press lip seal, lip facing end of shaft, in outer end cap

and insert end cap in bracket Turn end cap in bracket

until it is tight against bearing

Refer to Figure 6, page 6.

16. Put lockwasher and locknut on shaft Insert length of

hardwood or brass through port opening between rotor

teeth to keep shaft from turning
Tighten locknut to 50-70 ft – lbs Torque (H-HL) or 100-

130 ft – lbs Torque (K-LL) or 170-190 ft – lbs Torque

(Q-M) Bend one tang of lockwasher into slot of locknut

If tang does not line up with slot, tighten locknut until it

does Failure to tighten locknut or engage lockwasher

tang could result in early bearing failure and cause

damage to rest of pump
Remove length of hardwood or brass from port opening
Adjust pump end clearance

Refer to Thrust Bearing

Adjustment.
Lubricate grease fitting over seal chamber with petroleum

jelly, petrolatum (Vasoline) or other similar low melting

point lubricant Lubricate all other grease fittings with

multi-purpose grease, NLGI #2

THRUST BEARING ADJUSTMENT

1. Loosen setscrews over outer and inner end caps Two

for H and HL size pumps, four for all other sizes

2. Turn inner end cap clockwise, viewed from shaft end, until

it projects slightly from bracket exposing approximately

three threads

3. Turn outer end cap clockwise until rotor is tight against

head and rotor shaft cannot be turned

4. Make a reference mark on bracket end, opposite a

notch on outer end cap Back off outer end cap required

number of notches

Refer to Figure 11.

5. End clearances set per Step 4 are adequate for

viscosities up to 750 SSU (SAE 20 lube oil at room

temperature) Higher viscosity liquids require additional

end clearances
As a general guideline, for viscosities between 750 and

7500 SSU (heavier lube oils) double the amount of end

clearance indicated in Step 4; for viscosities between

7500 and 75,000 SSU (e g , resins) triple the amount
For specific recommendations for end clearances for

viscosity or for operating temperatures above 225ºF,

check with your Viking representative or consult the

factory

6. Tighten inner end cap with a spanner wrench Tap

spanner wrench lightly but

DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN as

it will only damage the threads

7. Tighten all setscrews that hold inner and outer end caps

to prevent their turning in bracket

8. Rotor and shaft should turn smoothly by hand one

complete revolution If rotor and shaft doesn’t turn

smoothly, go back and repeat Thrust Bearing Adjustment
