1. Remove the piping to the ports and remove the

capscrews securing the pump to the bracket

(See

Figure 15). Support the pump with an overhead hoist if

possible.

CAUTION !

Do not place your fingers between the pump

mounting flange and the face of the bracket.

Using extreme caution, pull the inner magnet

away from the outer magnet (see figure 16). 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 at-

tract any iron or steel object.

2. The canister will probably be full of liquid, therefore use

care while removing from the pump and pull it straight

off.

3. Insert a brass bar through a port between two rotor teeth

and loosen the capscrew holding the inner magnet to

the shaft

(See Figure 17). Slide the washer, lock washer

and inner magnet off the shaft. Do not forget this is a

very strong magnet. If pump disassembly is required,

remove second external retaining ring.

4. Do not remove the o-ring unless it is bad, especially

if PTFE (Derivative) Encapsulated. If a new o-ring is

required, follow instructions in the

ASSEMbLY section

on

page 11.

5. 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

(See Figure 18)

and separating the bracket from the motor or bearing

carrier. Loosen the setscrews on the motor or bearing

carrier shaft and pull the outer magnet assembly off. 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 then press the shaft and bearings out of

the housing. Remove the external retaining rings from

the shaft to remove the bearings.
