APPLICATIONS
CHEMICAL - Industrial Motor Pump Unit Circulating,
Transferring and Filtering of Chemicals, Plating
Solutions, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics and Farm
Chemicals, Emptying and Filling Carboys, Vats, Tanks,
Barrels or Entire Systems.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION - Pump may be installed in any position.
Rotation of motor determines the location of the pump
intake. The motor is normally wired for clockwise rotation
when looking at pump cover, with inlet port on the right.
SELF-PRIMING - Vertical, dry suction lift of 10'. Pump
will produce suction lift up to 22' when wet. BE SURE
SUCTION LINES ARE AIRTIGHT or pump will not self-
prime.
DISCHARGE - When transferring liquids further than
25', use I" ID discharge Iine.
RUNNING DRY - Unit depends on liquid pumped for
lubrication. DO NOT RUN DRY FOR MORE THAN 30
WARNING
!Explosion hazard. Do not use where flammable
vapors are present. Do not pump solvents,
thinners or gasoline. To do so can cause an
explosion which can result in injury or death.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
DISASSEMBLY
TO REPLACE IMPELLER
1. Remove end cover cap screws, end cover, gasket
and wearplate.
2. Grasp impeller hub with water pump pliers and with-
draw impeller from body. Check seal and internal
parts, for wear. Replace worn parts if necessary.
TO REPLACE SEAL ASSEMBLY
3. Loosen adaptor clamp nut and remove pump head
from motor Use a screwdriver to spread the clamp
slighty to facilitate removal.
4. See above Step #1.
5. Remove body, gasket and wearplate from adaptor.
Push impeller from body bore.
6. Remove seal liner and seal by pressing from motor
end of adaptor.
7. Remove seal from liner. Check all parts for wear.
Replace if questionable.
ASSEMBLY
TO REPLACE IMPELLER
1. Coat body bore and end of impeller extended insert
with a light film of water pump grease. Align detent
in impeller extended insert with keyway in shaft.
Depress the two impeller blades which fit under the
cam, and carefully push the impeller into the body
bore. Use a screwdriver in the drain slot area to push
the neoprene slinger up onto the end of the extended
impeller. Rotate the impeller in a clockwise direction
to assure the impeller blades are in the correct
position for easy starting.
2. Replace wearplate, gasket, end cover and
secure with end cover cap screws.
TO REPLACE SEAL ASSEMBLY
3. Install seal liner in bore of adaptor, aligning bolt
holes carefully.
4. Dip seal in water for lubrication and push into seal
liner bore with lip facing outwards. Wipe a thin film of
grease on lip of seal.
5. Install wearplate against liner, install gasket, align
bolt holes.
6. Push the impeller into the body and rotate the
impeller in a clockwise direction to align blades for
correct direction of rotation. Place the body impeller
assembly over the gasket and wearplate, and
carefully insert the impeller extended insert through
the seal.
7. Install the four capscrews through the adaptor flange
and screw into threaded holes in body flange.
Tighten bolts evenly and securely.
8. Repeat Step #2.
9. Align the tab in the slinger bore with the keyway in
the shaft and push the slinger part way onto the
shaft.
10. Align the detent in the impeller extended insert with
the keyway in the shaft and push the pump head
onto the motor hub, firmly against the motor. Tighten
the adaptor clamp nut just enough to prevent the
pump head from turning on the motor hub. If too
tight, motor bearing will seize the shaft and become
damaged during operation. Attach short lengths of
hose to suction and discharge ports and place both
hose ends in a bucket of water, before plugging
motor in, to check operation.
