1. GENERAL
1.1. INTRODUCTION
This manual has been prepared to assist you in understanding the construction and
the correct methods of disassembly and assembly for your new Roto-Jet pump.
The Roto-Jet pump is the simplest and most reliable high pressure pumping device
ever invented. The design, material and workmanship incorporated in the
construction of Roto-Jet pumps makes them capable of giving long, trouble free
service. The life and satisfactory service of any mechanical unit, however, is
dependent upon correct application, proper installation, periodic inspection and
careful maintenance.
We urge you to read and follow all of the directions in this manual. If additional
copies are required or other detailed instructions are needed, the information may be
obtained upon request.
1.2. ROTO-JET PUMP DESIGN
The exclusive patented Roto-Jet pump has only two basic working parts…a rotating
case and a stationary pick-up tube collector arm within the rotating case. The Roto-
Jet design completely eliminates the need for packing glands, wear rings or multiple
stages as used in conventional centrifugal pumps, and also eliminates the complex
pistons, rods, valves and springs required in reciprocating pumps.
The Roto-Jet operates in the following manner: Liquid enters the intake manifold and
passes into the rotating case where centrifugal force increases the pressure of the
liquid and at the same time its velocity is increased. The velocity of the liquid in the
rotor is converted into additional pressure as it jets into the pick-up tube.

RG 2x2 2
1.3. PUMP IDENTIFICATION
Roto-Jet pumps are designated by a series of letters and numbers, such as RGB-
S484. The first group, RGB, is an indication of the basic mechanical configuration
and the second group, S484, designates the pick-up tube size. The pump
nameplate gives both the pump model designation and the pump serial number.
Permanent records for this pump are kept by the serial number and it must therefore
be used with all correspondence and spare parts orders. This will ensure
replacement of components in the original materials of construction.
2. DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY
2.1. GENERAL
The following are recommended dismantling and assembly instructions for your
Roto-Jet pump. We urge that the instructions be read thoroughly before attempting
to dismantle the unit. The component parts must be handled with care during the
dismantling and assembly process. The work area should be clean and be
equipped with the required tools.
Depending on the accessibility of the pump and the extent of the repair or inspection
required, the pump can be dismantled in place on its foundation. However, to
facilitate the disassembly procedure, it is recommended that the pump be removed
from its foundation and placed securely into a position in which the pump shaft is
facing downward and the manifold is facing upward. Roto-Jet pumps offers
assembly stands for mounting the unit during disassembly and assembly.
CAUTION
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING WORK ON
THIS ROTO-JET PUMP. OBSERVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS PARTICULARLY
SAFETY RELATED INSTRUCTIONS OR CAUTIONS AND USE SAFE SHOP
PRACTICES.

2.8. PREPARATION FOR DISASSEMBLY
WARNING
PLEASE STUDY THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
PERFORMING PUMP MAINTENANCE. ADHERENCE TO THESE
INSTRUCTIONS IS NECESSARY FOR SATISFACTORY REPAIR OR YOUR
ROTO-JET PUMP. MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL MUST READ AND
UNDERSTAND THE ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY SECTION.
WARNING
WHEN PERFORMING EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE OR IF THE PUMP IS TO
REMAIN OUT OF SERVICE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, THE EQUIPMENT
ELECTRICAL SERVICE MUST BE LOCKED OUT WITH AN APPROVED
LOCKOUT AND KEY. FAILURE TO LOCKOUT EQUIPMENT MAY RESULT IN
INJURY.
(1) Lock out and tag the driver.
(2) Block off the suction and discharge.
(3) Slack off belt tension; remove belts and pump sheave, or disconnect flex
coupling.
(4) Disconnect and remove all piping from the manifold.
2.9. CAUTIONS
The following precautions are recommended to insure satisfactory pump operation
after assembly.
1. Replace any o-rings that are exposed during the pump disassembly process as
they lose their seal integrity and may leak.
2. When removing or replacing the pick-up tube, always replace the pick-up tube
capscrews to eliminate any over stressed bolts.
3. Be sure all parts are free of dirt, stray metal chips or any foreign matter and have
been thoroughly cleaned.
4. All torque values given assume lubrication with molybdenum disulfide on threads
and underside of capscrew heads. Refer to figure 2.4 for torque values.
5. All three bearings should be replaced as a set.
6. To avoid creating an out of balance condition that makes the pump susceptible to
vibration damage, match mark capscrew and component relative positions for
reassembly into same positions.

RG 2x2 14
7. Replacement of the rotor, rotor cover or driveshaft will require balancing or
rotating assembly and shimming of pump. See section 6.0.
8. WARNING: When lifting the pump into the vertical position with or without the use of the
assembly stand a swivel hoist ring shall be used in place of the lifting eye. Reference
APPENDIX 4 Drawing.
WARNING
THE EYE-BOLT HOLE LOCATED ON THE TOP OF THE PUMP HOUSING
IS INTENDED FOR LIFTING THE PUMP ONLY, AND NOT THE
COMPLETE PUMP AND BASE PACKAGE.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT LIFTING DEVICES SUCH AS CHAIN, LIFTING EYES,
HOOKS, ETC. MUST BE APPROVED BY LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL
SAFETY CODES.
HOISTS AND CRANES MUST BE ADEQUATELY SIZED TO LIFT RATED
LOADS.
FAILURE TO USE APPROVED LIFTING DEVICES MAY RESULT IN
INJURY.
WHEN LIFTING THE PUMP, IT IS IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE
CHAIN AND CABLES ARE FASTENED RELIABLY TO THEIR RETAINING
HOOKS.
3. DISASSEMBLY
WARNING: Before lifting the pump into the vertical position first remove the lifting eye
and install the swivel hoist. When tightening the swivel hoist ring, torque to 100ft-lbs.
Once the pump is re-assembled and in the horizontal position remove the swivel hoist and
re-install the lifting eye. Reference APPENDIX 4 Drawing.
To disassemble the Roto-Jet pump, refer to Section 2.4 and 2.5. The following
instructions are applicable to the pump being removed from its foundation and placed
securely into a vertical position in which the pump shaft is facing downward and the
endbell is facing upward.
3.1. SEAL REMOVAL

RG 2x2 15
3.1.1. Remove the eight socket head capscrews (64) in the discharge port of the manifold
(36) which secure the pick-up tube (1) to the manifold.
3.1.2. Insert the pick-up tube center guide all the way into the pick-up tube (1) and push or
tap lightly until the pick-up tube moves free of the pick-up tube o-ring (49) and
manifold (36).
3.1.3. Remove the four hex nuts (45) which secure the manifold (36) to the endbell (26) lift
and remove the manifold (36) from the endbell (26). Place the manifold on a flat
surface with the manifold ports facing down.
3.1.4. In this position, carefully remove the seal retaining ring (91) from the manifold (36). To
remove the mechanical seal (75) from the manifold, use the seal puller included in the
tool kit, or gently tap the back side of the mechanical seal with a brass rod inserted
through the discharge port of the manifold (36) until the mechanical seal is free to be
removed by hand.
3.1.5. Using an O-Ring pick, remove the mechanical seal o-ring (44) and pick-up tube o-ring
(49) from the manifold (36).
3.1.6. Install a rubber or cloth shield between the pick-up tube (1) and the seal mating ring
(78) in the rotor cover (4), to protect mating ring face.
3.1.7. Using a hand tool (P/N 0661977), remove the seal mating ring (78) from the rotor
cover (4) until the seal mating ring is free to be removed by hand.
NOTE: If only the mechanical seal (75) and seal mating ring (78) replacement
is necessary, no further disassembly is required. See section 4.5 for
reassembly of seal.
See section 3.3 for rotor cover and pick-up tube removal.
3.2. ROTOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY
WARNING: Before lifting the pump into the vertical position first remove the
lifting eye and install the swivel hoist. When tightening the swivel hoist ring, torque
to 100ft-lbs. Once the pump is re-assembled and in the horizontal position remove
the swivel hoist and re-install the lifting eye. Reference APPENDIX 4 Drawing.
Recommended the unit is mounted vertically with the shaft downward and the
rotor facing upward when rotor assembly is removed.
3.2.1. Remove two of the nine endbell socket head capscrews (63) at nine o'clock and three
o'clock. Install the two endbell alignment rods (P/N 060580573). In place of the two
capscrews, remove remainder of socket head capscrews (63). Thread eyebolts (P/N
06055404) into three evenly spaced, tapped jackscrew holes and using a sling, lift
