Recommendations, Warnings & Installation

• Receiving inspection
  Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for damage or shortages. If damage has occurred, file a claim immediately with the company that delivered the pump. If
  the manual is removed from the packaging, do not lose or misplace.

• Storage
  Any product that is stored for a period longer than six (6) months from the date of purchase should be bench tested prior to installation. A bench test consists of, checking the impeller to assure it is free turning and a run test to assure the motor (and switch if provided) operate properly. Do not pump out of liquid.

• Installation Location
  The pump should be located as near as possible to the liquid to be pumped and in no case should the pump be more than 25 feet above the surface of the liquid supply. The pump should always be as level as possible.
  Locate the pump on a firm footing to make sure the pump will not move due to vibration. Flex coupled and Vbelt driven units should be permanently grouted onto a cement foundation. The pumps should be level to provide favorable operating conditions. In addition, the flexible coupling should be realigned after grouting in order to eliminate excessive wear on the coupling.
  Allow a minimum of 18 inches in front of the pump case cover or hatch cover to permit easy removal and access to the interior of the pump. On belt driven units, allow a minimum of 10 inches at the shaft end to permit easy removal of the pedestal or rotating cartridge.

• Controls
  Be sure the electrical specification of the control selected properly match the electrical specifications of the pump.

• Motor connection
  All wiring of motor and control, overload protection and grounding should be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, State and Local codes. Make motor connection per label located on motor or motor manufactures manual.

• Rotation
  All units rotate clockwise as viewed from shaft end of pump. It is necessary to slide one half of the flex coupling back when checking rotation to eliminate the possibility of unscrewing the impellers which are threaded on the shaft.

• Suction
  CAUTION
  THIS PUMP SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED WITHOUT A STRAINER ON THE END OF THE SUCTION LINE TO PREVENT STICKS, STONES, RAGS AND OTHER FOREIGN MATTER FROM BEING DRAWN INTOTHE IMPELLER. THE STRAINER SHOULD BE CLEANED REGULARLY TO INSURE FULL FLOW.

The use of pipe the same size as the port size is highly recommended.
Using a smaller pipe line can cause internal damage. Make sure all lines have air-tight joints. The smallest air leak in the suction line may prevent the pump from priming. All
horizontal suction lines should slope up to the pump to avoid trapped air pockets. All piping should be properly supported.

• Discharge
  Connect discharge hose or pipe to the discharge port. Make sure all lines have air-tight joints

• Lubrication
  The seal is the only component that requires lubrication. It is grease filled at the factory but must be checked before putting unit into operation. A spring loaded grease cup attached to the seal chamber maintains the grease fill.

The plunger and handle should be no less than 1/4″ above the cap which indicates the seal chamber is full or pressurized. If less than 1/4″ above cap, the seal chamber needs additional lubricant.
Filling through the grease cup by turning the handle clockwise in order to compress the plunger spring into the cap. Removing cap, fill with grease, replace cap and release spring by turning handle counterclockwise until it is in contact with plunger flange.
Approved grease: SHELL ALVANIA R2, MOBILE MOBILUX 2, AMPOL RR2, B.P.
ENERGERASE LS2, CALTEX MULTIFAX 2 or equal.
CAUTION
PLUNGER AND HANDLE MUST BE TOGETHER AND NO LESS THAN 1/4″ ABOVE CAP DURING PUMP OPERATION.

• Priming
  Remove pipe plug in top of body and fill the pump body completely with solids free liquid. In freezing weather prime pump with warm water.

CAUTION
DO NOT OPERATE PUMP WITHOUT PRIMING FIRST. OPERATING DRY WILL DAMAGE SEAL.

• Starting
  To start pump, apply power to motor per the MOTOR OR ENGINE INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL.

• Shutdown
  Discontinue operation by stopping the engine as stated in ENGINE MANUAL or by disconnecting electric power to motor. It is recommended to drain and flush pump if pump has been operating in freezing weather.

• Service
  Turn off and lock out power before servicing pump

• Check valve
  Disconnect suction piping and remove hex nuts and suction flange. Remove gasket, weights, screw and lockwasher and replace if worn or damaged.
  To replace, the HINGE section of gasket is at the TOP and the LARGE weight is on the pump side of gasket.

• Body, Volute & Impeller
  Disconnect suction and discharge piping. Remove hex nuts and lockwashers then remove body, oring and seal plate from pedestal.
  Pull volute and gasket from seal plate. Remove cap screw and washers. Unscrew the impeller from shaft in the right hand direction. Take note of the size and quantity of shims used. To replace lip seal, press out of seal plate.
  To reassemble, use the required number of shims to result in an impeller-to- volute clearance of .010″ to .020″.

• Shaft seal
  Remove rotating member, spring and retaining ring of seal from shaft. To remove stationary, remove cap screws and lockwashers and pull seal plate from pedestal. Press stationary out of seal plate. If any part shows wear or damage replace complete seal. Replace shaft sleeve if worn or damaged.

CAUTION
HANDLEALLSEAL PARTS WITH EXTREME CARE. DO NOT DAMAGE LAPPED FACES.
Replace seal plate onto pedestal.
Lightly oil shaft and inner surface of stationary. Press over shaft and into seal plate
Oil inner surface of rotating member and with lapped surface facing pedestal, slide rotating member onto shaft until lapped faces of stationary and rotating member are together.
Replace the rest of the seal. Replace shims and impeller, making sure that spring is properly seated against impeller.

• Pedestal & Shaft
  Remove capscrews, lockwashers and bearing cap from pedestal. Remove shaft, slinger and bearing assembly.
  To replace bearing remove retaining ring and slinger. Press off bearings from shaft.
  REASSEMBLE REMAINDER OF PUMP IN OPPOSITE ORDER.
