Pump Reassembly

1. When installing the replacement seal into the
seal plate, use soapy water to wet the rubber
boot before pressing it into the seal plate.
2. Remount the seal plate to the motor.
3. Before installing the rotating portion of the seal
on the motor shaft, wet the motor shaft with
soapy water and slide the seal onto the motor
shaft. Ensure that the carbon face contacts the
ceramic face of the stationary seat. Press the
seal into the seal plate with your thumbs and
wipe off the ceramic with a clean cloth.
4. Screw impeller onto the motor shaft (clockwise
to tighten).
5. Screw in the impeller lock screw (counter-
clockwise to tighten).
Note: Insert a 1/4" hex Allen wrench into the
motor shaft through the hole in the rear motor
fan cover. This will prevent the motor shaft
from rotating and you screw in the impeller lock
screw.
6. Remount the diffuser onto the seal plate. Make
sure the plastic pins and holding screw inserts
are aligned.
7. Grease the diffuser quad ring and seal plate
O-ring prior to reassembly.
8. Assemble the motor sub-assembly to the
strainer pot-pump body. Tighten the bolts until
all 4 bolts are in place and finger tightened.
9. Fill the pump with water.
10. Reinstall the pump lid and plastic clamp; see the
next section, 'Restart Instructions'.
11. Re-prime the system.
