Reassembling a Strainer
F/FA Strainer
Follow these steps to disassemble a F/FA strainer:
1. Replace the strainer basket (A) or (B) into the
housing.
2. Place the end cover o-ring (1) in the groove in
the end cover (2).
3. Place the end cover (2) with the o-ring installed,
on the strainer housing end (3).
4. Fasten the end cover with the 4 washers and
screws (4). Evenly tighten all screws. See the
Torque Chart
below.
Tightening Screws and Nuts
Leakage that occurs after tightening the fasteners indicates a damaged seal or distortion to
the surface of the cover. In either case, the seals or cover must be replaced. Additional
tightening will not stop the leakage.
FS/FSAA/FSA Strainer
Follow these steps to disassemble a FS/FSAA/FSA strainer:
1. Strainer baskets have an extended collar, or lip on the
bottom end of the basket (C). Insert this end into the
strainer housing first.
2. Place the o-ring (1) in the groove on top of the strainer
housing (2).
3. Place the center hole of the basket cover plate (3) over
the basket rod (4) that extends from the center of the
housing. The plate should now rest on top of the basket.
4. Install the washer (5) and the wing-nut (6) on the basket
rod (4).
5. Place the cotter pin (7) through the hole at the top of the
basket rod (4).
