Spindle replacement
1. The spindle (210) is slightly pressed into the rear cas-
ing (158). Pull the spindle out by the hand.
Warm the rear casing in hot water if the spindle can
not be pulled out. Then pull the spindle out by lightly
moving it from side to side and up and down. The
rear thrust ring (314.3) comes off as the spindle is
removed.
Wear protective clothing for the prevention of
scald.
2. Clean the insertion part of the spindle. Fit the rear
thrust ring in the rear casing with no interference to the
spindle insertion. Press the spindle into place by the
hand or the hand press.

Impeller/ Bearing mounting
1. Fit the impeller into the magnet capsule, mating the
insert ports of the pin.
Note that the mated connection of the impeller and the
magnet capsule need to be machined. We have all the
impeller machined in advance.
2. Insert the pin. Use pliers for easy insertion.
3. Turn the magnet capsule upside down with the
impeller fitted. Warm the magnet capsule in the hot
water of 80
˚
C. after it is warmed, press the bearing into
the magnet capsule by the hand press.
Check that the pin is fully inserted and there
is no interference during press fitting.
Wear protective clothing for the prevention of
scald.
4. Insert the rear ring. Heat the lugs on the mouth ring by
a plastic welder or industrial dryer and then close the
lugs down.
