PORT BOSS

STORAGE:

 

If the pump and coupling are to be stored, drain the pump 

and pour non-detergent SAE 30-weight oil into the pump port. 

Apply grease to the pump or the coupling shaft extension, if 

present or accessible.

Viking suggests rotating the pump shaft every 30 days to 

circulate the oil in the pump. The coupling should be stored 

in a dry area. 

Note

:  If  the  liquid  to  be  pumped  reacts  with  oil,  use  an 

acceptable alternate.

SUGGESTED REPAIR TOOLS: 

The following tools are required to properly repair Series 855

LUBRICATION:

Some bearing carriers require external lubrication. This must 

be applied slowly with a handgun to lubrication fittings every 

500 hours of operation with multi-purpose grease, NLGI # 2.  

Do not over-grease.  Applications involving very high or low 

temperatures will require other types of lubrication.  Refer to 

ESB-515.  Consult factory with specific lubrication questions.
