INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
See Fig. A-2 for an overall view of the Pump Assembly.
Over time, the dynamic Seals and O-rings in the PowerSurvivor 40E will wear. The Repair Seal Kit contains the
major seals and O-rings that should be replaced to improve operating efficiency. It also contains new check valve
poppets, springs, and drive oil which should be replaced simultaneously. This Repair Seal Kit should be installed
after roughly 1000 hours of operation. It should be installed regardless of whether there is leakage or a reduction
of fresh water. Learning to perform this procedure will help users ensure optimal performance.
Before beginning the Repair Seal Kit procedure, note the following precaution:
1.
Keep the work area clean and clear of dirt, hair, and other contaminants.
2.
Avoid scratching Pump Components when removing or replacing O-rings.
3.
All seals and O-rings should be lubricated with silicone grease. Never use petroleum-based lubricants
as a substitute.
4.
When installing O-rings, do not roll or twist them.
NOTE:
Average time to replace all seals is 1 hour. If you are performing this maintenance for the first time, expect
it to take 3 hours.
