12) Place the
pump body
(Ref. #42) onto the
bracket so the
discharge opening
(large hole on
side of body) is toward the bracket handle (Fig.
#16). Install the ten
body screws
(Ref. #21). You
will need a 3/8" socket or fl at head screwdriver
for the screw head.
13) Tighten the screws in a
clockwise
rotation
around the pump (Fig. 17). Start at the screw just
to the left of the drain plug (Ref. #23). Tightening
in this sequence helps prevent pinching the check
valve and body o-ring.
14) Place o-rings (Ref. #25 & 22) on the
fi ller plug
(Ref. #24) and
drain plug
(Ref. #23).
15) Install the drain plug and fi ller plug (Fig. 18).
Tighten only hand tight. DO NOT USE A WRENCH.
16) Apply the appropriate labels to the pump.
The red, white & black warning label should be
applied on the left side of the pump body. The
pump model number label should be applied on
the right side of the pump body.
17) With pump fully assembled, turn the drive
shaft to insure clearance of impeller between
the bracket and volute face. Should you hear an
internal scraping noise, disassemble the pump to
the impeller. Adjust amount of impeller shims to
correct the problem. Reassemble and check for
clearance one more time.

in t h e
pump discharge and suction. 1½" or 2
fittings - 10-12 wraps of Teflon
®
tape on the
suction fittings and elbow, 6 wraps on discharge
nipple. 3" fittings - 15 wraps with ¾" Teflon
®
tape on suction, discharge and elbow fittings;
6 wraps on discharge nipple.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. ONE FULL TURN
WITH A WRENCH PAST HAND TIGHT is usually
suffi cient to prevent leakage.
19) After pump assembly, refer to pump operator's
manual for proper operating procedures.
