Under normal operating conditions they should require no 

further greasing.
Freezing
Drain the entire system if there is danger of freezing.  A 

drain plug is provided at the bottom of the pump case for 

this purpose.

ROTARY SEAL ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT

Make certain that the power supply is 

disconnected before attempting to service 

the unit!  The rotary seal assembly must be handled carefully to 

avoid damaging the precision lapped faces of the sealing components.

Disassembly

1. Remove the four (4) pump through bolts that connect 

the mounting ring to the pump body.  Remove the 

pump body, taking care not to damage the gasket or 

o-ring.

2. Remove the impeller. Using a 9/16” open end wrench, 

hold the motor shaft flat and unthread the impeller by 

turning it counterclockwise. The motor shaft flat area is 

located in the middle of the mounting ring.

3. Remove the mechanical seal assembly.  The rotary 

portion of the seal assembly (carbon ring, Buna-N 

gasket and spring) will easily slide off the end of the 

shaft.  The ceramic portion can be pried out of the 

rubber seating using two (2) screwdrivers (see Fig. 6).

Reassembly

CAUTION

 

The precision lapped faces of the 

mechanical seal are easily damaged.  Handle the 

replacement seal carefully.  Short seal life will result if seal 

faces (ceramic & carbon) are nicked, scratched or dirty.

1. Clean the seal cavity of the mounting ring and the 

motor shaft thoroughly.

2. Apply liquid soap (one 

drop only) to the outside 

of the Buna-N gasket 

that houses the ceramic 

seal seat.  With thumb 

pressure, press the 

ceramic seat, polished 

face up,  squarely into the 

seal cavity (see Figure 7).

3. If seal does not seat 

squarely, remove and 

reclean the seal cavity.  

Never examine, make wiring changes or 

touch the motor before disconnecting 

the main electrical supply switch. The thermal device may have 

opened the electrical circuit.

PRIMING

1. Before starting any centrifugal pump, it is absolutely 

necessary that both the casing and suction pipe be 

completely filled with liquid.  This priming can be 

accomplished by any of the following methods:

2. When the liquid supply level is above the center line 

of the pump, it is primed by opening the suction and 

discharge valves.  The inflowing liquid will displace the 

air and fill the suction line, pump casing, and discharge 

line up to the level of supply.

3. Where the pump is operating with suction lift and the 

suction line is equipped with a foot valve, remove the 

priming plug from the discharge tee (see Figure 4) 

and fill the pump body and suction pipe completely 

with water.  No additional water will be needed for 

subsequent start-ups unless the pump body is drained.

4. After the pump is turned on it will require 2-5 minutes 

before all air is evacuated from the suction line and 

water begins to flow.  If there is no water after 5 

minutes, turn the pump off and check the following:
Any air leaks on the suction line must be eliminated.
Suction pipe inlet should be a minimum of 5 feet below 

the water level.
Total suction lift cannot be greater than 25 feet.
Any restrictions in the discharge pipe, such as a closed 

valve must be eliminated.

NOTE:  Unit must be full of liquid before operating.  Never 

run dry, or against a closed discharge.  Dry running or 

running unit against a closed discharge will cause damage 

to the shaft seal.  Do not pump dirty water or abrasive 

liquids, otherwise the same may occur as if running dry.

MOTOR ROTATION

1. Pump impeller rotates in one direction only, 

(counterclockwise when facing the pump suction 

tapping) and cannot be reversed.

MAINTENANCE

Lubrication
The pump and motor require no lubrication.  The ball 

bearings of the motor have been greased at the factory.
