HINT: When replacing complete circulation pumps for
softer bearing models (UC/11 & later), reusing existing
front pump housings (& discarding replacement
housings) can save time by not having to change hose
clamps. If desired, order # 172272 hose clamps &
replace entire pumps.
CAUTION: Don’t grab
motor next to capacitor to
avoid jamming your hand
on the capacitor.
