REASSEMBLY HINTS & TIPS
ASSEMBLY:
Upon performing applicable maintenance to the air distribu-
tion system, the pump can now be reassembled. Please
refer to the disassembly instructions for photos and parts
placement. To reassemble the pump, follow the disassem-
bly instructions in reverse order. The air distribution system
needs to be assembled first, then the diaphragms and finally
the wetted path. Please find the applicable torque speci-
fications on this page. The following tips will assist in the
assembly process.
• Clean the inside of the center section shaft bushing to
ensure no damage is done to new seals.
• Stainless bolts should be lubed to reduce the possibility
of seizing during tightening.
• Be sure to tighten outer pistons simultaneously on PTFE-
fitted pumps to ensure proper torque values.
