1. Lightly mark the shaft end cover 2 Figure 4-41, gear
housings (10, 24, 38 and 52) and port end cover 57 to
ensure proper assembly.

a vice.
3. Remove mounting lockwashers 59 and nuts 60.
4. Remove port end cover 57.
5. Remove gear housing 52. Tap the housing with a soft
hammer, if necessary.
6. Since the metal components are not replaceable there is
no need to disassemble the gear housings 52, 38, and
24, except for removing the seals. Remove plastic seals
45 and 56, rubber seals 46 and 55 and o-rings 51 and
53.
7. Remove connecting shaft 48.
8. Remove spacer plate 44.
9. Remove gear housing 38. Tap the housing with a soft
hammer, if necessary.
10. Remove plastic seals 31 and 43, rubber seals 32 and 42
and o-rings 37 and 40.
11. Remove connecting shaft 34.
12. Remove spacer plate 30.
13. Remove gear housing 24. Tap the housing with a soft

CAUTION
The pump is heavy. Use a sling and overhead crane or a
support to hold the pump in position while removing the
mounting hardware.
CAUTION
Seals are the only recommended service parts for this
pump because it is economically unfeasible to repair the
pump; service parts and labor to install the parts will often
exceed a new pump cost. Also, replacing one or more
components of the pump will affect volumetric efficiency.
Once a pump is broken in the components wear patterns
match the components’ wear patterns producing a
“customized” fit. Changing components will affect the
“custom” fit.
