Tightening the Pump Gland Bolt
NOTE: This procedure applies only to pumps with a gland bolt.
On pumps with a gland bolt, adhesive may leak from the self‐sealing pump
shaft packing at regular intervals. When leakage occurs, tighten the pump
gland bolt.
1. Heat the pump to application temperature using a heated air blower.
2. See Figure 7‐5. Using a 24‐mm short‐handle, open‐end wrench (with a
15‐degree offset), tighten the pump gland bolt approximately
1
/
4
of a turn
clockwise (in the direction of pump rotation). When the bolt can no longer
be tightened, replace the pump.
3. Restore the system to normal operation.
