NOTE:
This manual covers several different configurations of P-Series pumps.
Be sure to select the appropriate model number for your pump.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove the four (4) snap ring screws. Now the snap ring can
be removed using a screwdriver or a pair of pliers.
2. Insert a 2 inch threaded pipe through the center hole at the end
of the housing to remove the head. Pull with a rocking motion to
remove. Head O-rings can easily be replaced.
3. Unscrew the fan cover screws and remove the fan cover and
drip shield. Place the screwdriver between fan blades and
unscrew the impeller nut using a
3
/4 inch open wrench in a
counterclockwise rotation. Impeller nut O-ring can be replaced.
4. With the pump in a vertical position, impeller up, place a screw-
driver through the discharge port wedging between the impeller
top and the housing. Carefully lift the impeller and remove. If
impeller does not remove easily, proceed to step 5.
5. Remove the four (4) motor bolts located beneath the motor
bracket. Motor and housing are now separated. Do not try to
remove shaft as this is an integral piece with the motor rotor.
Slinger and lip seal can be replaced. Using a rubber mallet hit
the pump bracket lightly, top side facing motor, until the impeller
and keyway pop loose.
ASSEMBLY
1. With the motor in a vertical position, shaft upwards, place hous-
ing over shaft, lining up motor bolt holes in the mounting bracket
with holes in the motor. Be sure the slinger is properly in place.
Screw the motor bolts into the holes beneath the mounting
bracket in a diagonal sequence.
Be sure motor screws are tight.
2. Insert the impeller into the housing until it bottoms out. Do not
hammer the impeller and sleeve down on the shaft. Line up the
keyway and insert key by lightly tapping it with a hammer. Screw
the impeller nut clockwise holding impeller. Be sure impeller nut
O-ring is properly in place. After handtight, turn with wrench 180
degrees,10-15 inch lbs. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
3. Replace the fan cover and drip shield. Insert the fan cover
screws and tighten. Be sure fan is not rubbing against fan cover.
4. Place the pump upright resting on the motor. Look down into the
housing and, while rotating the impeller, check to see that the
impeller is centered. The impeller must not be touching the side
of the housing.
5. Wet head and head O-rings. Be sure head O-rings are properly
in place. Insert 2 inch threaded pipe into the head and replace
in housing. The threaded pipe should be tapped with a mallet,
pushing the head into the housing until the snap ring groove is
exposed. Remove pipe and replace snap ring. Line up through
holes in snap ring

holes in the
head by rotating
the snap ring
counterclockwise.
