of grease.
The correct lubrication is grease for bearings, for example Exxon Mobil Unirex N3,
Mobil Mobilith SHC 220 or equivalent.
NOTICE:
Surplus grease can cause the impeller to become loose. Remove surplus grease from
conical and/or cylindrical surfaces of shafts and/or sleeves.
2. Mount the impeller:
a) Insert the sleeve into the impeller.
b) Lubricate the threads of the impeller screw.
Always use a new screw.
