F. OPERATION LIQUID LIMITATIONS Never operate with fluids that are corrosive to iron, steel, aluminum or bronze. The pump is designed for fluids having the general characteristics of oil. CAUTION ATTENTION Operating conditions, such as speed, fluid viscosity, temperature, inlet pressure, discharge pressure, filtration, duty cycle, drive type, mounting, etc.
G. PUMP DISASSEMBLY Refer to Assembly 1 for one stage (X1, X2) pumps Refer to Assembly 2 for multistage (X3, X4, X5, X6) pumps 1. Remove drive key (36) 2. Remove capscrews (38) and end cover (15) with O-ring (35). 3.

CAUTION ATTENTION In next step, ring gear (12), pinion (11) and key (13) will be removed. If ring (12) and pinion (11) are to be reused, identify them, with a marker or the like, so it can be determined to which housing they belong (if there is more than one housing in pump) and which direction face of each gear was positioned in housing.
13. If lip seals (32) are to be replaced, remove them from seal housing (9), or (7) if "weep hole" design, and discard. 14. If ball bearing (31) is to be replaced, remove snap ring (33) from shaft (1), press ball bearing (31) off shaft (1) and discard.

NOTE: Refer to “Inspection of Parts” for additional information on part inspection and replacement. To assist in assembly, wipe all parts with light lubricating oil, if appropriate and available, to be pumped. NOTE: Prior to assembly, remove all nicks and sharp edges on housings and gears with de-burring stone. Particular attention should be paid to kidney port chamfers in housings, to faces of ring and pinion gears and to areas of housings that were pried apart on disassembly.

CAUTION ATTENTION If gears are installed in wrong housing, pump may not perform properly or may seize during operation. This is because gears are matched to each housing individually and may not have correct clearances if installed in another housing. If gears are installed facing wrong direction, pump may not perform properly or may seize during operation.

20. Install second stage pinion gear (11) on shaft (6). Pinion gear (11) should slide freely on shaft (6) and key (13). If not, ensure key (13) is properly installed and shaft (6) and pinion (11) keyway are free of burrs. Ensure pinion (11) is installed in stage from which it was removed and is facing direction from which it was removed.
29. Install O-ring (41) on last stage gear housing (4). 30. Install dowel pin (37) in back of previous stage round housing (3). 31. Install last stage (square) gear housing (4), with installed ring gear (12), onto shaft (6). Ensure dowel pin (37) engages dowel pin hole in back face of previous stage round housing 93) and pinion gear (11) installed on shaft (6) is properly positioned to enter gear housing (4).
