ASSEMBLY

If removed, replace the motor shaft deflector. Install the
motor adapter, with the drain opening DOWN, using the
four hex bolts. Torque bolts to 168 lbs. in. (19 N m).
Slide the seal housing assembly onto the motor shaft,
seating it fully and squarely against the motor adapter.
Using a quality grade O-ring lubricant, lubricate the outer
elastomer of the mechanical seal stationary seat. Fully
and squarely install the stationary seat into the seal hous-
ing. With a clean, lint free cloth, CAREFULLY wipe the
seat face clean of a lubricant or debris. DO NOT damage
the seat face.
Using a quality grade O-ring lubricant, lubricate the
inner elastomer of the mechanical seal rotary assembly.
Fully and squarely install the rotary assembly against the
stationary seat.
To install impeller, clean shaft and impeller thoroughly
with denatured alcohol and a wire brush to remove cured
Loctite from threads. Wait for parts to dry then apply
Loctite 7649 primer to threads on shaft and impeller. Al-
low 3-5 minutes for primer to dry. Apply 3 drops of Loc-
tite 243 medium strength thread-locker to shaft threads
and 2 drops on impeller threads. Tighten impeller to a
torque value of 144 lbs. in. (16 N m).
Using a quality grade O-ring lubricant, lubricate and in-
stall a new casing O-ring and internal O-ring (1SN only).
Slide the back pullout assembly into the pump casing
and secure using the eight casing cap screws. Torque the
cap screws to 70 lbs. in. (8 N m), using a cross pattern
sequence to assure the casing is pulled down evenly.
With new O-rings installed, install the casing vent and
drain plugs, tightening securely.
Assembly is complete.
