slip out of place to prevent pinching the gasket. Bolt the
casing in place with the (8) hex head casing bolts (Items
66). Tighten the bolts evenly to avoid binding, torqueing
the bolts per the torque table on page 9.
17.Make a final inspection by turning the pump shaft by
hand, checking for free rotation and listening for noise.
Dry silicon carbide components may make a chattering
sound when the rotor is turned by hand. This is normal.
If resistance or scraping is felt, or if crunching noises are
heard (scraping, etc.), inspect the pump to determine the
cause, and take corrective action. A faint clicking noise as the bushing bears against
the anti-rotation set bolts is normal. The click will be heard only once each time the
direction of rotation is changed.
18.Review the assembly procedure and make sure all steps were accomplished. The
pump is ready to be returned to service or placed in stores inventory.
