Installation, Operating and Maintenance Instruction
If the whole pump is to be dismantled for maintenance
work, the pump should be placed in a vertical position
(intake pipe facing upwards). A workbench with a hole
(approx. 10 mm larger than the shaft) is very helpful in
such cases.
MPA 40, MPAI 40, MPA 65 and MPAI 65 can be
placed on the coupling protection adapter (95). Stand
MPA 100, MPAI 100 and MPA 125, MPAI 125
vertically with an additional support.
A hoist or a second person is required for dismantling
type MPA 100, MPAI 100 and MPA 125, MPAI 125
pumps.
Secure the pump so that it cannot fall over.
This description does not include dismantling
the mechanical seal. Read the instructions for
"Replacing the Shaft Seal" before dismantling
the pump in order to carry out any necessary
preparations in good time.

Loosen nuts (M1) and remove casing anchor (25).

Remove suction casing (3) and take out O-ring
(OR1).
Model MP:

Loosen impeller nuts (28), remove washer (29).
Model MPAI (Sizes 40.1 and 40.2)

Screw off the inducer (101), thereby fix the shaft
on the coupling against twist.
Model MPAI (Sizes 65.1, 65.2, 100.1, 100.2, 125.1
and 125.2)

Loosen impeller nuts (28), remove washer (29).

Remove the inducer (101) and take out the key
(PF5).

Dismantle impeller (1) and diffuser (2), take out
feather key (PF1). Mark all parts for assembly.

Remove inside bearing housing (54) and bearing
sleeve (23).

Dismantle pump in stages down to the pump
casing

Turn over the remaining part of the pump (bearing
flange (10) faces upward), axially secure shaft
(24) (use a support so that it cannot slip).)

Move back splash ring (73)

Unscrew nuts (M2) and nuts (M5), pull the bearing
cap (12) off the bearing flange (10).

Remove bearing flange (10) (lightly tapping the
bearing flange (10) facilitates removal)

Unscrew shaft nut (50) (sickle spanner), the shaft
nut has a securing device to prevent it from
coming loose.

If this securing device is no longer adequate, the
nut must be replaced.

Remove roller bearing (K1) with withdrawing
screw.

Remove spacer sleeve (72), bearing cap (12) and
splash ring (73), pull out feather key (PF3).

Removing the shaft seal: See "Replacing the
Shaft Seal".

Clean all parts. If the pump is to be reassembled
at a later date, carefully store all parts and protect
from corrosion.
