PURPOSE: This manual is intended to instruct pump users on the assembly and disassembly of the TE-10KS-MD and
TE-10PS-MD.
CAUTION IN ASSEMBLY & DISASSEMBLY: The magnetic coupling in the pump is strong enough to warrant caution.
When servicing the pump, the attraction of the impeller magnet and drive magnet may pull the impeller from your grasp.
When disassembling, hold onto the outer diameter of the impeller vanes with both hands and disengage the impeller
from the magnetic field. Hold the impeller firmly and resist the magnetic attraction as you pull the impeller from the rear
housing. Ensure that the rear housing is secured to the motor bracket with the two screws (Item C) supplied before
pulling the impeller out. Do not allow the impeller to snap into the rear housing, doing so may result in damage.
When assembling, always use the safety wooden boards (Item B) before attempting to mount the wet-end assembly
onto the guide pins. Using the guide pins (Item A) supplied, use both hands to mount the wet-end assembly onto the
pins. Slowly slide the wet-end assembly onto the pins to gently engage the wet-end assembly into the magnetic field.
Hold the wet-end assembly firmly and resist the magnetic attraction as you slowly put it in. Do NOT place your fingers
in between the wet-end assembly and wooden safety boards.
The magnetic forces are strongest between 1/3 to 2/3 of engagement and will diminish when the magnets become
aligned. Exercise caution in placing any of the magnets near steel, tools, or other sensitive instruments as doing so
may result in damage or personal injury. When attaching drive magnet to motor shaft, position the face of the drive
magnet 3/16 inch above the face of the motor bracket.
Note: Do NOT discard items A, B, or C. Retain these items in a safe location for future assembly/disassembly.
TE-10KS-MD & TE-10PS-MD
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
Ensure power to the motor is OFF before
servicing the pump.
Suction and discharge valves must be closed
before disassembling the pump. It is
recommended to drain the pump and piping
before servicing as they may contain fluid. If
hazardous fluids are used, wear the proper
personal protective equipment (PPE) and flush
the pump with water or appropriate solution.
Always wear safety glasses and safety gloves
when assembling or disassembling the pump.
