Assemble the Wet-End Components
a. Place the front housing (#3) on a flat surface with the inlet facing down, as shown.
b. Press the gasket (#4) into the front housing groove. Ensure that the gasket is fully seated in the groove.
c. Put the front thrust washer (#5) onto the shaft (#6) with the longer shaft flat facing down. Insert the
thrust washer and shaft into the front housing.
d. Slide the impeller (#7) onto the shaft with the impeller blades facing down.
e. Put the rear thrust washer (#5) onto the shaft.
f.
Insert the rear housing (#8) into the shaft. Ensure the shaft and rear thrust washer flats are aligned with
each other and the rear housing is coaxial with the shaft. There should be no gaps between the front
and rear housing.
g. Using both hands, lift the assembly and gently rock back and forth to determine if there is slight
movement of the impeller. If there is no movement, the impeller cannot freely rotate on the shaft.
Therefore, disassemble and inspect the components. Reassemble and ensure slight movement of
components before proceeding to the next step.
h. It is highly suggested to use two cable ties (minimum breaking strength of 40 lbs. each) to facilitate the
assembly. Tighten the cable ties to secure the front and rear housings.
2)
Fasten the Guide Pins
a. Using a flathead screwdriver, screw two guide pins (Item A) into the motor bracket as shown.
