| and parts list in Section 6 labeled Direct Drive |
When the front panel is removed, all the working parts of the pump are accessible under clearly marked cover plates. Since pump may contain product, be prepared to catch product in an appropriate container when removing any cover.
Remove pump cover screws and remove cover plate (1) and square ring (2). Note orientation of rotor (4) and of vanes (36) in rotor slots. Remove key (3) and withdraw rotor and vanes from pump block (12). Since rotor is spring loaded, make sure washer (6) and spring (7) remain on pump shaft. Insert new rotor and replace vanes so that trailing edge slopes away from direction of pump rotation (counterclockwise). Reinstall key in shaft slot and rotor keyway. Check pump cover for scoring (if scored, replace). Replace square ring (2) and while holding rotor in against spring tension, slide cover over opening and tighten screws.
To replace shaft seal, remove rotor and vanes as above. Slide spring (7) and both washers (6) off shaft.
NOTE It is critical that the seal part mating surfaces remain clean and dry. Do not touch or allow oil of any type to contaminate the carbon or brass mating surfaces. If the seal inadvertently becomes contaminated, both mating surfaces must be carefully cleaned with a
The bypass valve (29) is preset to provide maximum performance without overloading the motor and can be withdrawn by removing the bypass cover plate (31). When reassembling, make sure the holed end of the tube (32) and
The check valve is attached to the check valve cover (26) and will come out when the cover is removed. If you can hear the product in the suction line running back into the storage tank when this assembly (20) is removed, the check valve is holding and keeping the pump primed. When reassembling, make sure the rubber valve disc is facing down toward the valve seat.
METER-REGISTER DISASSEMBLY
NOTE: | Numbers in parentheses correspond to the numbers shown on the parts illustration |
| and parts list in Section 6 labeled 1860 and 4860 |
The B size measuring chamber (5) can be removed for cleaning by taking out four meter body screws (2), lifting off register assembly (14) and removing three measuring chamber screws (4).
After separating and cleaning top and bottom half, reassemble, making sure baffle is seated in grooves in top and bottom halves and through slot in measuring disc (7). Do not drop or sharply strike chamber parts while handling. Rotate disc to make sure it turns freely and replace in meter body. Do not overtighten screws (4). A torque of
