LUBRICATION

To check the oil level of the mechanical seal perform the following:

DISASSEMBLY

Refer to Figure 11 for location of parts to be removed.

For Model ST2040T:

1.Position pump upside down.

2.Remove casing.

3.Remove the pump impeller.

4.Remove the oil plug and packing.

For Model ST2037, ST2047, ST2047B and ST2038P:

1.Position pump upside down.

2.Removestrainer.

3.Remove casing.

4.Remove the pump impeller.

6.Remove the oil plug and packing.

OIL CHECK

1.Checkpumpoilatoilcavityplug(Figure11).Checkevery300 hoursandchangehydraulicoilevery6months(1,000hours) or as needed.

2.While checking the hydraulic oil level, also check the condition of the hydraulic oil in the seal cavity.Discolored milky oil indicates a failure of the water seal. If this occurs, replace water seal.

3.If oil level is low fill with SAE 10 weight non-detergent hydraulic oil (i.e.ShellTurbo 32 or equivalent). Fill oil cavity 75% to 85% full (allow air space for expansion). See Table 1 for mechanical seal oil capacity.

IMPELLER

1.Ifimpellerisdefectiveorbadlyworn,replaceimpellerimme- diately.
