Safety
1. Introduction
This manual contains all the information needed for the correct installation, use and maintenance of your new Finish Thompson
pump. It should be read and understood by all the personnel involved in installation, operating and servicing of the pump before
it is started.
2. Operator Qualification and Training
The personnel in charge of the installation, the operation, and the maintenance of the pump must be qualified and able to per form the operations described in this manual. Finish Thompson, Inc. shall not be held responsible for the training level of
personnel and for the fact that they are not fully aware of the contents of this manual.
3. Safety Instructions
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY
BEFORE using or servicing your pump, please make sure to wear the proper clothing, eye protection and follow standard safety
procedures when handling corrosive or personally harmful materials.
GENERAL DANGER
ALWAYS use a stainless steel pump tube with an explosion proof electric motor or air motor and static protection kit with
grounded discharge hose when pumping or mixing flammable or combustible material.
NEVER use in pressurized containers.
ALWAYS store unit upright, i.e. motor above pump, and away from corrosive liquids and vapors.
DANGER: POWER SUPPLY
Refer to instructions for the appropriate motor in the Operation & Installation Manual - Drum Pump Motors.
4. Noise Level
Refer to specifications in the Operation & Installation Manual - Drum Pump Motors.
5. Modifications and Spare Parts
Any changes concerning the service of the pump as originally purchased can be executed only after written approval from
Finish Thompson Inc. It is recommended to use only genuine Finish Thompson Inc. spare parts and approved accessories. The
use of non-original spare parts or non-approved accessories will void warranty and removes any responsibility on the manufac turer’s behalf for any damage caused to people or things.
6. Cleaning
It is highly recommended to flush pumps with clean water or some other neutralizing fluid compatible with pump materials
when done pumping or when switching chemicals.

Installation & Maintenance Instructions
Installation
1. Remove the drum pump and motor from its packaging and inspect for shipping damage.
2. Turn the pump coupling to verify there is no binding.
3. Adjust the coupling so that the empty slots in the insert are at 3 and 9 o’clock with the pump discharge at 12
o’clock.
5. Install the motor according to instructions in the appropriate motor manual.
6. Attach discharge hose and install pump into the container.
Maintenance
Disassembly
1. Loosen the setscrew and remove the half coupling (item 2) from the end of the pump shaft.
2. Gently holding the intake tube so as not to crush the tube, use a 3/8” punch and hammer to drive the bottom
of the shaft (item 11) toward the top. This will drive the bearing assembly (item 3) out of the top of the
pump. Stop when the bearing assembly is exposed.
3. Use a 1/8” punch and drive out the roll pin that is located in the center of the bearing assembly (item 3), and
slide the bearing assembly off of the shaft.
4. Remove the pump shaft assembly by pushing it down through the intake tube (item 7) and out the bottom.
5. Remove the seal assembly (item 4) and discard. Never re-use a seal assembly.
Inspection
1. Visually inspect the impeller assembly (item 8), the center bearings (item 10), and the compressor (item 12)
for damage and replace as needed.
2. Inspect the bearing assembly for rust, corrosion, or tightness and replace as needed.
3. Inspect the pump shaft in the seal area and the center bearing areas for excessive wear. Replace the shaft if
needed.
5
Reassembly
1. Insert the shaft assembly up through the bottom of the tube until it sticks out the top of the pump head.
2. Warm up the seal assembly (item 4) prior to installation by using a heat lamp or socking them in hot water.
This will aid in the ease of proper seal installation. Make sure there are no metal burrs on the pump shaft in
the bearing hole location or the coupling half setscrew location that could “cut” the seal during installation.
3. Lubricate the end of the shaft with Vaseline to aid in the seal installation. Carefully install the seal down
over the shaft with the two “slots” facing up toward the bearing assembly. The raised lip in the center of the
seal (that faces the bottom of the pump) must go on straight and not buckle on one side.
4. After the seal is on the shaft correctly, install the bearing assembly (item 3) onto the shaft. Use the bearing
assembly to push the seal further down the shaft until the hole in the center of the bearing assembly matches
up to the hole in the shaft. Install the roll pin through the bearing assembly and shaft.
5. Line up the bearing assembly with the top of the pump head and press the bearing in. Use a block of wood
and a mallet if needed.
6. Install the coupling half and tighten the setscrew into the dimple in the shaft. Spin the coupling to insure
there is no binding.
