SAFETY − SECTION A
This information applies to 10 Series en­gine driven pumps. Refer to the manual accompanying the engine before at­tempting to begin operation.
Because pump installations are seldom identical, this manual cannot possibly provide detailed instructions and pre­cautions for each specific application. Therefore, it is the owner/installer’s re­sponsibility to ensure that applications not addressed in this manual are per­formed only after establishing that nei­ther operator safety nor pump integrity are compromised by the installation.
Before attempting to open or service the pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man­ual.
2. Shut down the engine and take precautions to ensure that the pump will remain inoperative.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool if overheated.
4. Check the temperature before opening any covers, plates, or plugs.
5. Close the suction and discharge valves.
6. Vent the pump slowly and cau­tiously.
7. Drain the pump.
This pump is designed to handle dirty water containing specified entrained
solids. Do not attempt to pump volatile, corrosive, or flammable liquids which may damage the pump or endanger per­sonnel as a result of pump failure.
Use lifting and moving equipment in good repair and with adequate capacity to prevent injuries to personnel or dam­age to equipment. Suction and dis­charge hoses and piping must be re­moved from the pump before lifting.
After the pump has been positioned, make certain that the pump and all pip­ing connections are tight, properly sup­ported and secure before operation.
Do not operate the pump against a closed discharge valve for long periods of time. If operated against a closed dis­charge valve, pump components will deteriorate, and the liquid could come to a boil, build pressure, and cause the pump casing to rupture or explode.
Do not remove plates, covers, gauges, pipe plugs, or fittings from an over­heated pump. Vapor pressure within the pump can cause parts being disen­gaged to be ejected with great force. Al­low the pump to cool before servicing.

Do not operate an internal combustion engine in an explosive atmosphere. When operating internal combustion engines in an enclosed area, make cer­tain that exhaust fumes are piped to the outside. These fumes contain carbon monoxide, a deadly gas that is color­less, tasteless, and odorless.
Fuel used by internal combustion en­gines presents an extreme explosion and fire hazard. Make certain that all fuel lines are securely connected and free of leaks. Never refuel a hot or run­ning engine. Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Always use the correct type of fuel.
Never tamper with the governor to gain more power. The governor establishes safe operating limits that should not be exceeded. The maximum continuous operating speed for this pump is 3600 RPM.

INSTALLATION − SECTION B
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Since pump installations are seldom identical, this section offers only general recommendations and practices required to inspect, position, and ar­range the pump and piping.
Most of the information pertains to a standard static lift application where the pump is positioned above the free level of liquid to be pumped.
If installed in a flooded suction application where the liquid is supplied to the pump under pressure, some of the information such as mounting, line configuration, and priming must be tailored to the

specific application. Since the pressure supplied to the pump is critical to performance and safety, be sure to limit the incoming pressure to 50% of the maximum permissible operating pressure as shown on the pump performance curve (see Sec­tion E, Page 1).
For further assistance, contact your Gorman-Rupp distributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company.
Pump Dimensions
See Figure 1 for the approximate physical dimen­sions of this pump.
PREINSTALLATION INSPECTION
The pump assembly was inspected and tested be­fore shipment from the factory. Before installation, inspect the pump for damage which may have oc­curred during shipment. Check as follows:
Figure 1. Pump Models 13D1−19
a. Inspect the pump and engine for cracks,
dents, damaged threads, and other obvious damage.
b. Check for and tighten loose attaching hard-
ware. Since gaskets tend to shrink after dry­ing, check for loose hardware at mating sur­faces.
PAGE B − 1INSTALLATION

c. Carefully read all tags, decals, and markings
on the pump assembly, and perform all duties indicated.
d. Check levels and lubricate as necessary. Re-
fer to LUBRICATION in the MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR section of this manual and per­form duties as instructed.
e. If the pump and
more than 12 months, some of the compo­nents or lubricants may have exceeded their maximum shelf life. These must be inspected or replaced to ensure maximum pump serv­ice.
If the maximum shelf life has been exceeded, or if anything appears to be abnormal, contact your Gorman-Rupp distributor or the factory to deter­mine the repair or updating policy. Do not put the pump into service until appropriate action has been taken.
engine have been stored for
POSITIONING PUMP
The pump assembly can be seriously damaged if the cables or chains used to lift and move the unit are improperly wrapped around the pump.
Mounting
Locate the pump in an accessible place as close as practical to the liquid being pumped. Level mount­ing is essential for proper operation.
The pump may have to be supported or shimmed to provide for level operation or to eliminate vibra­tion.
To ensure sufficient lubrication and fuel supply to the engine, do not position the pump and engine more than 15_ off horizontal for continuous opera­tion. The pump and engine may be positioned up to 30_ off horizontal for intermittent operation only; however, the engine manufacturer should be consulted for continuous operation at angles greater than 15_.
Use lifting and moving equipment in good repair and with adequate capacity to prevent injuries to personnel or dam­age to equipment. The bail is intended for use in lifting the pump assembly only. Suction and discharge hoses and piping must be removed from the pump before lifting.
Lifting
Use lifting equipment with a capacity of at least 650 pounds (295 kg.). The pump weighs approxi-
mately 130 pounds (59 kg.) not including the weight of accessories or suction and discharge piping. Customer installed equipment such as suc­tion and discharge piping must be removed before attempting to lift.
Clearance
When positioning the pump, allow a minimum clearance of 18 inches (457 mm) in front of the back cover to permit removal of the cover and easy access to the pump interior.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE PIPING
Pump performance is adversely effected by in­creased suction lift, discharge elevation, and fric­tion losses. See the performance curve and notes on Page E-1 to be sure your overall application al­lows pump to operate within the safe operation range.
Materials
Either pipe or hose maybe used for suction and discharge lines; however, the materials must be compatible with the liquid being pumped. If hose is used in suction lines, it must be the rigid-wall, rein-

forced type to prevent collapse under suction. Us­ing piping couplings in suction lines is not recom­mended.
Line Configuration
Keep suction and discharge lines as straight as possible to minimize friction losses. Make mini­mum use of elbows and fittings, which substan­tially increase friction loss. If elbows are necessary, use the long-radius type to minimize friction loss.
Connections to Pump
Before tightening a connecting flange, align it ex­actly with the pump port. Never pull a pipe line into place by tightening the flange bolts and/or cou­plings.
Lines near the pump must be independently sup­ported to avoid strain on the pump which could cause excessive vibration, decreased bearing life, and increased shaft and seal wear. If hose-type lines are used, they should have adequate support to secure them when filled with liquid and under pressure.
Fittings
Suction lines should be the same size as the pump inlet. If reducers are used in suction lines, they should be the eccentric type, and should be in­stalled with the flat part of the reducers uppermost to avoid creating air pockets. Valves are not nor­mally used in suction lines, but if a valve is used, install it with the stem horizontal to avoid air pock­ets.
Strainers
If a strainer is furnished with the pump, be certain to use it; any spherical solids which pass through a strainer furnished with the pump will also pass through the pump itself.
If a strainer is not furnished with the pump, but is installed by the pump user, make certain that the total area of the openings in the strainer is at least three or four times the cross section of the suction line, and that the openings will not permit passage of solids larger than the solids handling capability of the pump.
This pump is designed to handle up to 1 1/2-inch (38,1 mm) diameter spherical solids.
Gauges
Most pumps are drilled and tapped for installing discharge pressure and vacuum suction gauges. If these gauges are desired for pumps that are not tapped, drill and tap the suction and discharge lines not less than 18 inches (457 mm) from the suction and discharge ports and install the lines. Installation closer to the pump may result in erratic readings.
SUCTION LINES
To avoid air pockets which could affect pump prim­ing, the suction line must be as short and direct as possible. When operation involves a suction lift, the line must always slope upward to the pump from the source of the liquid being pumped; if the line slopes down to the pump at any point along the suction run, air pockets will be created.
Sealing
Since even a slight leak will affect priming, head, and capacity, especially when operating with a high suction lift, all connections in the suction line should be sealed with pipe dope to ensure an air­tight seal. Follow the sealant manufacturer’s rec­ommendations when selecting and applying the pipe dope. The pipe dope should be compatible with the liquid being pumped.
Suction Lines In Sumps
If a single suction line is installed in a sump, it should be positioned away from the wall of the sump at a distance equal to 1-1/2 times the diame­ter of the suction line.
If there is a liquid flow from an open pipe into the sump, the flow should be kept away from the suc­tion inlet because the inflow will carry air down into the sump, and air entering the suction line will re­duce pump efficiency.
PAGE B − 3INSTALLATION
Page 11
OM−05463 10 SERIES
If it is necessary to position inflow close to the suc­tion inlet, install a baffle between the inflow and the suction inlet at a distance 1-1/2 times the diameter of the suction pipe. The baffle will allow entrained air to escape from the liquid before it is drawn into the suction inlet.
If two suction lines are installed in a single sump, the flow paths may interact, reducing the efficiency of one or both pumps. To avoid this, position the suction inlets so that they are separated by a dis­tance equal to at least 3 times the diameter of the suction pipe.
Suction Line Positioning
The depth of submergence of the suction line is critical to efficient pump operation. recommended minimum submergence vs. veloc-
ity.
Figure 2 shows
NOTE
The pipe submergence required may be reduced by installing a standard pipe increaser fitting at the end of the suction line. The larger opening size will reduce the inlet velocity. Calculate the required submergence using the following formula based on the increased opening size (area or diameter).
Figure 2. Recommended Minimum Suction Line Submergence vs. Velocity
DISCHARGE LINES
Siphoning
Do not terminate the discharge line at a level lower than that of the liquid being pumped unless a si­phon breaker is used in the line. Otherwise, a si­phoning action causing damage to the pump could result.
PAGE B − 4 INSTALLATION
Valves
If a throttling valve is desired in the discharge line, use a valve as large as the largest pipe to minimize friction losses. Never install a throttling valve in a suction line.
A check valve in the discharge line is normally rec­ommended, but it is not necessary in low dis­charge head applications.
Page 12
10 SERIES OM−05463
With high discharge heads, it is recommended that a throttling valve and a system check valve be in­stalled in the discharge line to protect the pump from excessive shock pressure and reverse rota­tion when it is stopped.
If the application involves a high discharge head, gradually close the discharge throttling valve before stopping the pump.
Bypass Lines
If a system check valve is used due to high dis­charge head, it may be necessary to vent trapped air from the top of the pump during the priming process. This may be accomplished by installing a bypass line from the top of the pump, back to the source of liquid. The end of the bypass line must be submerged. The line must be large enough to pre­vent clogging, but not so large as to affect pump discharge capacity.

OPERATION − SECTION C
Review all SAFETY information in Section A. Follow the instructions on all tags, labels and decals attached to the pump.
This pump is designed to handle dirty water containing specified entrained solids. Do not attempt to pump volatile, corrosive, or flammable liquids which may damage the pump or endanger per­sonnel as a result of pump failure.
Never tamper with the governor to gain more power. The governor establishes safe operating limits that should not be exceeded. The maximum continuous operating speed for this pump is 4000 RPM.
Add liquid to the pump casing when:
1. The pump is being put into service for the first time.
2. The pump has not been used for a consider­able length of time.
3. The liquid in the pump casing has evapo­rated.
Once the pump casing has been filled, the pump will prime and reprime as necessary.
After filling the pump casing, reinstall and tighten the fill plug. Do not attempt to operate the pump unless all connect­ing piping is securely installed. Other­wise, liquid in the pump forced out un­der pressure could cause injury to per­sonnel.
To fill the pump, remove the pump casing fill cover or fill plug in the top of the casing, and add clean liquid until the casing is filled. Replace the fill cover or fill plug before operating the pump.
PRIMING
Install the pump and piping as described in IN­STALLATION. Make sure that the piping connec-
tions are tight, and that the pump is securely mounted. Check that the pump is properly lubri­cated (see LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR).
This pump is self-priming, but the pump should never be operated unless there is liquid in the pump casing.
Never operate this pump unless there is liquid in the pump casing. The pump will not prime when dry. Extended operation of a dry pump will destroy the seal assembly.
STARTING
Consult the operations manual furnished with the engine.
OPERATION
Pump speed and operating condition points must be within the continuous per­formance range shown on the curve. (See Section E, Page 1.)
Lines With a Bypass

line. Air from the suction line will be discharged through the bypass line back to the wet well during the priming cycle. When the pump is fully primed and liquid is flowing steadily from the bypass line, open the discharge throttling valve. Liquid will then continue to circulate through the bypass line while the pump is in operation.
Do not remove plates, covers, gauges, pipe plugs, or fittings from an over­heated pump. Vapor pressure within the pump can cause parts being disen-

gaged to be ejected with great force. Al­low the pump to cool before servicing.
Open all valves in the discharge line and start the engine. Priming is indicated by a positive reading on the discharge pressure gauge or by a quieter operation. The pump may not prime immediately because the suction line must first fill with liquid. If the pump fails to prime within five minutes, stop it and check the suction line for leaks.
After the pump has been primed, partially close the discharge line throttling valve in order to fill the line slowly and guard against excessive shock pres­sure which could damage pipe ends, gaskets, sprinkler heads, and any other fixtures connected to the line. When the discharge line is completely filled, adjust the throttling valve to the required flow rate.
Leakage
No leakage should be visible at pump mating sur­faces, or at pump connections or fittings. Keep all line connections and fittings tight to maintain maxi­mum pump efficiency.
Liquid Temperature And Overheating
The maximum liquid temperature for this pump is 110_ F (43_C). Do not apply it at a higher operating temperature.
Overheating can occur if operated with the valves in the suction or discharge lines closed. Operating against closed valves could bring the liquid to a boil, build pressure, and cause the pump to rup­ture or explode. If overheating occurs, stop the pump and allow it to cool before servicing it. Refill
the pump casing
with cool liquid.
Strainer Check
If a suction strainer has been shipped with the pump or installed by the user, check the strainer regularly, and clean it as necessary. The strainer should also be checked if pump flow rate begins to drop. If a vacuum suction gauge has been in­stalled, monitor and record the readings regularly to detect strainer blockage.
Never introduce air or steam pressure into the pump casing or piping to remove a blockage. This could result in personal injury or damage to the equipment. If backflushing is absolutely neces­sary, liquid pressure must be limited to 50% of the maximum permissible operating pressure shown on the pump performance curve (see Section E, Page 1).
Pump Vacuum Check
With the pump inoperative, install a vacuum gauge in the system, using pipe dope on the threads. Block the suction line and start the pump. At oper­ating speed the pump should pull a vacuum of 20 inches (508 mm) or more of mercury. If it does not, check for air leaks in the seal, gasket, or discharge valve.
Open the suction line, and read the vacuum gauge with the pump primed and at operation speed. Shut off the pump. The vacuum gauge reading will immediately drop proportionate to static suction lift, and should then stabilize. If the vacuum reading falls off rapidly after stabilization, an air leak exists. Before checking for the source of the leak, check the point of installation of the vacuum gauge.
STOPPING
Never halt the flow of liquid suddenly. If the liquid being pumped is stopped abruptly, damaging

shock waves can be transmitted to the pump and piping system. Close all connecting valves slowly.
On engine driven pumps, reduce the throttle speed slowly and allow the engine to idle briefly be­fore stopping.
If the application involves a high discharge head, gradually close the discharge throttling valve before stopping the pump.
After stopping the pump, remove the engine igni­tion key to ensure that the pump will remain inop­erative.
Cold Weather Preservation
In below freezing conditions, drain the pump to prevent damage from freezing. Also, clean out any solids by flushing with a hose. Operate the pump for approximately one minute; this will remove any remaining liquid that could freeze the pump rotat­ing parts. If the pump will be idle for more than a few hours, or if it has been pumping liquids con­taining a large amount of solids, drain the pump, and flush it thoroughly with clean water. To prevent large solids from clogging the drain port and pre­venting the pump from completely draining, insert a rod or stiff wire in the drain port, and agitate the liquid during the draining process. Clean out any remaining solids by flushing with a hose.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Since pump applications are seldom identical, and pump wear is directly affected by such things as the abrasive qualities, pressure and temperature of the liquid being pumped, this section is intended only to provide general recommendations and practices for preventive maintenance. Regardless of the application however, following a routine pre­ventive maintenance schedule will help assure trouble-free performance and long life from your Gorman-Rupp pump. For specific questions con­cerning your application, contact your Gorman­Rupp distributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company.
Record keeping is an essential component of a good preventive maintenance program. Changes in suction and discharge gauge readings (if so
equipped) between regularly scheduled inspec­tions can indicate problems that can be corrected before system damage or catastrophic failure oc­curs. The appearance of wearing parts should also be documented at each inspection for comparison as well. Also, if records indicate that a certain part (such as the seal) fails at approximately the same duty cycle, the part can be checked and replaced before failure occurs, reducing unscheduled down time.
For new applications, a first inspection of wearing parts at 250 hours will give insight into the wear rate for your particular application. Subsequent inspec­tions should be performed at the intervals shown on the chart below. Critical applications should be inspected more frequently.

PUMP AND SEAL DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Follow the instructions on all tags, label and de­cals attached to the pump.
This pump requires little service due to its rugged, minimum-maintenance design. However, if it be­comes necessary to inspect or replace the wearing parts, follow these instructions which are keyed to the sectional views (see Figures 1 and 2) and the accompanying parts lists.
As described on the following pages, this manual will alert personnel to known procedures which re­quire special attention, to those which could dam­age equipment, and to those which could be dan­gerous to personnel. However, this manual cannot possibly anticipate and provide detailed precau­tions for every situation that might occur during maintenance of the unit. Therefore, it is the respon­sibility of the owner/maintenance personnel to en­sure that only safe, established maintenance pro- cedures are used, and that any procedures not ad­dressed in this manual are performed only after es- tablishing that neither personal safety nor pump in­tegrity are compromised by such practices.
Before attempting to service the pump, shut down the engine and take precautions to ensure that it will remain inoperative. Close all valves in the suc­tion and discharge lines.
For engine disassembly and repair, consult the lit­erature supplied with the engine, or contact your local Honda engine representative.
4. Check the temperature before opening any covers, plates, or plugs.
5. Close the suction and discharge valves.
6. Vent the pump slowly and cau­tiously.
7. Drain the pump.
Use lifting and moving equipment in good repair and with adequate capacity to prevent injuries to personnel or dam­age to equipment. Suction and dis­charge hoses and piping must be re­moved from the pump before lifting.
Suction Check Valve Disassembly
(Figure 2)
Before attempting to service the pump, remove the pump casing drain plug (23) and drain the pump. Clean and reinstall the drain plug.
To service the suction check valve, remove the suc­tion piping. Remove the nuts (36) securing the suc­tion flange (34) to the pump casing (1). Pull the check valve assembly (37) from the suction port.
If no further disassembly is required, see Suction
Check Valve Installation.
Back Cover Removal
Before attempting to open or service the pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man­ual.
2. Shut down the engine and take precautions to ensure that the pump will remain inoperative.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool if overheated.
(Figure 2)
The wear plate assembly (22) can be serviced after the back cover assembly (29) has been removed.
Remove the wing nuts and flat washers (27 and 28) securing the back cover to the casing. Pull the back cover and assembled wear plate from the pump casing. Remove the cover plate gasket (33) and clean the mating surfaces.
Inspect the wear plate and if replacement is re­quired, remove the hardware (24 and 25) securing it to the back cover.

Pump Casing Removal
(Figure 2)
To service the impeller or seal assembly, discon­nect the discharge piping. See Figure 1 and re­move the hardware (12, 13 and 14) securing the pump casing to the base (3).
Support the pump casing (1) using a suitable hoist and sling, and remove the hardware (17 and 18) securing the pump casing to the intermediate (15). Separate the parts by pulling the casing straight away from the intermediate. If shims have been used under the mounting feet to level the pump casing, tie and tag these shims for ease of reas­sembly.
Remove the casing o-ring (21). Clean the mating surfaces of the intermediate and pump casing.
Impeller Removal
(Figure 2)
To loosen the impeller (2), tap the vanes of the im­peller in a counterclockwise direction (when facing the impeller) with a block of wood or a soft-faced mallet. Unscrew the impeller and replace it if cracked or badly worn. Use caution when remov­ing the impeller; tension on the seal spring will be released as the impeller is unscrewed.
Slide the impeller adjusting shims (4) off the impel­ler shaft. Tie and tag the shims or measure and re­cord their thickness for ease of reassembly.
Seal Removal and Disassembly
(Figures 2 and 3)
Remove the spring centering washer (5) and seal spring. Slide the shaft sleeve (6) and rotating por­tion of the seal off the shaft as an assembly. Lubri­cate the sleeve adjacent to the seal and work oil up under the rubber bellows. Slide the rotating portion of the seal off the shaft sleeve.
Remove the hardware (17 and 18) and carefully slide the intermediate (15) and stationary portion of the seal off the shaft as a unit. Use a suitably sized dowel to press the stationary element out of the in­termediate from the back side.
NOTE
The seal assembly may be removed without com­pletely disassembling the pump by using a pair of stiff wires with hooked ends to pull the seal station­ary seat out of the intermediate.
If no further disassembly is required, see Seal Reassembly and Installation.
Seal Reassembly and Installation
(Figures 2 and 3)
Clean the seal cavity and shaft with a cloth soaked in fresh cleaning solvent.
Most cleaning solvents are toxic and flammable. Use them only in a well ven­tilated area free from excessive heat, sparks, and flame. Read and follow all precautions printed on solvent contain­ers.
The seal is not normally reused because wear pat­terns on the finished faces cannot be realigned during reassembly. This could result in premature failure. If necessary to reuse an old seal in an emer­gency, carefully wash all metallic parts in fresh cleaning solvent and allow to dry thoroughly.
Handle the seal parts with extreme care to prevent damage. Be careful not to contaminate precision finished faces; even fingerprints on the faces can shorten seal life. If necessary, clean the faces with a non-oil based solvent and a clean, lint-free tissue. Wipe lightly in a concentric pattern to avoid scratching the faces.
Inspect the seal components for wear, scoring, grooves, and other damage that might cause leak­age. Clean and polish the shaft sleeve, or replace it if there are nicks or cuts on either end. If any com­ponents are worn, replace the complete seal; never mix old and new seal parts.
If a replacement seal is being used, remove it from the container and inspect the precision finished faces to ensure that they are free of any foreign matter.

Assemble the O-ring into the stationary seat. Press the stationary seat into the intermediate bore until fully seated. A push tube cut from a length of plastic pipe would aid this installation. The I.D. of the tube should be approximately the same as the I.D. of the seal spring.
Subassemble the rotating element into the retainer and bellows. Apply a drop of light oil on the preci­sion finished faces; never use grease. Use even pressure to carefully press this subassembly onto the sleeve (6) until the rotating element is just flush with the chamfered end of the sleeve.
Slide the sleeve and assembled rotating portion of the seal onto the shaft until the seal faces contact. Continue to push the sleeve through the seal until it seats squarely against the shaft shoulder.
Install the seal spring and spring centering washer.

Impeller Installation And Adjustment
(Figure 2)
Inspect the impeller and replace it if cracked or badly worn. Install the same thickness of impeller shims (4) as previously removed. Apply anti-seize to the shaft threads and screw the impeller onto the shaft until tight.
A clearance of .008 to .015 inch (0,20 to 0,38 mm) between the impeller and the intermediate is nec­essary for maximum pump efficiency. Measure this clearance and add or remove impeller shims until this clearance is reached.
Pump Casing Installation
(Figure 2)
Be sure the wear plate does not scrape against the impeller.
Secure the back cover assembly to the pump cas­ing using the hardware (27 and 28). Do not over tighten the wing nuts; they should be just tight enough to ensure a good seal at the back cover shoulder.
Suction Check Valve Installation
(Figure 2)
Inspect the check valve components and replace if required.
Position the check valve assembly (37) in the suc­tion port with the check valve plate (40) facing to­ward the inside of the pump casing. Install the suc­tion flange (34) and secure with the nuts (36). Check the operation of the check valve to ensure proper seating and free movement.
Final Pump Assembly
Secure the pump casing (1) to the intermediate with the hardware (17 and 18). Be careful not to damage the O-ring.
See Figure 1 and secure the pump casing to the base (3) with the hardware (12, 13 and 14). Be sure to reinstall any leveling shims used under the mounting feet of the pump casing.
Back Cover Installation
(Figure 2)
Inspect the wear plate (22) and replace it if badly worn or grooved. Install the wear plate on the back cover using the hardware (24 and 25).
Clean any scale or debris from the back cover shoulder and pump casing which might prevent a good seal.
NOTE
Apply a film of ‘Never-Seez’ or equivalent com­pound on the back cover shoulder or any surface which contacts the pump casing to ease future dis­assembly and to reduce rust and scale build up.
(Figure 1)
Be sure the pump and engine are securely
mounted to the base.
Install the suction and discharge lines and open all valves. Make certain that all piping connections are tight, properly supported and secure.
Be sure the engine has been properly lubricated, see LUBRICATION.
Remove the fill plug assembly (7). Fill the pump casing with clean liquid. Reinstall the fill plug and tighten it.
Refer to OPERATION, Section C, before putting the pump back into service.
