PREINSTALLATION INSPECTION

The pump assembly was inspected and tested be-
fore shipment from the factory. Before installation,
inspect the pump for damage which may have oc-
curred during shipment. Check as follows:

a. Inspect the pump for cracks, dents, damaged

threads, and other obvious damage.

b. Check for and tighten loose attaching hard-

ware. Since gaskets tend to shrink after dry-
ing, check for loose hardware at mating sur-
faces.

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 per-
form duties as instructed.

e. If the pump and motor have been stored for

more than 12 months, some of the compo-
nents or lubricants may have exceeded their
maximum shelf life. These

must be inspected

or replaced to ensure maximum pump serv-
ice.
