FROM THE MARKET. THE PUMPS USE A SPECIAL BEARING WHICH IS PRE-FILLED WITH A
SPECIAL HIGH TEMPERATURE GREASE WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FROM US READILY).

RE-ASSEMBLY OF THE PUMPSET.
THE PUMP CAN BE RE-ASSEMBLED AS PER PROCEDURE GIVEN BELOW. PLEASE HOWEVER NOTE
THE FOLLOWING:
A) ALWAYS REPLACE NEW O-RINGS AND DISCARD OLD ONES.
B) REPLACE NEW LOCK WASHER WHEN RE-ASSEMBLING.
1. THE CHECKED/REPAIRED STATOR IS KEPT UPRIGHT AND THE TOP BRACKET IS FIT USING
THE FOUR BOLTS (31).
2. SLIDE BEARING COVER (38) ON ROTOR SHAFT.
3. FIT BEARINGS (IF REMOVED OR REPLACED) ON ROTOR SHAFT (USE EITHER A HAND
PRESS OR SHRINK THE SAME -- DO NOT HAMMER THE BEARINGS ON THE SHAFT-- YOU MAY
BEND THE SHAFT AND ALSO DAMAGE THE BEARINGS) AND FIT CIRCLIPS ON TOP AND BOTTOM
GROOVES ON SHAFT.(IF THE BEARINGS ARE SHRINK FITTED ON THE SHAFT, HEAT THE
BEARINGS IN OIL TO A MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE OF 120 DEGREES CELSIUS AS A HIGHER
TEMPERATURE WILL LIQUEFY THE GREASE IN THE BEARING AND RENDER THE SAME
UNUSABLE).
