Goulds Pumps 3910 11th ed. - IOM - Manual (Page 46)

NOTE: Coat internal surfaces of bearings with
lubricant to be used in service.
7. Press radial INPRO (123) into radial end cover (119A).
Ensure expulsion port is at 6 o'clock position and is
properly seated. Install radial bearing end cover (119A),
and new end cover gasket (360) on bearing frame (228)
(Fig. 39). For SA pumps, press radial INPRO (123) into
bearing frame 228. Ensure expulsion port is at 6 o'clock
position and is properly seated (Fig. 40).
8. For SX, MX, LA, and XLX pumps, install and tighten
radial end cover bolt/bearing frame screws (370P)
evenly to the torque values shown in Table 7.
9. Coat outer races of bearings (112) and (168) with
compatible oil.
10. Coat internal bearing surfaces of bearing frame (228)
with compatible oil.
11. Carefully guide shaft/bearing assembly into bearing
frame (228) until thrust bearing (112) is seated against
shoulder of frame (Fig. 41).
NOTE: Do not force assembly together.
12. Check shaft (122) for free turning. If rubbing or
binding is detected, determine cause and correct.
13. For SX, MX, LA, and XLX pumps, install three (3)
thrust bearing end cover shims (390C) on the thrust
bearing end cover (109A) and align holes. For SA
pumps, install three (3) thrust bearing end cover
gaskets (360A) on the bearing end cover (109A).
Align the gasket to the end cover so that the openings
in the gaskets align with the oil grooves on the end
cover (Fig. 42).
$
! CAUTION
Failure to align gasket with oil grooves will result in
bearing failure from lack of lubrication.
