Edition 03/2011
Secure drive magnet assembly 858 on the drive 
shaft 213 on the flat pivot point.
Caution! Magnetic forces! 
 
Risk of accident !
Insert wavy spring washer 934/4 and tighten the 
hex. socket screw 914/5 to a torque of 40 Nm. For 
this purpose, do not use any magnetisable tools if 
at all possible. 
7.8.3 Trial assembly of the slide-in unit
Without adhesive 
Without O-rings 412/3, 412/4 
For assembly, see Section 7.8.3.
Dismantled trial-assembled unit and perform 
assembly. 
7.8.4 Assembly of slide-in unit
With the O-rings 412/3, 412/4 
With 1 drop of adhesive on each shaft thread, e.g. 
Loctite 243 from Loctite or an equivalent. 
Only one drop of the adhesive is to be applied per 
thread. 
Otherwise the next dismantling operation will be 
more difficult or no longer possible without 
destroying components. 
The mating surfaces of pump shaft/inner magnet 
assembly and pump shaft/impeller must be 
completely clean. 
Place impeller 230 with the suction side facing 
downwards on the work bench. 
Press shaft sleeve 523/1 into the impeller 230.
Insert O-ring 412/3 into the appropriate groove in 
the impeller 230.
Check whether the mating surfaces of the pump 
shaft 211 and impeller 230 are absolutely clean 
and the thread is burr-free. 
Provide one thread turn of the pump shaft 211 with 
adhesive, e.g. Loctite 243. 
Screw pump shaft 211 into the impeller 230. 
Clamp pump shaft 211 with the flat pivot point in a 
vice. Use smooth vice jaws for this purpose. 
Tighten the impeller 230 using a strap wrench or 
appropriate special tool (see Section 11.3). 
Place the assembled unit in turn, with the suction 
side of the impeller 230 facing downwards, on the 
work bench. 
Push bearing sleeve 529/1 over the pump shaft 
211 and position the flat pivot point in the impeller 
230.
Push the bearing bush 545/1 onto the bearing 
sleeve 529/1.
Push axial bearing 314/1 onto the pump shaft 211.
Move plain bearing pedestal 339 into assembly 
position using a crane. For this purpose the 4 M10 
tapped bores on the motor side can be used as a 
slinging aid (ring bolt etc.). 
Carefully lower the plain bearing pedestal 339 
centrally over the pump shaft 211. Make sure that 
the positive connections of the axial bearing 314/1 
and the bearing bush 545/1 engage properly. If 
assembly is performed correctly, there is a 
distance of approx. 3 mm between the impeller 
230 and the plain bearing pedestal 339.
Push the axial bearing 314/2 over the pump shaft 
211 and position in the plain bearing pedestal 339.
Insert bearing bush 545/2 into the plain bearing 
pedestal 339.
Press shaft sleeve 523/2 into the inner magnet 
assembly 859.
Push O-ring 412/4 over the pump shaft 211.
Check whether the mating surfaces of the pump 
shaft 211 and inner magnet assembly 859 are 
absolutely clean and the thread is burr-free. 
Provide one thread turn of the pump shaft 211 with 
adhesive, e.g. Loctite 243. 
Push bearing sleeve 529/2 half its length onto the 
pump shaft 211.
Carefully screw inner magnet assembly 859 onto 
the pump shaft 211. It is imperative to ensure that 
the flat pivot point of the bearing sleeve 529/2 
engages the positive connection of the inner 
magnet assembly 859 and thus also turns during 
the screwing process. 
Using a strap wrench or special tool, screw the 
inner magnet assembly 859 and the impeller 230 
firmly together. 
The axial play Z of the plain bearings is 0.4 to 
1.3 mm. See sectional drawing Section 10.1.
7.8.5 Final assembly
Transport the drive unit using a crane. The ring
bolt on the bearing pedestal flange can 
be used for this purpose. 
Screw the two assembly threaded
rods M 16 provided into the tapped bores of the 
bearing pedestal flange. 
Press the drive unit into the lantern chamber using 
the flat pivot point of the threaded rods and an 
open-jaw wrench (size 13). The threaded rods 
must be turned evenly and alternately provided 
can be screwed into the bearing pedestal flange at 
12 o'clock. 
Beforehand, remove the threaded sealing cap. 
As a result, two slinging aids are available. 
Push the entire slide-in unit with housing gasket 
401 into the housing 100 and screw together with 
housing screws 901/3 and tightening washers 
552/3.
