c) DRAINING: If the pump is subject to freezing temperatures,
drain the pump by removing the drain plug and priming plug.
After liquid has drained, run the pump for a few seconds to
get the last liquid out of the impeller. Make sure the suction
and discharge lines are free of liquid.
3) Assemble the adapter (6) onto the engine using the bolts
and new sealing washers. Make sure that the fl inger (11) is
on the shaft. NOTE: There may be more than one position that
the adapter can be bolted to the engine but only one position is
correct. IMPORTANT: Be careful not to damage the ceramic
seat or shaft, when assembling the adapter to the engine.

at one end only, or at both ends. If the chamfer is only on
one end, the chamfer end must be towards the engine. Slide
it onto the shaft.
- Make sure both faces of the seal are clean, then slide seal

bolt and washer. Use thread locking compound on impeller
bolt.
6) Replace the gasket (3) and the washers. Then assemble the
