12. LOCK COLLAR INSTALLATION – GNX(H)4 Models 

a.  Slide the lock collar (24A) over the shaft and against 

the bearing (24), with the counterbored side towards 
the bearing  

b.  Push the collar (24A) forcibly against the bearing (24) 

by hand, while tightening the two setscrews (24B). 
Install and tighten the two jam nuts (24C) against the 
collar  

c. 

Repeat this procedure on the opposite pump end. 
After installing both lock collars, verify the shaft turns 
freely when rotated by hand 

13. Attach a new bearing cover gasket (26) and the outboard 

bearing cover (27) to the outboard head. Install and 
torque the bearing cover capscrews (28) to 15 ft-lbf (20 
Nm). 

14. Lightly oil Adapter O-ring (135B) and install on inboard 

head. 

15. Ensure the key (35) is installed on the pump shaft.  With 

the aid of a lifting device, slide the motor and gearbox 
assembly towards the pump engaging gearbox shaft 
receiver with the pump shaft.   

16. Install the Adapter screws (20C) into the inboard head 

and torque to 23 ft-lbf. 

17. RELIEF VALVE ASSEMBLY 

a.  Insert the valve (9) into the relief valve bore of the 

casing with the fluted end inward. 

b.  Install the relief valve spring (8) and spring guide (7) 

against the valve. 

c.  Attach a new relief valve O-ring (10) and the valve 

cover (4) on the cylinder. 

d.  Screw the relief valve adjusting screw (2) with locknut 

(3) into the valve cover (4) until it makes contact with 
the spring guide (7). 

e.  After the relief valve has been adjusted, tighten the 

Locknut (3) and install the relief valve cap (1) and O-
ring (88). 

NOTICE: 

The relief valve setting MUST be tested and adjusted 
more precisely before putting the pump into service.  
Refer to "Relief Valve Setting and Adjustment" 

 

 

Operation without guards in place can 
cause serious personal injury, major 
property damage, or death. 

 

Do not operate 

without guard in 

place. 

18.  Reinstall coupling, shaft key, and coupling guards.  

19.  Refer to “Pre-Start Up Check List” and “Start Up 

Procedures” sections of this manual prior to restarting 
pump operation.
