SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
STRAINERS
Strainers must be cleaned regularly to avoid pump
starvation. Schedule will depend upon the application and
conditions.
LUBRICATION
NOTICE:
To avoid possible entanglement in moving parts do not
lubricate pump bearings or any other parts while pump is
running
Pump bearings should be lubricated every one to twelve weeks
(AT MINIMUM), depending on the application, and operating
conditions.
Recommended Grease:
Mobil® - Mobilgrease XHP222,
Exxon® - RONNEX MP Grease,
or equivalent.
Greasing Procedure:
1. Remove the grease relief fittings (76A) from the bearing
cover (27) and mounting bracket (108 or 108B).
2.
SLOWLY
apply grease with a hand gun until grease begins
to escape from the grease relief fitting port.
3. Replace the grease relief fittings (76A).
DO NOT overgrease pump bearings. While it is normal for
some grease to escape from the grease tell-tale hole after
lubrication, excessive grease on pumps equipped with
mechanical seals can cause seal failure.
