Cleaning and Inspection.
1. Clean all parts with an approved cleaning solvent and dry thoroughly.
2. Inspect the gear reduction assembly for signs of wear and damage. Inspect the circulating
pump for leaky packing, signs of wear, and other damage. Inspect the pump coupling for
signs of wear or other damage.
3. Inspect the mounting hardware for cracks, breaks, and damaged threads. Replace any
defective parts.
e. Installation. Refer to Fig. 17 and install the circulating pump with gear reduction assembly and
pump coupling.
f. Alignment. Refer to Fig. 18 and align the circulating pump motor, the pump coupling, and the
circulating pump with gear reduction assembly.
g. Packing Nut Adjustment. The two packing nuts which; surround the shaft of the circulating pump
are accessible from the drive end of the pump. Tighten the nuts equally or loosen equally as
necessary to prevent leakage or reduce friction. In the event the nuts cannot be loosened for a
friction adjustment without causing leakage, check packing for replacement.
