PREPARE THE ORIGINAL PUMP FOR RETURN

Caution

Two people are recommended to move the pump. Always move the pump slowly to avoid injury.

1. Remove the crank case cover [1] screw, then set aside.

Figure 36  

2. Turn the pump around, loosen the front cover [1] captive screws, then remove the front cover and the crankcase cover.

Figure 37  

3. Remove the dip stick [1] from the oil filler port [2].

Figure 38  

4. Retrieve the red plug [1] from the new pump, then screw it to the oil filler port.

Figure 39  

NOTE

Oil may leak from the oil filler port during shipment if the dip stick is not replaced with the red plug. Shipping services may refuse shipment if oil is leaking from the pump.

5. Replace the front cover and crankcase cover.
6. Mark the location of the lag bolt holes on the crate floor.
NOTE

To prevent the pump from moving during shipment, do not position the brackets in the same place as received. Load the original pump in the opposite direction as the new pump was loaded so the lag bolts are drilled on fresh wood. No predrilling is required.

Notice

Do not lift the pump by the safety valve or wet end. Roll or lift the pump by its frame when moving to avoid damage.

To secure the box to the crate, loop the straps through the metal buckles, then pull to tighten.
