Installation Information
Installation of the motor adapter requires separation of the electric motor from the EQ Series pump wet end. Electrical power must be completely disconnected and locked out before servicing.
Proper alignment of the motor adapter, seal plate, motor shaft, and pump hydraulic components is important during reassembly. Inspect the mechanical shaft seal, seal plate, impeller, diffuser, O-rings, motor supports, and mounting hardware while the pump is disassembled.
