should always be used in installing carbon graphite
bushings Be sure the bushing is started straight. DO
NOT STOP -the pressing operation until the bushing is
in proper position. Starting and stopping this operation
invariably results in a bushing failure. Carbon graphite
bushings with extra interference fits are frequently
furnished for high temperature operation. These
bushings must be installed by a shrink fit. Heat the iron
casing or idler to 875° F. and install cool bushings with
an arbor press. If facilities are not available for this
temperature, it is possible to install with 450°
F.
temperature. However the lower the temperature the
greater the possibility of cracking the bushing. Check
bushings for cracks after installation. For additional
information on high temperature applications see
Engineering Service Bulletin ESB-3.
All parts should be checked for wear before the pump is
put together. When making major repairs, such as
replacing a rotor and shaft, it is usually considered
advisable to also install a new head and idler. When
making minor repairs, where only an idler bushing and
idler pin are required. other new parts are usually not
necessary. When all the necessary parts are available.
the pump can be assembled
Reassembly
1. Thrust washers used in Q, M and N size pumps
should be assembled on the rotor hub and rotor
bearing sleeve. Put the plain washer on the two
locating pins on the rotor hub. Put the grooved face
washer on the pins on the rotor bearing sleeve with
the grooved face toward the rotor.
2. Remove all burrs and rough surfaces from the rotor
and shaft and assemble in the casing. Start the
shaft through the casing or rotor bearing sleeve
bushing and slowly turning the rotor. push it into the
casing as far as it will go.
3. Place the head gaskets on the' head. The proper
amount of gaskets should be used to provide the
necessary end clearance within the pump so it turns
freely with no appreciable end play. The
