For Model ST2037, ST2047, ST2047B and ST2038P:
1. Position pump upside down.
2. Remove strainer.
3. Remove casing.
4. Remove the pump impeller.
5. Remove the liner.
6. Remove the oil plug and packing.
OIL CHECK
1. Check pump oil at oil cavity plug (Figure 11). Check every 300
hours and change hydraulic oil every 6 months (1,000 hours)
or as needed.
2. While checking the hydraulic oil level, also check the
condition of the hydraulic oil in the seal cavity. Discolored
milky oil indicates a failure of the water seal. If this occurs,
replace water seal.
3. If oil level is low fill with SAE 10 weight non-detergent
hydraulic oil (i.e. Shell Turbo 32 or equivalent). Fill oil cavity
75% to 85% full (allow air space for expansion). See Table
1 for mechanical seal oil capacity.
IMPELLER
1. If impeller is defective or badly worn, replace impeller imme-
diately.
