Electrical Wiring
It is imperative that adequate wire size and proper over-current protection (fuse or circuit breaker) sizes are used.
The following chart can be used as a guideline. Refer to chart on page 10 for solenoid/relay information.

MAINTENANCE
ELECTRICAL CAUTION: DISCONNECT POWER SUPPLY TO PUMP BEFORE SERVICING UNIT. FOLLOW
PROPER LOCK-OUT/TAG-OUT PROCEDURES.
Maintenance intervals and normal parts replacement vary widely depending on numerous factors such as
frequency of system use and quality of flush water, etc. The chart below is intended strictly as a general
guideline. Owner discretion and consideration of actual usage must be the first basis for determining proper
maintenance levels.

If needed
A. CHANGE OIL
Fig. 1
The gear reducer oil should be changed after first 50 hours, thereafter
every 200 hours. Drain and fill with 90W oil or equivalent to bottom of
oil level inspection hole (opposite of output shaft). Grease the rod
bushing every 200 hours. (See item 9 on Pump Parts List)
B. DIAPHRAGM REPLACEMENT
CAUTION: KEEP HANDS AND ALL OTHER EXTREMITIES AWAY FROM ROD AND DIAPHRAGM. FLUSH
THE PUMPWITH CLEAN WATERAND DISINFECTANT BEFORE SERVICING.
When replacing a diaphragm, be sure to follow maintenance instructions B-D.
IMPORTANT: Incorrect alignments and clearances may cause pre-
mature diaphragm failure. It is important to insure that proper
alignment is achieved between the eccentric pin and the dia-
Fig. 2
phragm rod. Make sure that clearances are correct between the
diaphragm rod and the eccentric (Fig. 6) and also between the
eccentric and the gear reducer hub (Fig. 7).
To Remove the Diaphragm:
1. Remove pump cover (not used in SaniService applications).
2. Jog motor until rod is at bottom dead center position.
NOTE: See manual rotation method on page 4.
3. Close the maintenance valves (if installed) in the inlet and outlet
piping.
3

4. Disconnect electrical source to motor, following lock-out/tag-out procedure.
5. Remove the six (6) 5/16" fasteners around the circumference of the pump top.
6. Carefully remove the pump top from the pump body.
7. Turn the pump top upside down to expose the diaphragm and rod bolt. (See Fig. 3)
8. Remove the rod bolt.
9. Pull the diaphragm away from the rod.
10. Clean the old silicone adhesive from the top and bottom diaphragm plate and bottom of the rod.
11. Clean the old grease (if any) from the diaphragm sealing groove in the pump body.
To Install the Diaphragm:
1. Apply bead of silicone adhesive around the rod bolt hole on both sides of the diaphragm and let cure until the
silicone skins over.
2. Assemble the diaphragm, upper and lower plates to the rod.
3. Apply silicone grease to the
diaphragm sealing groove in the
pump body.
Fig. 3
Fig. 4
4. Carefully install the pump top and
diaphragm into the pump body.
Make certain the diaphragm is
properly seated in the groove in
the pump body.
5. Tighten the six (6) 5/16"
mounting bolts in a criss-cross
pattern as shown. (See Fig. 4)
Manual Rotation Method:
1. Remove motor from speed (gear) reducer.
Fig. 5
2. Wedge a large flat-bladed screwdriver or pry bar into hollow input
shaft keyway of speed reducer and rotate until rod is at bottom
dead center. (See Fig. 5)
C. ROD BUSHING INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT
NOTE: The rod and bearing must be replaced as an assembly
because the bearing is pressed into the rod using special
equipment.
Fig. 6
To Inspect:
1. Follow steps 1 through 11 in “To Remove the Diaphragm” on
page 3.
2. Remove the hex nuts from the eccentric pin and slide off the old
rod.
3. Inspect the bushing in the rod for wear by measuring the bushing
diameter. If worn beyond the service limits, replace the rod and
bushing.
New: 0.625" [15.88mm]
Service Limit: 0.630” [16mm]
To Install:
1. Lubricate the bushing and eccentric pin with anti-seize compound.
2. Slide rod onto the eccentric pin. (See Fig. 6)
4
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
3. Install and adjust first hex nut for proper bushing clearance of 0.020" [.50mm].
4. Hold adjustment nut from turning and install and tighten the lock nut.
5. Recheck bushing clearance.
IMPORTANT: INADEQUATE CLEARANCE OR LOOSE LOCK NUT WILL CAUSE THE ECCENTRIC TO BIND,
RESULTING IN PUMP STALLINGAND PREMATURE BUSHING WEAR.
6. Follow steps 1 through 5 in “To Install the Diaphragm” on page 4.
D. ECCENTRIC PIN INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT
To Inspect:
Fig. 7
1. Follow steps 1 and 2 in the rod bushing inspection and replacement
section.
2. Inspect the eccentric pin diameter for wear. If worn beyond theservice
limit replace the eccentric.
New: 0.6248" [15.87mm]
Service Limit: 0.622" [15.80mm]
3. Remove the eccentric by loosening the pinch bolt and jamming a flat-
blade screwdriver into the pinch bolt slot.
To Install:
1. Slide the new eccentric onto the output shaft until the output shaft is
flush with the end of the eccentric. Make certain the key is in the keyway
and flush with the end of the eccentric. (See Fig. 7)
2. Slide eccentric in or out to adjust eccentric to speed (gear) reducer
clearance of 0.075" [1.9mm], tighten pinch bolt and check clearance.
3. Follow step 3 (To Inspect) and steps 1 through 6 (To Install) in Rod
Bushing Inspection and Replacement section. (See Fig. 7)
IMPORTANT: IF OUTPUT SHAFT IS NOT FLUSH WITH ECCENTRIC AFTER CLEARANCE, ADJUSTMENT
WILL BE NECESSARY. LOOSEN THE OUTPUT SHAFT SET SCREWS AND SLIDE THE OUTPUT SHAFT IN
OR OUTACCORDINGLY.
E. DUCKBILL VALVE INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT
To Inspect:
1. Flush the pump with fresh water and disinfectant.
2. Close the maintenance valves (if installed) in the inlet and outlet piping.
3. Turn off/disconnect electrical source to the pump motor.
4. Disassemble the inlet/outlet flanges, elbows, and valve housings. (See Fig. 8)
5. Remove the four (4) duckbill valves. Replace all valves if any appear to be: swollen, out of shape, torn, scuffed,
slit or show any other sign of wear.
CAUTION: ORDER VALVES MADE OF EPDM (PART NUMBER: 348702) FORALLSEWAGEAPPLICATIONS.
ORDER VALVES MADE OF NITRILE (PART NUMBER: 342684) FOR OIL-CONTAMINATED WATER
APPLICATIONS.
Fig. 8
To Install:
1. Insert the two inlet valves pointing toward the pump
body. (See Fig. 8)
2. Insert the two (2) outlet valves pointing away from
the pump body. (See Fig. 8)

F. SPEED (GEAR) REDUCER REPLACEMENT
To Remove:
Fig. 9
1. Turn off electrical power to pump and remove pump cover (not
supplied on some models).
2. Remove the motor from the reducer. (See Section G)
3. Loosen output shaft set screws.
4. Remove the four (4) 3/8" bolts that secure the reducer to the pump
top using a 9/16" socket and ratchet.
5. Slide the reducer off the output shaft.
To Replace:
1. Grease the output shaft, keyway and key.
2. Loosen the output shaft set screws and slide the reducer onto
the output shaft.
3. Insert the four (4) 3/8" bolts and lock washers through the pump
and into the reducer. Tighten securely.
4. See step 2 (To Install) in “Eccentric Pin Inspection and Replacement” (page 5).
G. MOTOR REPLACEMENT
To Remove:
1. Turn off electrical power to pump.
2. Remove access plate from wiring junction box on motor.
3. Unhook wiring from motor leads.
4. Remove the four (4) motor mounting bolts securing the motor to the speed (gear) reducer.
5. Pull the motor away from the gear reducer. (See Fig. 10)
IMPORTANT: OVER TIME THE MOTOR SHAFT MAY SEIZE TO THE SPEED (GEAR) REDUCER SHAFT.
IF THIS HAPPENS REFER TO THE NEXT STEP.
6. The speed (gear) reducer motor mounting flange has two threaded holes for forcing the motor off. Use two of
the motor mounting bolts for this application. (See Fig. 10)
To Install:
1. Lubricate motor shaft with an anti-seize compound.
2. Insert key into keyway on motor shaft.
3. Carefully slide the motor into the speed (gear) reducer.
4. Install the four bolts and washers and tighten.
5. Wire motor leads to input wires by following instructions on data plate riveted to motor housing.
