INTRODUCTION

Thank You for purchasing a Gorman-Rupp 10

Series Pump. Read this manual carefully to learn

howtosafelymaintainandserviceyourpump.Fail-

ure to do so could result in personal injury or dam-

age to the pump.

A set of three manuals accompanies your pump.

TheInstallation/OperationManualcontainsessen-

tial information on installing and operating the

pump. The Parts List Manual provides a perform-

ance curve, a pump model cross-section drawing,

and parts list for your pump.

This Maintenance and Repair Manual provides

troubleshooting and maintenance instructions re-

quiredto properlydiagnose operationalproblems,

and to service the pump components.

As described on the following page, this manual

willalert personnel toknown procedures which re-

quire specialattention, to those which could dam-

age equipment, and to those which could be dan-

gerous topersonnel. However,this manualcannot

possibly anticipate and provide detailed precau-

tions for every situation that might occur during

maintenance of the pump. Therefore, it is the re-

sponsibility of the owner/maintenance personnel

to ensure that only safe, established maintenance

proceduresare used, and that any procedures not

addressed in this manualare performed only after

establishing that neither personalsafety nor pump

integrity are compromised by such practices.

Pumps and related equipment must be installed

andoperatedaccordingtoallnational,localandin-

dustry standards.

If there are any questions regarding the pump

which are not covered in this manual orin other lit-

erature accompanying the unit, please contact

SAFETY - SECTION A

This information applies to 10 Series

electric motor or engine driven pumps.

Refer to the manual accompanying the

power source before attempting to be-

gin operation.

This manual will alert personnel to

known procedures which require spe-

cial attention, to those which could

damage equipment, and to those which

could be dangerous to personnel.How-

ever,thismanualcannotpossiblyantici-

pate and provide detailed instructions

and precautions for every situation that

might occur during maintenance of the

unit.Therefore,it isthe responsibilityof

the owner/maintenance personnel to

ensurethatonlysafe, established main-

tenance procedures are used, and that

any procedures not addressed in this

manual are performed only after estab-

lishing that neither personal safety nor

pump integrity are compromised by

such practices.

Thismanualcontainsessentialinforma-

tion on troubleshooting and maintain-

ing the pump.In additionto thismanual,

see the separate literature covering

installation and operation, pump parts,

and any optional equipment shipped

with the pump.

Beforeattemptingtoopenorservicethe

pump:

1. Familiarize yourself with this man-

ual.

2. Disconnect or shut down the pow-

er source and take the necessary

precautions to ensure that the

pump will remain inoperative.

3. Allow the pump to completely cool

if overheated.

4. Check the temperature before

opening any covers, plates, or

plugs.

5. Close the suction and discharge

valves.

6. Vent the pump slowly and cau-

tiously.

7. Drain the pump.

Do not attempt to pump any liquids the

pump has not been designed for, and

which may damage the pump or endan-

ger personnel as a result of pump fail-

ure. Consult the factory to determine

compatibilitybetweenthepumpandliq-

uid.

Use lifting and moving equipment in

good repair and with adequate capacity

to prevent injuries to personnel or dam-

age to equipment. Suction and dis-

charge hoses and piping must be re-

moved from the pump before lifting.

After the pump has been positioned,

make certain that the pump and all pip-

ing or hose connections are tight,prop-

erly supported and secure before oper-

ation.

Do not operate the pump against a

closeddischarge valveforlongperiods

deteriorate, and the liquid could come

to a boil, build pressure, and cause the

pump casing to rupture or explode.

Do not remove plates, covers, gauges,

pipe plugs, or fittings from an over-

heatedpump. Vaporpressure within the

pump can cause parts being disen-

gaged to be ejected with great force.Al-

low the pump to cool before servicing.

Thesepumpsmaybeusedtohandle

productswhichifoverheatedcouldpro-

duce dangerous fumes. Use extreme

caution when venting the pump, or

whenremovingcovers,plates,plugs,or

fittings.

Neverrunthispumpbackwards.Becer-

tain that rotation is correct before fully

engaging the pump.

If the pump is used to pump materials

which could cause serious illness or in-

jury through direct exposure or emitted

fumes, wear protective clothing, such

asrubbergloves,facemask,andrubber

apron, as necessary before disassem-

bling the pump or piping.

Do not operate the pump without

shields and/or guards in place over the

drive shafts, belts, and/or couplings, or

other rotating parts. Exposed rotating

parts can catch clothing, fingers, or

tools, causing severe injury to person-

nel.

If the pump is powered by an electric

motor, do not operate a non-explosion

proof motor in an explosive atmo-

sphere. An explosion, which may cause

severe personal injury or death, could

result. Install, connect and operate the

motor in accordance with the National

Electric Code and all local codes. If

there is a conflict between the instruc-

tions in the manual accompanying the

unit and the National Electric Code or

applicable local code, the National or

Local code shall take precedence. All

electrical equipment supplied with the

pump conforms to applicable federal

regulations and national codes in effect

on the date of manufacture.

If the pump is electric motor driven, the

electrical power used to operate this

pump is high enough to cause injury or

death. Obtain the servicesof a qualified

electrician to troubleshoot, test and/or

service the electrical components of

this pump.

If the pump is powered by an internal

combustion engine, do not operate in

anexplosiveatmosphere.Whenoperat-

ing internal combustion engines in an

enclosed area, make certain that ex-

haust fumes are piped to the outside.

These fumescontain carbon monoxide,

a deadly gas that is colorless, tasteless,

and odorless.

Fuel used by internal combustion en-

gines presents an extreme explosion

and fire hazard. Make certain that all

fuel lines are securely connected and

free of leaks. Never refuel a hot or run-

ning engine. Avoid overfilling the fuel

tank.Alwaysusethecorrecttypeoffuel.

Never tamper with the engine governor

to gain more power. The governor esta-

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Sincepumpapplicationsareseldomidentical,and

pump wear is directly affected by such things as

the abrasive qualities, pressure and temperature

oftheliquidbeingpumped, thissectionisintended

only to provide general recommendations and

practices for preventive maintenance. Regardless

of the application however, following a routine pre-

ventive maintenance schedule will help assure

trouble-free performance and long life from your

Gorman-Rupp pump. For specific questions con-

cerning your application, contact your Gorman-

Rupp distributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company.

Record keeping is an essential component of a

good preventive maintenance program. Changes

in suction and discharge gauge readings (if so

equipped) between regularly scheduled inspec-

tions can indicate problems that can be corrected

before system damage or catastrophic failure oc-

curs.Theappearanceofwearingpartsshouldalso

as well. Also, if records indicate that a certain part

(such as the seal) fails at approximately the same

duty cycle, the part can be checked and replaced

beforefailureoccurs, reducingunscheduleddown

For new applications, a first inspection of wearing
