GROUTER II OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: DO NOT RUN PUMP DRY.

CLEAN OUT TUB, LINES AND PUMP WHEN FINISHED.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE.

1. Prior to cranking the engine, turn the Hydraulic System

Control Lever off (pulled straight out from grouter
B tank). Turn the Pump and Paddle Speed Controls to 0
(fully clockwise). Attach tremie line hose to fitting
on Tremie Line Valve. Depending on the depth of
grouting, install hose and tremie pipe in the annulas
of the well.
2. Turn the Tremie Line Valve and Recirculating Valve off
(handle adjacent to valve).
3. Fill the tank with the desired amount of water.
4. Crank the engine using the push-button starter located
on the power pack.
5. Turn the Hydraulic System Control Lever on (pushed in
toward grouter tank).
6. Slowly adjust the Paddle Speed Control Valve for the
desired speed (counter clockwise for higher speed). If
the Paddle Speed Control Valve is turned too high
water or grout will be thrown from the tank.
7. Add cement or bentonite, one bag at a time, (grate must
be in place) to the water in the tank until the desired
thickness of slurry is obtained.
8. After the slurry is mixed, usually immediately after
the last bag is added, open the Tremie Line Valve
(handle in line with the valve) and adjust the Pump
Speed Control Valve to obtain the desired pump speed
(counter clockwise for higher speed).
If the pump becomes clogged or stops pumping, the
Reversing Valve can be used to reverse the pump and
pull any foreign matter back into the tank. To do
this, turn the Pump Speed Control Valve 1/3 open and
pull the Reversing Valve handle back away from the
valve (reverses pump rotation). Then push the handle
back toward the valve (forward/normal pump rotation).
This will normally dislodge any foreign matter in the
pump back to the tank and must be removed before normal
pumping resumes.

0
9. After all of the slurry is pumped, turn the Hydraulic
System Control Lever off (pulled straight out from
grouter tank), turn Pump and Paddle Speed Control
Valves off (clockwise), and turn the Tremie Line Valve
off (adjacent to valve). WARNING: DO NOT RUN PUMP
DRY.
10. If another batch is required, repeat above procedure.
11. When grouting is complete, add clean water to the tank.
Slowly start the paddles to help clean out the tank.
Start pump and open the Recirculation Valve to clean
out the pump and lines. Open the Tremie Line Valve and
close the Recirculation Valve to empty the water. The
supplied nozzle can be attached to the grouter tremie
line hose to help wash out the tank. Remove the 2-1/2"
clean out plug to make sure the suction fine for the
pump is clean and to remove any remaining water. This .
clean out procedure must be repeated until the grouter
tank, pump, and hoses are clean.
WARNING: MAKE CERTAIN THAT YOUR GROUTER II IS CLEAN.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PUMP, VALVES,
LINES, ETC.
FOR FREEZING CONDITIONS: After the previous clean up
procedure is completed, make certain that all water is
dr0.40_frclim the tank and the pump. Remove 2-1/2" clean
out plug. Remove the two 1/2" plugs from the center section
of the pump (on the bottom and side). Also open the Tremie
Line Valve and the Recirculation Valve (handle adjacent to
valve).

GROUTER II MAINTENANCE
Prior to running the GROUTER II each day, the following
should be completed:
1. Gasoline tank filled.
2. Check oil in engine (see engine maintenance section).
3. Check oil level in hydraulic tank (should be in middle
of the sight-glass when on level ground and not
running. If low, fill with Dexron II ATF).
4. Grease grouter pump (see pump maintenance section).
5. Grease paddle shaft bearing support (located inside
tank at top)
Every 100 hours change the spin on hydraulic filter.
Every two years change the Dexron II ATF hydraulic oil in
the tank (drain hole is in bottom of tank). Remove and
clean the tank strainer (located behind the 1-1/2" port on
the side of the hydraulic tank).
Replace packing in grouter pump as required.

1.1. INTRODUCTION
1-2. GENERAL
The Robbins & Myers Moyno® Pump is one of the most
versatile pumps available. It has been proven in thou-
sands of applications over the past 45 years. It is backed
by the experience gained over these years, both in ap-
plication and manufacturing know-how.
The Moyno® Pump is a progressing cavity pump. The
pumping action is created by a single helical rotor roll-
ing eccentrically in the double threaded helix of the
stator. In its revolution, the rotor forms in conjunction
with the stator a series of sealed cavities 180 degrees
apart. As the rotor turns, the cavities progress from the
suction to the discharge. As one cavity diminishes, the
opposing cavity is increasing at exactly the same rate.
Thus the sum of the two discharges is a constant volume.
The result is a pulsation-less positive displacement flow
with no valves.
1-3. NAMEPLATE DATA
The pump nameplate, located on the bearing housing,
carries the Serial Number, Frame Size, Type Designation,
and Trim Code. All are extremely important and must be
used when ordering spare parts.
Record the nameplate data of your pump In the spaces
provided at paragraph 4-33.
1-4. Frame Size. The pump frame designation is essen-
tially an indication of size. It consists of a number, a let-
ter, and a number (i.e. 2L6). The first number indicates
the number of stages in the pumping elements. The let-
ter indicates the model. The final number indicates the
size of the rotor-stator pumping elements. A frame 2L6
pump, therefore, has two stages of size-6 pumping
elements.
The "L" In the frame size indicates a standard relation-
ship between the housing, bearings, and drive shaft, and
the size of the pumping elements. Many variations may
be made by adapting smaller element sizes to a larger
drive end size. This may be necessary due to the severi-
ty of a specific pumping application. in cases where the
drive end (housing, bearings, and drive shaft) is one size
larger than the element size normally used, the pump is
referred to as an "M" frame pump (Le. 3M4). If the drive
end is two sizes larger than the element MU, the pump
• Moyno is a registered trademark of Robbins & Myers, Inc.

PROGRESSING
CAVITY PUMP

is referred to as a "P" frame. Thus, a frame 3L6, 3M4, and
3P3 would all use a common drive end.
1-5. Type Designation is a series of letters which iden-
tify the "Materials of Construction" in component groups
of parts. The usual type designation will consist of three
letters (i.e. CDQ).
The first letter identifies the material of the suction
housing casting or the body casting where the bearing
housing is a part of the suction housing.
The second letter indicates the material used in the
drive shaft, pins, connecting rod, rotor, and other minor
metallic parts in contact with the material being pumped.
The third letter determines the material of the stator.
It identifies only the stator material and not that of the
tube in which the stator is placed. The tube is either
carbon steel or stainless steel, depending on Type
Designation.
A typical type designation such as CDQ would result
in the following:
C = Cast Iron Suction Housing
D = Tool Steel Internals including drive shaft, pins,
connecting rod, rotor and other minor metallic
parts in contact with the material being
pumped.
0= Buna N Synthetic Rubber Stator (70 durometer)
The following letters identify some of the actual
materials that are used in standard construction:
B = EPDM Q = Buna N (70 durometer)
C = Cast Iron R = Natural Rubber (55 durometer)
D = Tool Steel S = Stainless Steel, type #316
F = Viton T = Teflon (glass impregnated)
G = Stainless Steel, type #416
1-6. Trim Code. Also included on the nameplate is the
three-character trim code designation. This only appears
on pumps which have semi-standard or special construc-
tion. The first letter identifies sealing variations, the sec-
ond character identifies internal variations, and the third
letter identifies rotor variations.
1.7. Variations of Standard Parts. Refer to paragraphs
4.34 thru 4.36 for variations available for modifying pumps
to meet specialized pumping conditions. If the trim code
of your pump is other than "AAA", contact your nearest
Moyno representative for clarification. Do not use any
variation unless you have determined that it is compati-
ble with your application.
2
21. INSTALLATION
2-2. GENERAL
Moyno® pumps are lubricated and tested at the fac-
tory prior to shipment and require minimum pre-start up
maintenance.
Accessibility to the pump and adequate clearance
should be a prime consideration in any installation.
Enough space should surround the unit so that mainte-
nance can be carried out with ease.
2-3. PIPING
2-4. Suction piping should be as short as possible. Nor-
mally, the suction line should be the same size as the
pump suction; however, conditions, such as high viscosi-
ty or required minimum flow velocities, may dictate other-
wise. Long-sweep 90 degree elbows or 45 degree elbows
should be used instead of the standard elbow. Suction
piping loops which trap air should be avoided.
2-5. Discharge piping diameter should generally be as
large as the pump ports unless fluids conditions indicate
otherwise.
An easily removable section of piping between 1-2
times longer than the stator should be mated to the dis-
charge port. This will allow the rotor and stator to be
removed without having to remove the complete pump
from the base.
2-6. FOUNDATION
For maximum pump-driver unit life, each unit should
be mounted on a strong, fabricated-steel base plate
which can be ordered from Robbins & Myers. The base
plates should be mounted on a concrete foundation built
on a solid base. The foundation should be approximate-
ly 4" to 8" longer and wider than the base for which it
is built. See figure 2-1. Anchor bolts for the base plate
should be located in the foundation.

Figure 2.1. Typical Foundation Example
Check the base plate surface with a carpenter% level
and place shims under the base plate at the places nec-
essary to make It level. Then check the pump and driver
shafts and the pump ports. Complete base mounted units
supplied by Robbins & Myers including pump and driver
are leveled with respect to the base at the factory. Shift-
ing may occur during shipment. The pump and driver
should be realigned. Care should be exercised to ensure
that all components are level and mounted in a direct line.
For maximum rigidity and lower noise levels the base
plate should be grouted to the foundation after the an-
chor bolts have been evenly tightened. A good grade of
non-shrink grout is recommended. The spaces between
the base plate and the foundation around the shims and
inside the bushings for the anchor bolts should also be
filled with grout. Allow the grout to dry according to man-
ufacturer's instructions, then fully tighten the anchor
bolts.
2.7. SHAFT ALIGNMENT
Although the base mounted units supplied by Robbins
& Myers are leveled with respect to the base before ship-
ping, most of the larger pump and driver units are
shipped with the flexible coupling disconnected.
After the base has been bolted down to the founda-
tion, check the following conditions:
2-8. On coupling connected units, be sure that the pump
and driver shafts are realigned before the coupling is con-
nected. Care should be exercised to ensure that all com-
ponents are level and mounted In a direct line.
Check gap between coupling halves (refer to coupling
manufacturers recommendations). Adjustment can
usually be accomplished by loosening the mounting
bolts on either the pump or driver and moving the loosen-
ed component into alignment with the fixed component.
Do not use a hammer! On couplings with equal diameter
hubs, it may be helpful to lay a straight edge axially
across the coupling halves to check alignment.
2.9. On belt drive units, check to ensure that sheaves or
sprockets are in alignment. Check belts for proper ten-
sion. Tension requirements will vary with type of belt,
center distances, and belt speeds. Consult belt manufac-
turer for specific recommendation.
2-10. WATER FLUSH OF PACKING
The packing may be either grease lubricated through
a grease fitting in the stuffing box or have plumbing con-
nected to the housing to allow a water flush.
When the material being pumped is abrasive in nature,
it may be advantageous to flush the packing to prevent
leakage under packing and excessive shaft wear.
Clean water can be injected through a 118" NPT
tapped hole that normally houses the grease fitting for
lubricating the packing. The water can be permitted to
leak axially along the shaft in either direction or can be
removed from the second tapped hole in the stuffing box.
In both cases, the discharge from the stuffing box should
be throttled slightly to maintain 10-15 PSI higher pressure
in the stuffing box than is present in the suction houS-
Ing. See figure 2-2.

• 1. Upon initial start up of the pump, be sure that the
Figure 2.2. Typical Water Flush to Packing includes
a ad-
(1) Throttling Valve, (2) Pressure Gauge, and (3) Press
ure
Regulating Valve. This is a basic arrangement; other varia-
tions can be used.
31. OPERATION
3.2. INITIAL CHECK
Before putting the pump into operation, the following
items should be checked to ensure that each piece
of
equipment is installed correctly:
— Pump, driver, coupling or sheave alignment.
— Electrical connections.
— Gauges and other instruments.
— Water flush connection to the stuffing box.
— Pump rotation. Normal rotation is indicated on
the pump drive end.
— Belt tension on belt driven units. There should be
no appreciable deflection when first starting up.
— All valves should be open on both suction and
discharge sides of pump.
CAUTION: This Is a positive displacement pump. Do
not
operate It against a closed valve.
3-3. START-UP
CAUTION: DRY OPERATION IS HARMFUL TO
THE
PUMP! Never allow the pump to operate with-
out liquid, as dry operation will cause
premature wear of the stator and possible
damage. The stator Is lubricated by the liquid
which Is pumped.
1. Before operating the pump for the first time, fill
with liquid (the pipe plug tap on the suction housing it
may
be used for filling). If the liquid to be pumped is highly
viscous, dilute it before filling the pump. The liquid
fill-
up will lubricate the stator for the initial start-up.
Note: If the pump is shut down temporarily, enoug
h liq-
uid will remain in the system to provide lubric
a-
tion upon restarting. It is advisable to maintain
the
suction piping at a higher elevation than the
3
centerline of the pump in order to contain some
liquid in the pump at time of shutdown.
2. Once the pump has been filled with liquid, check
for direction of pump rotation by momentarily startin
g
and stopping the drive. See pump drive end for correc
t
rotation.
3. In suction lift applications, when water flush is not
utilized, replace the zerk fitting at the stuffing box (in
suc-
tion housing) with a pipe plug. This will prevent loss
of
prime due to air leakage.
4. If applicable, turn on the seal water to packing.
5. Start pump.
3.4. PACKING LEAKAGE
The packed stuffing box is designed to control leakag
e,
not to stop it completely. Leakage is necessary to reduc
e
friction and to dissipate heat.
packing gland nuts are only finger-tight and evenly
justed. See figure 3-1.
2. Adjust the gland nuts for a leakage rate of 50.100
drops per minute until the packing has seated and
ad-
justed to the operating temperature (approximately 10-15
minutes).
3. If excessive leakage is present after 15 minutes of
operation, tighten the gland nuts 1/6 of a turn.
4. Tighten the gland nuts 116 of a turn after an addi-
tional 15 minutes if necessary, and repeat until desire
d
leakage of 1-2 drops per minute is obtained.
CAUTION: Do not tighten until zero leakage is obtain
ed.
Over-tightening of the packing gland may
result in accelerated wear on the packing and
damage to the shaft.
5. When new packing is placed in the stuffing box,
often all but one ring will fit, until pump operation com-
pacts them. In such cases, a single packing ring Is
in-
cluded in a small bag attached to the packing gland
nut.
After the pump has run, and the packing has compressed
the final packing ring can be added. ,

4-1. MAINTENANCE
4.2. GENERAL
The Moyno pump has been designed for a minimum
of maintenance, the extent of which is routine lubrica-
tion and adjustment of packing, and infrequent lubrica-
tion of the bearings. The pump is one of the easiest to
work on in that the main elements are very accessible
and require few tools to disassemble.
4.3. PACKING LUBRICATION
The zerk fitting on the side of the suction housing
leads to the lantern ring halves in the mid-section of the
packings. At least once a week, inject a small quantity
of good quality grease, such as Mobil Temp Grease (Mobil
Chemical Co.), or equivalent, into the zerk fitting to lubri-
cate the packings.
4-4. PACKING ADJUSTMENT
Packing gland attaching nuts should be evenly ad-
justed so they are little more than finger tight. Over-
tightening of the packing gland may result in premature
packing failure and possible damage to the shaft and
gland.
When the packing is new, frequent minor adjustments
are recommended for the first few hours of operation in
order to compress and seat the packing.
When leakage can no longer be regulated by tighten-
ing the gland nuts, remove and replace the packings In
accordance with the DISASSEMBLY and REASSEMBLY
Instructions. The entire pump need not be disassembled
to replace the packings. Briefly, replace as follows:
1. Remove gland nuts, and slide gland along drive
shaft.
2. Use a packing puller tool to remove four packing
rings, lantern ring halves, and four additional packing
rings.
3. Inspect surface of drive shaft for excessive wear or
grooves due to packing rub. If shaft is worn, disassem-
ble pump drive to replace drive shaft.
4. If drive shaft Is not worn, Install four packing rings,
the lantern ring halves, and four more packing rings. Be
sure to stagger the packing ring Joints at 90° increments.
5. When installing the new packing, it may be found
that all but one ring will go on the drive shaft. When the
pump has run for a short time and the new packing Is
compressed, this final ring can be installed.
CAUTION: Always use a proper packing tamper tool to
Install packings. Do not use a pointed or
sharp tool, as damage to the packing materiel
or drive shaft could result. To assure proper
shaft lubrication, never use a one-piece spiral
wrap packing.
4-5. BEARING LUBRICATION
The bearings are lubricated at the factory and do not
need additional lubrication for at least 15,000 hours of
normal operation.
1. Remove the drive shaft and bearing assembly in ac-
cordance with the DISASSEMBLY instructions.
2. Clean bearings and shaft assembly to remove all
old grease.
3. Use a good grade of EP (Extreme Pressure) Lithium
soap-base grease such as Mobilux EP2 Grease (Mobil
Chemical Co.), or equivalent, to lubricate bearings.
4. Reassemble in accordance with the REASSEMBLY
instructions.
Note: It is normal for bearings to run warm to the touch
for the first few hours of operation.
4-6. DISASSEMBLY
4-7. Disconnect Pump.
1. Disconnect the power source.
2. Close the suction and discharge valves to isolate
the pump from the line.
3. Turn off flush water to packing if used.
4. Remove drain plug in bottom of suction housing to
drain away any fluid remaining in pump.
5. Place a support block under suction housing in area
of drain plug. Wooden blocks are sufficient. The purpose
is to prevent undue stress on pump support when pump
is disassembled.
6. Disconnect piping from stator end of pump.
4-8. Stator Removal.
1. With pipe wrench or strap wrench, remove discharge
reducer (31).
2. Remove cap of stator support (30).
Note: On most "M" and "P" frame pumps, a two-piece
bushing (28) will be installed around stator (27) at
support (30). On the 3P3 frame pump, a second
two-piece bushing (29) is used.
3. With strap wrench or pipe wrench, unscrew stator
(27) from suction housing. Pull stator off the rotor.
4-9. Rotor Removal. iA
1. At shaft collar(12), remove two retaining screws (10).
2. Use a small punch or drift pin to drive pin (13) from
shaft (8).
0\

3. Slide shaft collar (12) toward packing gland (14)
and
remove a washer (11) from each side of shaft (8).
0 4. Pull rotor and connecting rod unit (22 thru 26) from
pump.
4-10. Rotor Disassembly.
1. Use a vise to clamp the mid-section of connecting
rod (23).
2. Use a drift pin to carefully drive pin retainer (24) from
end of rotor (26).
3. Remove rotor pin (25), and separate connecting rod
(23) from rotor (26).
4. If present, remove washers (22).
5. On most "M" and "P" frame pumps, a detachable
rotor head (33) is present. Drive off the second pin retaine
r
(24) to remove head pin (32).
6. On 9P3 frame pumps, remove 0-ring (34).
4-11. Packing Removal.
1. Remove two nuts (D) and packing gland (14).
2. If packing is to be removed without further disas-
sembly of pump, use a packing puller tool to remove pack-
ing (15).
3. Carefully work out lantern ring halves (16).
Note: If pump is to be disassembled, remove packin
gs
AFTER removal of the suction from the bearing
housing assembly. Refer to paragraph 4-12, step 5.
4-12. Drive Shaft and Bearing Removal.
1. Remove stator and rotor per paragraphs 4-8 and
4-9.
2. Remove two nuts (D) and packing gland (14).
3. Remove four screws and lock washers (A). Pull cover
plate (2) from drive shaft.
4. Insert a bar or rod into the hollow end of drive shaft
(8), and tap the rod to fbrce the shaft unit (3 thru 8) out
of the pump.
5. If the packing was not previously removed, use a
small rod through stator port of suction housing (20)
to
tap on packing washer (17). Carefully drive packings (15),
lantern ring halves (16), and packing washer (17) out
of
suction housing (20).
6. To disassemble drive shaft and bearing unit, remove
nut (3) and washer (4). Use an arbor press on inner race
of radial bearing (7) to press radial bearing (7), spacer (6),
and thrust bearing (5) from shaft.
Note: If replacing drive shaft or bearings, it is recom
- be evaluated by a Robbins & Myers' sales or factor
mended that both grease seals (1 and 9) also be
replaced.
7. Drive seal (1) out of plate (2). Drive seal (9) out of
bearing housing (19).

4-13. CLEANING
Clean all parts in a suitable cleaning solvent. Be sure
to clean stuffing box cavity in suction housing (20).
4-14. INSPECTION
4.15. Bearings. After cleaning, rotate bearings very slowly
under hand pressure to feel for smooth and even action
.
Never spin a dry bearing. Check for cracks, galling, pit-
ting, burrs, etc. Replace bearing if there is any doubt con-
cerning complete serviceability.
4-16. Drive Shaft. Inspect drive shaft for scoring, burrs,
cracks, damaged threads, etc. Replace as necessary.
4-17. Seals. It is sound practice to always replace seals
whenever bearings and drive shaft are removed.
4-18. Packing. It is sound practice to always replace pack-
ing whenever the pump drive end is disassembled. How-
ever, examine old packings as an indication of operating
conditions.
4-19. Rotor.
1. To check for excessive rotor wear, measure the rotor
crest-to-crest diameter and compare with the following
chart:
Standard
Frame Size Crest-to-Crest Dia. (in.)
L6 2.281 ± 0.003
M4
1.888 ± 0.003
P3 1.415 ± 0.003
2. If the measured crest-to-crest diameter is within
0.010" of the standard value, the rotor is re-usable.
3. Rotors with crest-to-crest diameters of 0.011 to 0.050
Inch under the standard value should be replaced. These
rotors can be renewed by chrome plating to standard
dimensions provided that:
a. the rotor pin holes are not excessively worn.
b. the rotor surface is not cracked, pitted or deeply
grooved (1/32" or more).
c. the base metal surface is not pitted or corroded.
4. Rotors may be sent to Robbins & Myers or any other
competent plating shop. Surface should be buffed,
re-
plated to standard dimensions, then polished.
4-20. Stator. A stator is worn and in need of replace.m
ent
if its surface is pitted and gouged. However, even
a
smooth surface may be worn. Performance is the best
measure of rotor to stator fit. Suspected stator wear can

4.22. ASSEMBLY
4.23. Grease Seals.
1. Use an arbor press to install grease seal (1) in cover
plate (2). Be sure lip of seal is directed toward interior
of cover plate (pump interior).
2. Use an arbor press to install grease seal (9) in bear-
ing housing (19) so that lip of seal is directed toward
bearing cavity.
3. Apply a few drops of oil to ID of seals just before
further assembly.
4.24. Drive Shaft, Bearings, and Packing.
1. Use an arbor press to install radial bearing (7),
spacer (6), and thrust bearing (5) on drive shaft (8). Press
only on inner race of bearings. Be sure radial bearing (7)
is seated on shaft shoulder.
2. Install lock washer (4) and nut (3), and tighten nut
securely. Bend one tab of lock washer against flat of nut.
3. Lubricate bearings per paragraph 4-5.
4. Carefully and slowly insert hollow end of drive shaft
(8) through seal (9) in bearing housing (19). As the shaft
emerges from the seal, slip the following parts, in order,
over the shaft:
ti a. Shaft collar (12).
b. Packing gland (14).
b Note: If the packing set consists of hard foil rings and
soft asbestos plastic rings, install the rings alter-
nately; first a hard, then a soft, etc.
c. Four or three packing rings (15) with their joints
staggered 90° on. adjacent rings.
Note: When installing new packing, it may be found that
all but one ring will go on the drive shaft. When
the pump has run for a short time and the new
packing is compressed, this final ring can be in-
stalled. Remember, for proper lubrication, FOUR
rings must ALWAYS be installed between washer
(17) and lantern ring halves (16).
d. Two lantern ring halves (16) with their flat faces
against the packing.
e. Four packing rings (15) with joints staggered 90°.
f. Packing washer (17) with its flat face against
packing.
5. Push drive shaft through suction housing (20).
Carefully install cover plate assembly (1,2), and attach
with four screws and lock washers (A). Tighten screws
evenly and alternately.
6. Push packing (15) and packing gland (14) into stuff-
ing box of suction housing (20). Attach gland to studs (F)
with two nuts (D) finger tight. Final gland adjustment
should be done during the next start up.
4.25. Rotor.
1. Slip connecting rod (23) and one washer (22) (if
used) into rotor (26). Align pin holes, and install pin (25).
Press retainer (24) over end of rotor (26) to secure pin (25).
2. On "M" and "P" frame pumps, attach rotor to rotor
head (33) with pin (32). Secure pin (32) with retainer (24).
Note: On 9P3 frame pumps, install 0-ring (34).
3. Insert connecting rod (23) with washer (22) (if used)
into hollow drive shaft (8). Align hole in end of rod (23)
with hole in shaft (8) and hole in collar (12).
4. Insert shaft pin (13) through collar, shaft, and rod.
Retain with a washer (11) and retaining screw (10) on each
end of shaft pin (13).
Note: Be sure that the hollow end of retaining screw (10)
fits over end of shaft pin (13) to ensure a tight fit.
Retaining screws must seat on washers (11) and
not on pin (13).
4.26. Stator.
1. If the stator (27) has a stainless steel tube, apply
- TeflonTm tape or a similar sealing material to its threads,
If the stator has a carbon steel sleeve, apply pipe dope
to its threads.
2. Just before installation of stator, lubricate the rotor
with water or glycerine to allow stator to slip on easier.
Note: Be sure to use a lubricant that is compatible with
the stator material. Grease or oil is not compati-
ble with type R or B stators.
3. Slip stator over rotor, and screw into the suction
housing. Tighten with a pipe wrench as close to the suc-
tion housing as possible.
4. Secure stator in stator support(s) (30) with support
cap and screws (C).
Note: For frames 3M4, 3P3, and 6P3, install bushing (28)
at each support (30). For frame 3P3, install an ex-
tra smaller bushing (29) under the bushing (28).
4-27. Pump Connections.
1. Connect piping to stator end of pump.
2. Check complete pump installation per INSTALLA-
TION instructions.
3. Perform INITIAL CHECK and START-UP operations
per paragraphs 3-2 and 3-3.
4-28. STORAGE
4-29. Short Term Storage. Storage of 6 months or less will
not damage the pump. Howevar, to ensure the best possi-
ble protection, the following is advised:
1. Store pump inside whenever possible or cover with
some type of protective covering. Do not allow moisture
to collect around pump.
2. Remove drain plug to allow the suction housing to
drain and dry completely.
3. Loosen the packing gland and inject a liberal
amount of grease into the stuffing box. Tighten the gland
nut only hand tight. When water flush systems are to be
used, do not use grease. A small amount of light oil is
recommended.
4. See manufacturer's instructions for motor and/or
drive storage.
 5. Every 2 or 3 weeks, rotate the pump manually a few 4-34. VARIATIONS OF STANDARD PARTS

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
AL WARNING: Explosive Fuel!
Gasoline Is extremely flammable and Its vapors
can explode If Ignited. Store gasoline only In
approved containers, In well-ventilated,
unoccupied buildings, away from sparks or
flames. Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine
Is hot or running, since spilled fuel could Ignite if
It comes In contact with hot parts or sparks from
Ignition. Do not start the engine near spilled
fuel. Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
General Recommendations
Purchase gasoline in small quantities and store in
clean, approved containers. A container with a
capacity of 2 gallons or less with a pouring spout
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Also read the operating instructions of the equipment this engine powers.
PRE-START CHECKLIST
O Check oil level. Add oil if tow.
❑ Check fuel level. Add fuel if low.
O Check cooling air intake areas and external
surfaces of engine. Make sure they are clean
and unobstructed.
O Check that the air cleaner components and all
shrouds, equipment covers, and guards are in
place and securely fastened.
is recommended. Such a container is easier to
handle and helps eliminate spillage during
refueling.
Do not use gasoline left over from the previous
season, to minimize gum deposits in your fuel
system and to insure easy starting.
Do not add oil to the gasoline.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for the
fuel to expand.
Fuel Type
For best results use only clean, fresh, unleaded
gasoline with a pump sticker octane rating of 87 or
higher. In countries using the Research method, it
should be 90 octane minimum.
Unleaded gasoline is recommended as it leaves
less combustion chamber deposits. Leaded
gasoline may be used in areas where unleaded is
not available and exhaust emissions are not
regulated. Be aware however, that the cylinder
head will require more frequent service.
Gasoline/Alcohol blends
Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol, 90% unleaded
gasoline by volume) is approved as a fuel for
Kohler engines. Other gasoline/alcohol blends are
not approved.
Gasoline/Ether blends
Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) and unleaded
gasoline blends (up to a maximum of 15% MTBE
by volume) are approved as a fuel for Kohler
engines. Other gasoline/ether blends are not
approved.
❑ Check that any clutches or transmissions are
disengaged or placed in neutral. This is
especially important on equipment with
hydrostatic drive. The shift lever must be
exactly in neutral to prevent resistance which
could keep the engine from starting.

AN WARNING: Lethal Exhaust Gases!
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide Is odorless,
colorless, and can cause death If inhaled. Avoid
Inhaling exhaust fumes, and never run the engine
In a closed building or confined area.
STARTING
1. For A Cold Engine - Place the throttle control
midway between the "slow" and "fast"
positions. Place the choke control into the
"on" position.
For A Warm Engine (normal operating
temperatures) - Place the throttle/choke
control midway between the "slow" and "fast"
positions. Place the choke control into the

these guidelines can burn out the
starter motor.
NOTE: Upon start up a metallic ticking may
occur. This is caused by the hydraulic
Mar leak down during storage. Run
the engine for 5 minutes. The noise
will normally cease in the first minute.
if noise continues, run the engine at
mid throttle for 20 minutes. if noise
persists, take the engine to your local
Kohler Service outlet.
NOTE: if the engine develops sufficient speed
to disengage the starter but does not
keep running (a false start), the engine
rotation must be allowed to come to a
complete stop before attempting to
restart the engine. If the starter is
engaged while the flywheel is rotating,
the starter pinion and flywheel ring
gear may clash, resulting in damage to
the starter.
 3. For A Cold Engine - Gradually return the
choke control to the "off" position after the
engine starts and warms up.

Sentry"' oil pressure switch. If the oil pressure
decreases below an acceptable level, the Oil
Sentry" will either shut off the engine or activate
a warning signal, depending on the application.
NOTE: Make sure the oil level is checked BEFORE
EACH USE and is maintained up to the "F"
mark on the dipstick. This includes engines
equipped with Oil Sentry'''.
CHANGE OIL AND OIL FILTER
Change Oil
For a new engine, change oil after the first 5
hours of operation. Thereafter, change oil after
every 100 hours of operation.
For an overhauled engine or those rebuilt with a
new short block, use 10W-30 weight service
class SF or SG oil for the first 5 hours of
operation. Change the oil after this initial run-in
period. Refill with service class SF or SG oil as
specified in the "Viscosity Grades" table on
page 4.
Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The
oil will flow freely and carry away more impurities.
Make sure the engine is level when filling,
checking. and changing the oil.
Change the oil as follows (see Figure 7):
1. Remove the oil drain plug and oil fill
cap/dipstick. Be sure to allow ample time for
complete drainage.
2. Reinstall the drain plug. Make sure It is
tightened to 13.6 N•m (10 ft. lb.) torque.
3. Fill the crankcase, with new oil of the proper
type, to the "F" mark on the dipstick. Refer to
"Oil Type" on page 4. Always check the level
with the dipstick before adding more oil.
4. Reinstall the oil fill cap or plug and tighten

STORAGE
If the engine will be out of service for two months
or more, use the following storage procedure:
1. Clean the exterior surfaces of the engine.
2. Change the oil and filter while the engine is
still warm from operation. See "Change Oil
And Oil Filter" on page 9.
PARTS ORDERING
The engine Specification, Model, and Serial
numbers are required when ordering replacement
parts from your Kohler Engine Service Dealer.
These numbers are found on the identification
plate which is affixed to the engine shrouding.
Include letter suffixes if there are any. See
"Engine Identification Numbers" on page 4.

3. The fuel system must be completely emptied,
or the gasoline must be treated with a
stabilizer to prevent deterioration. If you
choose to use a stabilizer, follow the
manufacturers recommendations, and add the
correct amount for the capacity of the fuel
system. Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh
gasoline. Run the engine for 2-3 minutes to
get stabilized fuel into the carburetor.
To empty the system, drain the fuel tank and
carburetor, or run the engine until the fuel
tank and system are empty.
4. Remove the spark plug. Add one tablespoon
of engine oil into the spark plug hole. Install
the plug, but do not connect the plug lead.
Crank the engine two or three revolutions.
Always Insist on genuine Kohler parts. All genuine
Kohler parts meet strict standards for fit, reliability,
and performance.
