WARNING: Hot Water Hazard Whenever the bearing assembly is removed from the pump body, use a new gasket when re-installing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.

Place the new gasket in the recess of the pump body. Turn the gasket slightly in each direction to insure that it is sitting flush against the gasket surface without obstruction from debris. Several drops of oil or anti- freeze compound can be used on the back side of the gasket to hold it in place during reassembly.
