20, Wear Ring
Check wear ring for deep scratches, irregular sur-
face or any apparent damage.
If impeller / wear ring clearance is too large and
impeller is in good shape, renew wear ring.
22,23, Needle Bearing and Impeller
Shaft
Wear
Inspect needle bearings and their contact surface.
Check for scoring, pitting, chipping or other evi-
dence of wear.
With your finger nail, feel contact surface of seal.
If any irregular surface is found, renew impeller
shaft.
Install bearings then install impeller shaft and ro-
tate it. Make sure it turns smoothly.
Radial Play
Radial play is critical for jet pump unit life span.
Radial play of impeller shaft is checked with shaft
in housing, without impeller.
Retain housing in a soft jaw vise making sure not
to damage housing lug.
Set a dial gauge and position its tip onto shaft end,
close to end of threads.
Move shaft end up and down. Difference be-
tween highest and lowest dial gauge reading is
radial play.
Maximum permissible radial play is 0.05 mm (.002
in).
MEASURING IMPELLER SHAFT RADIAL PLAY
1. Dial gauge
2. Measure close to threads at shaft end
To check both bearings, proceed the same way
with other shaft end. Position gauge tip on diam-
eter, close to flats on shaft.
MEASURING IMPELLER SHAFT RADIAL PLAY
1. Dial gauge
2. Measure close to flats at shaft end
Excessive play can come either from worn bear-
ings or impeller shaft or damaged impeller hous-
ing bearing surfaces.
Measuring shaft diameter will determine the de-
fective parts.
Using a micrometer, measure diameter on bear-
ing contact surfaces. Minimum shaft diameter
should be 22.24 mm (.876 in).
1. Inspect for wear at the bearing pilot
2. Radial bearing raceway
NOTE : If shaft is to be replaced, it is rec-
ommended to replace both bearings at the
same time. In addition, it is suggested to replace
thrust bearing and thrust washer.
