Chapter 5 — Pump End
Removing the Pump Stator
1. Remove the retaining clips from the bottom of the level sensor.
2. Lay the pump core on its side. Support the motor head on a 4x4 wooden block.
3. On W-Series, Gatorgrinder and Upgrade pumps, remove the wire stand from the
pump. There is a hole in the suction housing where a 1/8-inch punch can be used in
to aid the removal of the wire stand.
4. Use a 5/16” nut driver to remove the four inlet shroud retaining screws and pull the
inlet shroud off of the shredder ring.
5. Remove the shredder ring by gripping it with a pair of vice grips. Strike the vice grips
with a hammer while pulling straight out from the pump. Replace the shredder ring if
it is cracked, broken or worn.
