1. Mark the liner mounting bolts for reassembly into
the same holes. Remove the bolts.

ner edge of the liner with a long drift punch
through the intake grate.
NOTE: Apply grease to the liner mounting bolt
threads before assembly.
3. Position the liner into the water intake housing.
Line up one of the liner bolts and lightly thread it
in. It may be necessary to tap or press the liner
into the water intake housing to locate the liner for
installation of the remaining bolts. Torque bolts to
120 lbs. in. (13.6 N·m).

the impeller (clockwise) on the shaft until the key-
way is directly above the flat on the shaft. This will
free the jammed key and allow removal.
