Removing the Impeller from the Wash Motor
The impeller is attached to the wash motor and can
be removed once the wash motor is removed from
the pump base.
1. Place the end of a flat-bladed screwdriver
into the back of the wash motor to hold the
armature of the motor from turing while un-
screwing the impeller clockwise. (Fig. 3-28)
Take care not to scratch or nick the motor
windings.
To Remove the Volute
1. Align the arrow on the volute and the
locator triangle on the wash motor
frame as in Figure 3-29.
2. Lift the volute from the wash motor.
