Installation Notes
Ensure power is disconnected and the circuit is locked out before removal of the old motor. Remove the pump housing and original motor, verify mount dimensions, shaft configuration and wiring setup. Secure the new B2984 motor to the pump housing, align and connect the shaft, rewire per voltage label, and restore power. Run the pump to verify normal current draw, smooth operation and correct flow.
Maintenance Tip
During each service interval inspect the motor bearings, check for vibration or unusual noise, ensure the motor mount remains tight and the pump is primed and operating efficiently. Replace the motor if current draw rises, flow diminishes or bearing noise increases to protect downstream equipment and maintain consistent performance.
