Standard ST reducers are designed with a hollow output shaft secured to the mixer shaft by a tapered
bushing and keeper plate at the input-end. A lower L.S. bearing and adapter, fitted to the mixer shaft at
the output end, is part of the reducer installation kit and must be mounted to the mixer shaft before the
reducer is positioned.
Optional Stub Shaft
As an option to the hollow shaft connection, ST units may be connected to the mixer shaft by a standard
coupling. Coupling connection requires installation of a stub shaft in the hollow shaft bore of the reducer.
The stub shaft will normally be installed at the factory.
Standard units are powered by NEMA C-Face motors mounted to an adapter, which are bolted to a plate
on the upper housing (see Figure 2).
NOTE: Maximum input (motor) speed is 1750 rpm.

The depth given for the tapped hole is a minimum, and the keyway must be open ended.
3.. Refer to Figure 6. Protect the seal in the seal cage from the sharp edges of the keyway by
taping over the keyway with common transparent tape and applying a light coat of oil to the
shaft.
4. Slide the seal cage onto the shaft.
5. Install the O-Ring in the groove in the seal cage.
6. Loosely assemble the bearing, tapered bearing adapter, bearing lockwasher and bearing
locknut, and slide the assembly onto the shaft with the nut toward the seal cage.

Unit Size Distance From Shaft End--lnches
10 9.63 ± 1/16
11 10.83 ± 1/16
12 12.83 ± 1/16
7. Position the bearing on the shaft as required by Table 5, above and tighten the nut as follows: To
tighten the bearing nut on the adapter, two procedures are available; The first procedure is most
accurate and should be used whenever practical:
a. Proper tightening of the adapter is measured as a reduction in internal clearance in the
bearing. The more the nut is tightened, the less internal clearance will exist in the bearing.
Measure the internal clearance of the bearing prior to installation by using feeler gages
between the bearing rollers and the outer race (Figure 7). The bearing outer race must be
centered and the shims must pass over both sets of rollers to properly measure the internal
clearance. Once the bearing is on the shaft and in the proper position, the adapter may be
tightened until the internal clearance is reduced by .0010" to .0015".
Figure 7: Internal Clearance Using Feeler Gages
b. The proper tightening of the adapter may also be measured by assuming that a specific
amount of axial movement of the adapter relative to the bearing inner race will provide a
specific amount of reduction of internal clearance and hence a certain fit on the shaft. The
ratio of axial movement to radial clearance reduction is approximately 15:1. Once the bearing
is on the shaft and in the proper position, the adapter may be tightened just until the adapter
begins to tighten on the shaft and becomes difficult to slide axially on the shaft. This is considered
PAGE 11 of 47
HAYWARD GORDON LTD.
the starting point. Continue to tighten the nut until the bearing moves 0.020" to 0.025". The minimum
bearing internal clearance after mounting is 0.0012" to 0.0014".

Installing Mixer Shaft in Reducer
1. Refer to Figure 10. Support the mixer shaft to allow working room beneath the seal cage or tank-
flange adapter.
2. Lift the reducer as described in "Lifting & Moving" on page 8and position the unit above the mixer
shaft. Do not install the key at this time.
3. Slide the reducer down over the mixer shaft and seat the outer face of the bearing mounted on
the mixer shaft in the bore in the reducer housing. Tap the bearing face softly to make certain it is
not cocked in the bore.
NOTE: Do not force the mixer shaft into the reducer; it should slide in smoothly.
4. Refer to Figure 10. Thread the keeper plate all the way into the hollow shaft. Insert a threaded
rod (See Table 4 for size) through the plate and into the mixer shaft. Tighten a nut on the
threaded rod to draw the mixer shaft into the unit until it contacts the keeper plate. When the
mixer shaft is in place (support it in this position), remove the threaded rod and keeper plate.
5. Refer to Figure 11. Rotate the mixer shaft to line up the keyways. Insert the key in the keyway
from the top and tap it into place against the internal retaining ring in the hollow shaft.

LUBRICANT CHANGES
Petroleum Lubricants
For normal operating conditions, change lubricant every six months or 2500 hours, whichever occurs first. See
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE for first oil change. If the unit is operated in an area where temperatures vary
with the season, change the oil viscosity to suit the temperature, refer to Table 11. Lubricant suppliers can test oil
from the unit periodically and recommend economical lubricant change schedules.
Synthetic Lubricants
Synthetic lube change intervals can be extended to 8000 - 10,000 hours based on operating temperatures and
lubricant contamination. Laboratory analysis is recommended for optimum lubricant life and gear drive performance.
Change lube with change in ambient temperature, if required. Refer to Table 14.
Bearing & Seal Greases
Some units have one or more grease lubricated bearings and grease purged seals. Whenever changing oil in the
unit, grease the bearings and purge the seals with one of the NLGI #2 greases listed in Table 15.

Figure 17: Grease Fitting Locations

Grease-Lubricated Bearings & Seals
All ST units are equipped with four grease fittings: One at the C-Face Motor adapter plate, one on the
lower housing for the low-speed bearing, and two at the input end of the low-speed shaft.
Both the upper low-speed shaft bearing and the lower low-speed shaft bearing are grease-lubricated. The
upper low speed bearing is pre-greased at the factory.
To re-grease the upper bearing, remove the plastic button plug from the input side L.S. seal cage. Pump
NLGI #2 bearing grease into the seal cage through the fitting opposite the plastic button until grease
appears at the button plughole.
Reinstall the button plug before operating the unit.
To grease the lower bearing, remove the small pipe plug located on the lower housing just beneath the
output side grease fitting (Figure 17). Pump NLGI #2 bearing grease into the bearing cavity until grease
appears at the plughole.
Grease – Lubricated Seals
The high-speed shaft and the input end of the low-speed shaft are equipped with grease-purge seals,
which minimize entry of contaminants into the unit. The purge seal at the high-speed shaft should be
greased during installation (see Figure 17, above) and at regular maintenance intervals. The purge seal
cavity at the low-speed shaft cover may be left empty if extruded grease could contaminate the product.
For Triple Reduction Drives Only-
(Total ratios above 31.4:1): All triple reduction adapter modules are shipped lubricated from the factory.
The pipe plug must be removed and replaced with the breather before start-up to avoid damage to the
module.

HAYWARD GORDON LTD.
SECTION II: OPERATION & MAINTENANCE

GENERAL INFORMATION
Refer to the unit nameplate. Operate the unit only within the horsepower and output speed range for which
it was selected and specified. Failure to observe limits of speed, torque or other load conditions, may void
the warranty. Proper installation and operation is the key to long trouble free mixer service. The following
is a list of points to cover during installation and operation:
1. Ensure the mixer rotation is correct before permanently wiring the motor.
2. Read all tags, nameplates and this manual prior to operating the unit.
3. Check motor operating amperage against motor nameplate amperage.
4. Do not operate in a fluid with a specific gravity or viscosity higher than that for which the unit is
designed.
5. Do not attempt to start a unit with the impeller buried in solids or in a "set up" fluid.
6. Maintain operating temperatures and pressures of vessel within design limitations for stuffing box
and mechanical seal units.
7. A minimum of 4" radial clearance must be maintained between the impeller and any obstruction.
8. Any anticipated changes in motor horsepower, mixer speed, shaft length, impeller diameter or
blade width, etc. should be discussed with Hayward Gordon prior to making changes.
WARNING: Consult all applicable local and national safety codes for proper guarding of rotating elements.
START-UP
Before start-up, check all fasteners, fittings, vents, plugs and connections that may have been loosened
during preparation and installation. Check oil and grease levels and make sure all foundation or mounting
bolts are securely tightened.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
After the First Week
Check all external fasteners and plugs for tightness.
NOTE: Gears and internal bearings have been factory set and require no adjustments. Driven
shaft bearings require no maintenance other than periodic re-greasing.
After the First Month -
1. Start the unit. When the sump oil reaches normal operating temperature, shut the drive down and
immediately drain the oil. The magnetic plug should be cleaned at this time.
2. Flush the unit immediately with warm (100°F) oil of the same type and viscosity used in the
original fill. Pour or pump oil equivalent in volume to 25% of the original fill through the unit. If
necessary, repeat the procedure until clean oil appears at the drain.
3 Close the drain and refill the unit to the correct level with fresh oil.
NOTE: If declared to be in good condition by the supplier, reclaimed oil filtered through a 10
micron or finer filter may be used to refill the unit.
Periodically
Check oil level and oil condition with unit stopped and oil at normal operating temperature. Add oil if
required (Do Not Overfill).
PAGE 24 of 47
HAYWARD GORDON LTD.
NOTE: If the oil level has risen since the previous check, have the oil analyzed for water content.
Moisture in the oil may indicate seal leakage or condensation. Drain the oil, correct the defect and
refill the unit with fresh oil.
Every 2500 Operating Hours or Not Less Than Once Every Six Months
1. Drain and replace R & O or Extreme Pressure oil.
NOTE: The change interval for Synthetic lubricants can be extended to 8000-10,000 operating
hours. Ask the lubricant suppliers to test oil from the unit and to recommend an economical
change schedule.
NOTE: Seasonal temperature variations or changes in operating conditions may require more
frequent oil changes or changes in oil viscosity. The magnetic plug should also be cleaned at this
time.
2. Re-grease purged seals.
NOTE: Purged seals should be re-greased whenever the grease shows signs of contamination.
Pump fresh grease into the seal cavity while rotating the shaft until fresh grease can be wiped
away. The low-speed shaft can be reached by removing the shaft cover at the input side. (See
Figure 12, page 14.) The high-speed shaft can be reached through the panel (window) in the C-
Face motor adapter.
3. Re-grease Bearings.
a) Low-speed Shaft -- Input side: Prior to each oil change, remove the button plug on the side of
the seal cage. Pump 6 ounces of an NLGI #2 grease through the fitting on the seal cage
nearest the housing. DO NOT APPLY EXCESSIVE PUMPING PRESSURE: overfilling the
cavity may pop the seal cage out of the housing. Replace the button plug when greasing is
complete.
NOTE: Some old or excess grease may enter the unit and will be drained away with the oil
change.
b) Low-speed Shaft -- Output side: Remove the small pipe-plug below the grease fitting on the
housing base. Pump an NLGI #2 grease into the bearing cavity through the fitting just above
the plug until clean grease appears at the plughole. Replace the plug when greasing is
complete.
4. Inspect Couplings: The C-Face motor coupling is of the elastomeric jaw type. It requires no
maintenance but should be replaced when the elastomeric element is no longer intact.
DEACTIVATION & STORAGE

Deactivation of Operating Units
Short-Term Shutdown
Units may be deactivated and left on line for up to four months without special precautions.
CAUTION: If the unit is to be removed from installation for storage, follow the removal procedures

Figure 40: Mechanical Seal

DRIVE REMOVAL
1. Drain oil from housing by removing pipe plug at main drain.
2. Remove two pedestal access covers (if applicable)
3. IMPORTANT: To prevent galling and to provide a lubricant between the mechanical sleeve and
shaft, apply an anti galling compound such as Molykote to the shaft.
4. Disengage the rotating parts of the mechanical seal so that the shaft can slide freely thru the seal.
On most single outside seals this is done by backing off the setscrews in the seal locking collar
located near the top of the seal. For cartridge type seals the setscrews are accessed thru a port
in the side of the seal cartridge.
5. Remove the 4 cap screws (#171) from the seal cartridge or seal gland (#170) depending on the
type of seal. The seal should now be free to slide up the mixer shaft. DO NOT FORCE THE
SEAL. If it does not slide with only a slight resistance try spiralling the sleeve around the shaft. If
it still does not move, determine the cause of hang-up before proceeding.
6. Raise the seal (#170) until it contacts the bottom of the mixer drive seal cage. Position the split
collar tool supplied with your seal to the output shaft (#150) just below the seal and finger tighten
it to the shaft. Place two pieces of ½ inch keystock against the shaft and spanning the opening in
PAGE 46 of 47
HAYWARD GORDON LTD.
the flange (#120). Loosen and lower the split collar onto the keystock, taking care not to score
the shaft. Tighten the split collar in this position. Lower the seal until it sets on top of the split
collar. Remove the cap screws (#16) and lower the seal cage onto the top of the seal. Secure
the shaft (#150) inside the vessel to prevent shifting.
7. Refer to Service Instructions, LIFTING & MOVING (page 8) and OFF-LINE SERVICE & REPAIR
(page 31) for Dismounting the Unit. Remove the 4 screws (#101) that hold the drive to the
pedestal. Using the 3 lifting eyebolts (#14) in the drive base, lift off the drive and set it aside.
MECHANICAL SEAL REMOVAL
1. Slide the seal (#170) up and off the end of the shaft (#150).
2. Remove the mechanical seal to a clean room area before disassembly of seal components. A
spare seal cartridge may now be installed. If the seal is to be rebuilt before replacement, cover
the shaft end and vessel opening with a suitable cover to prevent vessel contamination.
REASSEMBLY PREPARATION
1. Inspect and clean the shaft (#150) end and remove any scratches, nicks, or burrs that may
damage O-rings during reassembly. Special attention should be given to the area where the seal
sleeve was previously set screwed to the shaft.
2. Inspect and clean the mating surfaces between the pedestal flange (#120) and the seal (#170)
and remove any scratches, nicks, or burrs, which would prevent proper sealing of the seal.
SEAL REASSEMBLY
1. Apply a small amount of lubricant that is process compatible to the seal sleeve O-ring and to the
shaft to facilitate sliding of the seal on the agitator shaft. Special care should be taken when
sliding O-rings over keyways or other shaft features to prevent damage.
2. Lower the seal (#170) on the agitator shaft (#150) until it seats on the split collar tool.
DRIVE ASSEMBLY
1. Refer to LIFTING & MOVING (page 8) AND INSTALLATION OF REDUCER.(PAGE 8). Install
cap screws (#101), attaching drive to pedestal (#120). Assemble seal cage per instructions
Installing Mixer Shaft in Reducer on Page 12 of the same section.
2. Raise seal. Remove the split collar tool and the keystock supports. Clean and inspect the mating
faces of the seal and flange.
3. Inspect the shaft for any damage to the shaft where the tools were used. Reapply lubricant if
required. Lower the seal (#170) and bolt to the pedestal/flange with 4 cap screws (#171)
4. Set the seal compression to the seal manufacturer’s recommendation. Tighten the driving
setscrews.
5. Reconnect and test sealant lines and electrical lockout. Confirm direction of rotation and that
there are no in-tank obstacles.
6. Replace the pedestal/flange access covers (#121).
7. Refill drive with oil to the proper level and check grease levels. Check all fasteners, fitting, vents,
plugs and connections that may have loosened during maintenance.

Trouble What to inspect Action
Overheating 1. Motor Overloaded Determine whether the specific gravity or viscosity

of the process has changed from that originally
anticipated.
Inspect impeller(s) for material build-up.
Have additional baffles been added to the vessel, or
the size of the baffle increased?
Check the proper impeller rotation, as shown on
certified print.
The flow pattern developed by a pitched (45o down)
bladed turbine should not be hindered by locating
the impeller close to the tank bottom. Normally, the
turbine should be spaced a minimum of 0.3 impeller
diameters above the tank bottom.
See NOISE (Below).
2. Is oil level too low? Check oil level dipstick to see that housing is
accurately filled with lubricant, to the specified level.
(So not check while running).
3. Grease seals. There are four grease fittings, three of which

lubricate the grease seals. These are located on
the C-face motor adapter plate, on the low speed
shaft cover at the top of the drive, and on the lower
housing for the lower low speed bearing. These
must all be greased.
4. Breather or vent. Breather or vent must be open and clean. Clean

regularly in a solvent.
5. Grade of oil. Oil must be of grade specified in lubrication

instructions. If it is not, flush unit and refill with
correct grade.
6. Condition of oil. Check to see if oil is oxidized, dirty, or of high

sludge content. Change oil.
7. Stuffing box, if supplied. Stuffing box gland must not be over-tightened. See
“Packing Procedure, “for proper packing and break-
in (Included if applicable.)
8. Are bearings properly adjusted and Bearings must not be pinched. Adjustable tapered
lubricated? bearings must be set at proper bearing lateral
clearance. All Shafts should spin freely when
disconnected from load. In addition to the grease
seal locations above, the upper LS bearing is
greased thru the fitting located at the top of the
housing, just under the LS shaft cover.
Noise 1. Inspect impellers. Be sure clearance between the impeller and in-tank
construction ( including tank walls for anchors,
scrapers, etc.) is sufficient to permit unhindered
rotating.
2. Rust formation in drive due to Make necessary provisions to prevent entrance of

entrance of water or humidity. water. Use lubricant with good rust inhibiting
properties. Make sure bearings and gears are
