How to Rotate the Wet End on Your Hot Tub Circulation Pump
Why You May Need to Rotate Your Pump's Wet End
All standard Aqua-Flo Circ-Master and Beachcomber hush pump circulation pumps ship from the factory in a secure, foam encased package with the wet end discharge facing up (12 o clock position) to make sure the pump is not damaged in shipping.
If your spa requires the discharge to be facing to either the left or the right (3 or 9 o clock positions), you can easily rotate the wet end after you have received the pump by using these easy steps.
No disassembly of the pump is required for this simple task.
Step-by-Step Guide to Adjusting the Wet End Position
1. Locate the four through bolts on the back of the motor
2. Loosen the four through bolts with a screw driver
Important: do not fully remove the screws as they can be difficult to get back in
3. Once the through bolts are loosened, the wet end should rotate fairly easy. Turn the wet end to the required position
4. Line up the wet end with the holes in the motor to begin reassembling
5. Use your fingers to slightly tighten the through bolts, making sure the motor is correctly aligned with the wet end
6. Use the screw driver to securely tighten the bolts
Important: make sure you do not over tighten the bolts as this can lead to irreversible damage to the wet end
