ryanjury Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hi all I have an FX5 that has started to rattle so I took it all apart for a clean when taking the motor assembly apart and taking the impeller out the bushing at the bottom fell out and I cant remember what way it goes together... Does the tapered bit go towards the impellor or towards the bottom of the housing? Manual only says to make sure you put it together right but not way right is.. And google search is no good either.. Also does the o ring for the bushing go over the bushing or inbetween the bushing and the bottom of the impeller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 the ceramic pipe that holds the impellor should fit on to the lille rubber bit. so the tapering end cups over the ceramic thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted December 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 lol the bushing is plastic, it is not like a 404 which has the rubber piece that pushes firmly into the hole in the bottom.. It has a large hole which somehow a rubber o ring and plastic piece fit into. I am sure someone who owns an FX5 will be able to help, the main problem is I brought it second hand and I am unsure if I have been sticking it together right from the beginning.. Manual is useless There is no hurry now as I dropped the impeller and broke it so had to setup a couple of spare filters transfer all media etc and order a new one in :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
