How do you install impeller on mark 75A?

[bigfishin]

I would appreciate someones help on this. I can't get the round pin into the slot on the impeller. theres a flat spot on the shaft thats recessed to give the pin room to fit in, but theres no way to hold the pin there while putting the impeller on. I hope that someone has dealt with this before and could help me.<br />thanks so much.

This takes skill, patience and much luck.Try marking the impeller so you know where the groove is,grease the flat to hold the pin,push the impeller down into the housing,and,believe it or not,turn the drive shaft clockwise at the same time.<br />DHP

That's just about it. It really helps to lube up the impeller vanes with KY jelly so they don;t resist spinning into the housing. Don't use petrolium based lubricants as they can attack the rubber.<br /><br />Yes, I keep a tube in my tool box.
