Does it matter if you use the motor mounting plate with the 1” cut slot or the one without the slot? Are they inter-changeable?
Thanks
Thanks
Can you show a picture of what you are talking about?
Can you show the pump label?
What pump do you have?
How old is the pump?
The parts list shows the parts for the pumps.
It has a crack in it.What is wrong with the old plate?
Why are you replacing it?
The one with the slot is a SP1600F6. The one without it is a SP1600F5.
I replaced the motor mounting plate with the new one and it seems to be working fine.If it was my pump, I would probably just use the old part instead of buying a new part.
I doubt that there is any significant risk due to the crack.
The 8 bolts should keep the plate from coming apart during use.
Note: It is generally best to replace any defective parts, so I am not recommending that you use the old part; I am just saying what I would probably do.
You have to make the decision and take whatever risk there might be.
In any case, I think that the parts are probably interchangeable.
