Lock the end of the shaft opposite the pump and then turn of the impeller counter clockwise looking at the pump. The remainder is simple nuts and bolts.

How to remove the impeller of pentair booster pump?

Remove the rear motor cover, you will need pliers and a 7/16 open end wrench. The opposite end of the impeller has a shaft that has to be secured by the wrench. The shaft has a notch on each side, it could be behind the two small springs that hold the spinning connection. There is a bigger shaft version that needs just a small end cap taken off and that will expose the shaft to be held and that is a bigger wrench. Once the shaft is secured, you may need pliers to turn off the impeller. Turn counter clockwise. Remember to be careful, it's plastic and well used. Don't forget the seals to put it back together.

I am having difficulty removing the impeller on my Polaris PB4 Booster pump. I removed the seal plate and held the motor and attempted to turn the impeller counterclockwise. Can't get the impeller to...

For an impeller really stuck on the motor shaft you need to pull the motor thru-bolts and remove the rotor with the pump still attached from the stator. Lock the rotor in a vice and turn the impeller off with a large set of channel locks or a large strap wrench.

How do you take off motor

1. Disconnect the booster pumpset from the power
supply.
2. Take the pump frontcase off by taking the bolts
holding it.
3. Take the pump impeller from the shaft. This is
either bolted or screwed to the shaft that is
actually an extension of the motor.
4. Carefully take the mechanical seal off from the
shaft.
5. Unbolt the pump backcase, from the motor,
6. Now you have the motor separated from the pump.

How do I take a booster pump apart to replace the motor?

Pull the back cap off the motor and hold the shaft as you spin off the impeller. The rest is straight forward enough.

My polaris booster pump will not come on. when i turn it on the motor makes a humming noise but wont start

Does it have a century motor? If so, remove the shaft cover plate at the rear and try rotating the shaft with a very thick slotted screwdriver or substitute until it turns fairly easily. Often some mild oxide develops around components that just needs to be disturbed.
