question on the Vortech
I see that red gasket but can't imagine it seals anythign so was wondering what it's for, maybe a vibration dampener fr the cover?

Thanks Pete!
I believe the reason for the gasket is more for friction than anything. The Nozzle turns and locks onto the Wet Side Frame as you can see by the key-style locking cutouts on the Wet Side Frame in the pics above. But, I believe the gasket give the Nozzle some friction so it doesn't back itself off due to vibration especially when the pump is frequently oscillating on and off.
