MAINTENANCE
NOTE: This pump is designed for minimum maintenance. The motor
bearings are self-lubricating. Inspect the pump and components regularly
for fuel leaks and make sure the hose and power cord are in good condition.
Keep the pump exterior clean to help identify leaks.
IMPORTANT: Do not use this pump for water, chemicals or herbicides.
Dispensing any fluid other than those listed in this manual (see BEFORE
YOU BEGIN: Fueling Requirements at front of manual) may damage the
pump. Use of the pump with unauthorized fluids will void the warranty.
Clean or Replace Strainer
1. Turn the pump off and disconnect from power. Using 5mm hex wrench,
remove the coverplate, O-ring, and inlet strainer and inspect for
damage or clogs (see Figure 11). Clean the strainer with a soft-bristled
brush and solvent. If the strainer is very dirty, compressed air may be
used. If damaged, replace the strainer.
2. Clean the coverplate and O-ring. Coat the O-ring lightly with grease.
Reinstall the strainer, O-ring and coverplate. Ensure the O-ring is
properly seated and tighten securely.

REPAIR
IMPORTANT: Carefully inspect all parts for wear or damage. Replace
components, as necessary. The Illustrated Parts List gives information
on replacement parts and kits. Review the Safety Instructions before
proceeding.
Observe precautions against electrical shock when
servicing the pump. Always disconnect power before
repairing or servicing. Never apply electrical power
to the system when any of the coverplates are removed.
Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels. Use
protective goggles, gloves and aprons in case of
splashing or spills. Change saturated clothing and wash skin promptly with
soap and water.
Service O-rings
NOTE: A Wet Seal Kit contains all seals for your pump and should be
on hand when performing repairs. Old seals may then be replaced with
new seals.
1. In general, when inspecting O-rings, look for breaks, wear, and signs
of deterioration, such as swelling.
2. Replace, as necessary.
3. Before seating, coat O-rings with light grease.
