Maintenance and repair

General maintenance

• Keep area around pump clean. Clean off
filling port area prior to filling reservoir.
Clean area around filler after filling as
lubricants will attract dirt.
• Keep lubricants clean and free of dirt
and debris.

System malfunction

• Refer to Troubleshooting (page ) to
determine where to look if problems occur.
• Refer to corresponding sections for
replacement and repair of specific areas.
• Each part is identified with a number
keyed to a matching part on
illustrated views.
• General recommendations of tools
required are also specified in each step.
• Pay particular attention to warning state-
ments to prevent personal injury and pos-
sible damage to pump components.

Outlet check service

Refer to Troubleshooting (page ) to
determine if outlet check valve () is
cause of failure.
Pump will not build up sufficient lubricant
pressure if outlet check () is fouled († Fig. 
and Fig. , page ). Foreign material may
lodge beneath check ball () or between
check disc () and seat () of bushing
assembly (). Sealing surfaces of seat must
form a perfect seal. Clean parts or replace if
pitted, worn or scored.
 Turn off and disconnect electric power
supply to pump assembly ().
 Standard tools required are bench
mounted vice, a set of open end
/
wrenches ranging from 7
large  in (600 mm) adjustable wrench
and smaller  in (254 mm) adjustable
wrench.
 Remove elbow () and hose ().
 Remove outlet check assembly () and
adapter () by loosening adapter from
tee ().
 Remove adapter () from outlet check
assembly ().
 Remove outlet connector () from

kets ( and ).
Reverse above procedure to reassemble.
Torque check assembly to  ft-lbf
(135 Nm).

Follower
(MSO equipped)
If follower foam appears to be damaged or
does not wipe sides of reservoir effectively
service may be necessary († Fig. , page 
and Fig. IPB , page ).
 Disconnect electric supply from pump.
 Remove bolts (), eyebolts () and lock
washers () which attach cover () to
reservoir ().
 Lift pump (), vent valve () and drum
