Disassemble Pump

With the Pump removed from the Pump Tower, but still connected

to the Grow Surface:

Use a butter knife to pry off Face Plate from Pump.

• Place Pump on its side on a flat surface.
• Rest butter knife in the seam between the Face Plate and

the rest of the Pump as shown in picture at right.

• Tilt the butter knife away from the Face Plate and gently

pry the Face Plate from the Pump.
Hint: Removing the Face Plate requires leverage, not strength.

And, don’t worry about breaking the Face Plate – it is sturdy.

• If necessary, use toothbrush to scrub off residue from

Pump to ease removal of Face Plate.

Face Plate

Don’t worry if this piece (or the clear tube) is not

attached to your Pump when you remove it.

Sometimes they come out with the Pump and

sometimes they remain in the Pump Tower.

Either location is okay.

Remove Impeller with small pliers, tweezers or fingers.
