Preventive Maintenance

Pump Ends

p/n: 029-0020-61-0

For example, lubricate all moving parts of the suction, discharge, hose drain,
and multi drain valves and valve linkage with a good grade, lithium base grease.

Note: The PMD valve should be lubricated every six (6) months.

Verify All Gauges are in Working Order

Any gauge that is repeated in another panel, must agree with the gauge on the
operator's panel. Gauges not reading within 10% of the calibrated test gauge
must be removed from service and re-calibrated.

Intake Strainers

Check and clean any debris from the intake.

Flush the pump, if required, using departmental/company procedures.

Repair or replace any damaged strainers.

Inspect Water and Foam Tanks

Visually inspect water and foam tanks for proper level and gauge readings. If
any debris is present, flush the tanks to protect the pump from wear caused by
dirty water or foam concentrate.

Operate Pump Controls

Operate the pump drive controls to verify the pump engages. Verify the indica-
tor lights work properly.
