IV. Routine Maintenance

General

Always disconnect the pump from the mains before inspection or
disassembly.
Clean the pump thoroughly.
The motor housing can be hot when the pump is just switched off.

Maintenance Schedule

Check oil once a year. If water is present oil will be milky in color.

Lubricants

• The bearings are greased for life and need no refill.
• The oil reservoir is filled with SHELL VITREA ISO-VG 46. Viscosity: 46 c St.

Cable Entry

Especially when the pump has been in use for a long time, the compression of the rubber

seal will be retained.
