Maintenance
Periodic: Once a day, week, or whenever you are in the pump house. See Diagram 7 on Pg. 5
 Rinse the piston where it enters the seal using the small squirt bottle provided. Simply use water. This will help
to eliminate any build up of crystals that may damage seals. Perform this procedure once a day, week, or
whenever you are in the pump house.
 Check for leaks, drips, .. etc. Wipe clean as necessary.
Scheduled: 1 month or 250 hrs.
See Diagrams 8 & 9 on Pg. 5
 Lubricate spindle spindle assembly as shown below using FGL-1 Spray, one small shot. Take care to assure
only the inside of the spindle and bearing are lubricated. Carefully wipe off any excess lubricate from the
piston assembly.
Scheduled:
4 months or 1000 hrs.
 Check for leaks at all fittings and pump head. Change seals and/or fittings if necessary.
 Grease piston drive pins using supplied syringe. Apply a small glob of grease to the piston drive pin where it
enters the drive bearing.
 Wipe box and components down with a cloth, spraying a light mist of protectant oil, such as Silikroil, on all metal
components to help inhibit corrosion.
Extended Shut Down or Storage:
Always flush your Chloritrol® CL unit with fresh water for 10 minutes prior to any extended shut down to ensure
easy startup later. Pump units that are not flushed prior to extended shut down will probably seize and need to be
returned to FMI for rebuild.
* Your CL unit comes factory set at 50% flow
