Also see the maintenance scheme in § 8.2 .

8.6.3 Fitting the pump hose
1. Clean the (new) pump hose on the outside and
fully lubricate it with Bredel Genuine Hose
Lubricant.
2. Turn on the pump and note the direction of the
pump rotation.
CAUTION
When the pressing shoes are worn the
compression force of the hose decreases.
If the compression force is too low, this
results in a loss of capacity by the backflow
of the liquid to be pumped.
Backflow results in a reduction of the life of
the pump hose.
WARNING
Fitting the pump hose is a powered proc-
ess and requires pump rotation.
Ensure the pump cover is properly fitted
and that body and tools are clear from
moving parts.
WARNING
For all weight and torque adjustment,
please see the technical information sec-
tion at the rear of this manual.
