Lubricated-for-life ball bearings together with monitoring devices ensure optimum pump reliability provided that
the pump has been connected and operated in accordance with the operating instructions.
Should, nevertheless, a malfunction occur, do not improvise but ask your ABS customer service department for
assistance.
This applies particularly if the pump is continually switched off by the current overload in the control panel, by
the thermal sensors of the thermo-control system or by the seal monitoring system (DI).
Regular inspection and care is recommended to ensure a long service life.
