With a minimum drive speed of 600 RPM, a pump should prime almost immediately, if provision is made to initially
purge the air from the system. Failure to prime within a reasonable length of time may result in damage due to lack
of lubrication. Inlet lines must be tight and free from air leaks. However, it may be necessary to crack a fitting on
the outlet side of the pump to purge entrapped air.

Periodic inspection of the fluid condition and tube or piping connections can save time-consuming
breakdowns and unnecessary parts replacement. The following should be checked regularly.
1. All hydraulic connections must be kept tight. A loose connection in a pressure line will permit the fluid to
leak out. If the fluid level becomes so low as to uncover the inlet pipe opening in the reservoir, extensive
damage to the pump can result. In suction or return lines, loose connections permit air to be drawn into
the system, resulting in noisy and/or erratic operation.
2. Clean fluid is the best insurance for long service life. Therefore, the reservoir should be checked
periodically for dirt or other contaminants.
If the fluid becomes contaminated the system should be thoroughly drained and the reservoir cleaned
before new fluid is added.
3. Filter elements also should be checked and replaced periodically. A clogged filter element results in a
higher pressure drop. This can force particles through the filter which would ordinarily be trapped, or can
cause the by-pass to open, resulting in a partial or complete loss of filtration.
4. A pump which is running excessively hot or noisy is a potential failure. Should a pump become noisy or
overheated, the machine should be shut down immediately and the cause of improper operation
corrected.

When hydraulic fluid is added to replenish the system, it should always be poured through a fine wire screen
(200 mesh or finer).
It is important that the fluid be clean and free of any substance which could cause improper operation or wear of
the pump or other hydraulic units. Therefore, the use of cloth to strain the fluid should be avoided to prevent lint
getting into the system.
