TROUBLESHOOTING/MAINTENANCE
If the pump assembly fails to indicate a pressure increase/decrease after considera-
ble pumping action of the handle, check the following things:

Assure that the connections between the pump, the hose end and the at-
tached instrument(s) are tight and retry pumping.

Check that all the unused output connectors are properly plugged. Also
check that the release valve is closed.

Check that the pressure/vacuum selector is not left somewhere in between
pressure side and vacuum side. If so, push it in place as needed.
If a pressure increase/decrease
still cannot be obtained, it’s possible that one or more
of the seals in the Pressure Pump is leaking and needs to be replaced.
If the test pump has not been used for a longer period of time, the first lift may be
somewhat sluggish. This effect will disappear again during further operation.
Do not continue pumping if the functionality of the pump is not normal. Lo-
cate the fault before you continue using the pump.
Seal Replacement
Depending on the frequency of use, the seals will eventually need replacing. The
replacement seals are an optional accessory, but the picture on next page presents
where the seals go.
