Disconnect Displacement Pump
1.
Flush pump; see Prime/Flush, page 12. Stop pump
at bottom of its stroke. Follow Pressure Relief Pro-
cedure, page 11.
2.
Disconnect air hose.
3.
Disconnect fluid hose. Hold fluid outlet fitting with a
wrench to keep it from being loosened while you dis-
connect fluid hose.
4.
Remove platen from displacement pump. Refer to
Supply Units Repair-Parts manual 312373 for
instructions.
Keep hands and fingers away from the priming piston
during operation and whenever the pump is charged
with air to reduce the risk of injury. On the pump down-
stroke the priming piston extends beyond the intake
housing to pull the material into the pump. The priming
piston works under extreme force. During operation
and whenever the pump is charged with air, the priming
piston can severely injure or amputate a hand or finger,
or break a tool, caught between it and the intake hous-
ing. Always relieve the pressure before checking, clear-
ing, cleaning, flushing, or servicing any part of the
pump.
On Premier air-powered pumps, the rocker arms
(located beneath the rocker arm covers) move when air
is supplied to the motor. Never operate the pump with
the rocker arm covers removed.
If your system includes a remote DataTrak, discon-
nect the air motor harness from the motor as well.
