Explanation of symbols
= Oil screw
= Inspection plug
It is easier to drain the oil if the other oil screw
is also removed.
Fill up with new oil.
A paraffin oil with viscosity close to ISO VG32 is
recommended. The pump is delivered from fac-
tory with this type of oil.
In applications where poisonous properties are
of less concern, a mineral oil with viscosity up to
ISO VG32 can be used.
Always replace the O-rings on the oil screws. Put
the screws back and tighten them.
Changing the oil
Lift the pump horizontally on relief table.
Turn the pump so that one of the oil screws
faces downwards. Lock the pump with a support
preventing it from rolling over.
Unscrew the oil screw.
