NOTE 1
Maintenance cycles must be performed based on the type of work to which the pump is subjected.
The work cycle, temperature and quality of the pumped fluid, the type and quality of the energy sources and the condition of the used
accessories are all significant factors that have an impact on the service life of the pump components.
NOTE 2
The indication in the table refers to water as the pumped fluid. For more accurate instructions on how to replace the seals when the
other permitted fluids are pumped, refer to the manual of the end machine in which the pump is incorporated.
If the pump experiences a reduction of its performance levels, immediately check the type of problem using our
Troubleshooting
list as
reference. If no problem arises, the pump must be checked after 1000 hours of operation and, then, every 500 hours.
For Hawk pump maintenance, and for seal replacement in particular, use the tool kit supplied by LEUCO S.p.A. and fit genuine spare
parts at all times.
