Troubleshooting
No repair work shall be carried out during the warranty period
without prior factory approval. Liberty Pumps, Inc. assumes no
responsibility for damage or injury due to disassembly in the field.
Dismantling the pump voids the warranty. Servicing the pump
other than replacing cartridge kit, cleaning of pump inlet or
impeller should be referred to the factory or its authorized service
centers.

Replace neutralization cartridge using Liberty Pumps
replacement kit #K001898. See replacement steps above.
