Check the effectiveness of the battery power supply (voltage activity);
Check if the fuse has blown;
Check for any foreign matter present in the pump body. To do this, disconnect the
power supply and unscrew the four fixing screws, remove the front cover plate and
inspect the chamber. Replace the cover plate in the same initial position after
inspection;
Avoid running the pump dry for more than a few minutes. Pumps found defective
that have run dry in the absence of fluid are not covered by warranty.
If it is expected that the pump will not be used for a period of at least 30 days, especially in the
case of usage with water, it is advisable to run fresh water through it and to then loosen the
front plate screws. Upon re-use, run the pump briefly (a few seconds) and tighten the screws
again. Check under conditions of maximum operating pressure that the motor current value
is within the motor label specifications.
