• Remove the front cover
• Remove the shoe that is not touching the pump hose
• Mount back the front cover
• Turn the rotor with the help of the motor so that the
remaining shoe is not pressing against the pump hose
• For storage periods of longer than 30 days, protect the
coupling surfaces (clamps, reducers, motors) with adequate
anti-rust protection
