MAINTENANCE
Other than keeping the pump clean, there is very little maintenance required.
Inspect and clean the inlet filter on the inlet hose at least monthly.
Clean the metal “mouth” portion of the battery clips with steel wool monthly to
maintain good electrical connection to the battery.
Check the power cables and clips for any damage before each use; repair or
replace as necessary.
Hoses and fittings should be inspected before each use and replaced / re-
paired if cracked / worn or leaking.
Rotor and vanes will eventually wear, and should be replaced if pump perfor-
mance degrades. See the “Operational Problems” section to determine if re-
placement is needed.
Drain hoses and pump and store in a clean, dry place when not in use.
Caution:
Ensure that the pump is turned off and that the clips are re-
moved from the power supply before carrying out any cleaning or mainte-
nance.
