Refill and
maintenance
C AUTION
Pump was tested and shipped with
small amount of grease.
Flush pump before connecting it to
system to prevent possible contamina-
tion of pumped grease.
Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or damage to component.
C AUTION
Do not over fill reservoir. Extreme
pressure can cause reservoir to explode.
Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or damage to component.
Use same grease fitting (
) to fill or refill
reservoir (
† Fig.
,
page
). During first fill
of reservoir, initiate a lubrication cycle to run
motor. Stirring paddle of running motor
helps to evenly distribute grease in reservoir,
minimizing air pockets.
To speed up filling or refilling of pump,
grease fitting can be replaced with
/
in
(3 mm)
swivel connection to attach
hose from larger output filling pump.
Pump cleaning
Use petroleum or benzene based cleaning
solutions. Do not use tri–, perchloroethylene
or similar solvents. Do not use polar organics
such as alcohol, methyl alcohol, acetone or
similar solvents.
