cleaning and/or replacement is found in the
Atlas™

Servicing Guide
.
Cause 5:
Airlock in Pump Assembly.

The pump block assembly and possibly the piston side of

procedure can be split into two distinct operations:
Bleeding air from the pump block assembly and bleeding
air from the piston assembly.
Bleeding Air from the Pump Block Assembly
To gain access to the oil bleed screw (

first be removed. (In Fig 9. the transport screw (

) is shown but
normally this has been removed for use.)

Loosen and remove the four securing screws and lift the pump plate
and the pump block upper gasket (

gasket material. Loosen, but do not remove the oil bleed screw (
