5.2 Maintenance and Inspection
Regular maintenance and inspections are a necessity for continued
efficient functioning of the pump. If any abnormal conditions are
noticed, refer to
Troubleshooting section and take corrective measures
immediately. It is recommended that a spare pump be kept ready in
case of any problems.
Prior to inspecting
Before inspecting the pump, make certain the power supply (circuit
breaker, etc.) is turned off. Then, unplug the cable assembly from the
receptacle or detach it from the terminals. Failure to follow this
precaution may result in a serious accident from electrical shock or
unexpected starting of the pump motor.
5.2.1 Washing the pump
Remove accumulated matter from the surface of the pump and wash
it with clean water. Take special care to remove any debris from the
impeller.
5.2.2 Inspecting the pump exterior
Look for any peeling or chipped paint, and make sure the nuts and
bolts are fastened tightly. Any cracks in the surface should be repaired
by cleaning that area, drying it and then applying a touch-up coating.
Note: Touch-up paint is not supplied. Note that some kinds of damage
or looseness may require that the unit be disassembled for repairs.
Please consult with your nearest dealer or Wacker representative.
Storage
When the pump is out of use for an extended period, wash it and dry it
thoroughly, then store it indoors.
Note:
Always run a test operation before putting the pump back into
service.
If the pump is left in the water, it should be run a minimum of once a
week.
