WARNING:    Before proceeding with any maintenance, disconnect power source. 

If the vacuum pump (14) takes too long to attain full vacuum, it may require maintenance.   

Replace the diaphragm, valve flappers or head gasket as necessary to obtain acceptable pump 
performance (see REPLACEMENT PARTS LIST). 

Replacing the Diaphragm 

1)  Remove the four head screws (1) and remove the head (2). 
2)  Remove the four diaphragm hold-down screws (10) and the 

diaphragm hold-down plate (12)

3)  Replace the diaphragm (13) and reverse the steps above for 

reassembly. 

Replacing the Intake Valve Flapper 

1)  Remove the four head screws (1) and remove the head (2). 
2)  Remove the intake valve flapper screw (8) and the intake valve 

keeper (7). 

3)  Replace the intake valve flapper (11) and reverse the steps above 

for reassembly. 

Replacing the Exhaust Valve Flapper and Head 

Gasket 

1)  Remove the four head screws (1) and remove the head (2). 
2)  Invert the head and remove the four valve plate screws (9). 
3)  Lift out the valve plate (6) to access the exhaust valve flapper and 

head gasket.

4)  Remove the exhaust valve flapper screw (3) and the exhaust valve keeper (4), and replace 

the exhaust valve flapper (5).   

5)  Replace the head gasket (15) and reverse the steps above for reassembly.

CAUTION:

    Depending on the product, the vacuum system may require the valve plate (6) to be rotated to an orientation 

different from the one shown.    When removing the valve plate, always take note of its orientation in the pump head (2), and 

install the valve plate the same way during reassembly.    In all cases, the valve plate must be oriented so that its intake hole is 
matched with the head port that connects to the check valve.
