How to change the pump fluid (CVP Only)
Under some unusual conditions or for servicing
purposes, it may be necessary to change or drain
the pump fluid.
Switch on the pump and run it for about 10 minutes.
If the pump is not connected to the system, ensure
that the vacuum inlet is blanked off.
When warm, switch the pump off, position the pump
at the edge of a bench and connect the drain hose in
the drain socket as shown.
Position a heat resistant plastic jug of at least 1 litre
capacity under the drain hose and switch the pump
on.
Run the pump for about 30 seconds after which the
jug should contain approximately 800 ml.
Handle with care, as the oil will be hot.
Switch the pump off and remove the drain hose.
If your pump is to be returned for servicing, pack the
pump in the box provided and complete the
decontamination certificate that will have been sent
to you.
To refill the pump, remove the cover access plate
and unscrew the filler cap.
Using a suitable funnel, refill the pump to the correct
level, replace the filler cap and access plate and run
for 30 seconds.
Stop and fill to the correct level.
Further operation notes on the pump will be found in
the pump manual.
