Storage
Check that all the openings on the pump are securely closed.
Fill up the pump with new operating fluid to the top edge of the sight glass.
Store the pump only indoors, preferably at temperatures between -10 °C and +40 °C.
– In rooms with moist or aggressive atmospheres, the pump must be airproof shrink-
wrapped in a plastic bag together with a bag of desiccant.
– After storage periods longer than two years, it is recommended to carry out main-
tenance and change the operating fluid before using the pump.
