WARNING
Before addressing the following malfunctions, turn off the power from the control and
pumping centre, isolate the pressurised air supply and depressurise the lubrication line
connected to the pump outlet. Any residual pressure in the system when opening or
disconnecting components may cause components to be thrown or lubricant to spray,
causing injury to people or damage to the environment.

In case of a malfunction:
– Check the air pressure and the condition of the air lines.
