This Whale Gusher® 10 is designed to only require minimal maintenance.

WARNING

: Before servicing pump, drain water from system.

Inspection:

The diaphragms and inlet valves are held in place by the groove in the pump body and cover. Following inspection,
ensure that they are seated properly in the grooves before tightening the covers in place. Regular inspection of the
pump is recommended. Access to the pump chamber is quick and easy, requiring no tools. Rubber components
should be replaced if worn or every three years regardless of condition.
During periodic shipboard inspections, the bilge pump should be visually inspected to confirm parts are in good 
condition, especially rubber parts and mounting arrangements. The pump should be operated to show that it pumps
water efficiently.

Annual Checks 

Whale advise that the boat's plumbing system is checked annually for leaks and obstructions.
