Maintenance and Inspection
* The hose is a consumable part. Check it periodically. If any flaw or leak is found, replace it a
little early.

[Disassembling and inspecting the suction section]
1) Unscrew the oil resisting hose to remove it.
2) Loosen the pan-head screws that fix the pump unit on the oil tank and take out the pump
assembly from the oil tank. At this time, the ball spring provided between the pump unit and
hose hanger will jump out. Take care not to lose it.
3) Fix the main unit on the vice.
4) When the suction tube is loosened with a pipe wrench set on this tube, it can be separated
from the main unit.
5) Fix the suction tube on the vice and unscrew it with the pipe wrench set on the valve adapter.
WARNING
Gasoline is a high-volatility fuel. Do not use it to clean the pump in any case. Otherwise,
ignition or explosion may be caused.
