7. Maintenance
To inspect or replace either the valves or the
diaphragm, disconnect electrical supply the user must
firstly remove the pump head clamping rings, this is
done by unscrewing the 2 clamping screws.
This will release the pump head, and allow easy access
to the valves & diaphragm. The diaphragm and valves
should be checked for any excessive wear, damage or
cracks, and should be replaced if necessary. If the
diaphragm needs to be replaced, undo the nut in the
centre of the diaphragm and remove the diaphragm
plate & diaphragm. Note: The centre pin may be in one
of several positions, this will not affect replacement of
the diaphragm). When replacing the diaphragm this can
be fitted either cup up or down. Replace clamping plate
making sure the rounded edge faces the diaphragm,
also ensure that the outer sealing edge of the
diaphragm is located securely in the grooves between
the body & gear housing (failure to do this will cause
the pump NOT to prime). Refit clamping rings and tight-
en screws.
8. Fault Finding
The electric motor runs but no water is pumped?
Check:
a) that inlet hose connection is airtight, free from block-
ages, and does not collapse.
b) that the shower/sink drain is not clogged.
c) that the valves in the pump are not blocked & are
seating properly in the pump head.
d) that the diaphragm has not split - replace if damaged.
The motor will not operate?
Check:
a) the isolator switch is on.
b) there is 12 volts from the battery.
c) the in-line fuse & ensure all electrical connections are
tight and free from corrosion. (If fuse has blown check
for debris in pump head and clean out if necessary
replace fuse and run pump - see previous page).
