Maintenance/cleaning, storage and transportation
Maintenance:
No maintenance is required for the hand pump and it cannot be repaired by the operator ei-
ther. In the case of a defect the appliance must be sent back to the manufacturer for repair.
Check the seals and O-rings for fractures and wear before use.
Replace defective or worn seals and O-rings.
Cleaning:
Clean the hand pressure pump with a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth.
Do not use sharp objects or aggressive cleaning agents to clean the pump. Avoid contact with
fluid or aggressive media.
Storage and transportation:
For storage and transportation we recommend our transportation case, which is available as
an accessory.
The tight-fitting rigid foam inlay offers optimum protection for the hand pump with pressure
hose and accessories. A reference gauge of a suitable size can be transported and stored in
the case without being removed.
Before storage, we recommend that you consider the following points:
Clean the hand pump and the accessories.
Turn the fine adjustment valve in a clockwise direction un-
til the thread is no longer visible ( illustration).
Check that the switch valve is at its usual setting (pres-
sure/vacuum).
Open the pressure relief valve.
IMPORTANT! Do not store under pressure!
Only store the hand pump with the pressure relief valve open. This ensures that no pres-
sure can be built up by unintentional pumping movements.
