Regular inspection of valves and seals is recommended with cleaning and
replacement of components as necessary . Replacement parts are available
in service kits and assemblies from dealers or direct from the manufacturer
.
Note: For winter storage
, ensure that the pump is drained completely to avoid frost
damage.
Helpful hints:
a) The pump can be serviced using Service Kit AK1304 which contains the
complete set of washers for the Mk3 and Mk4 pump.
b) If the pump is slow to prime, the cup washer may be worn or the valves
are not seating properly. Check and replace these if neccessary using Service
Kit AK1304.
c) If the pump will not pump: -check that the suction line is in the water.
- check that the hose connections are secure and that there are no air
leaks.
- Check the washers in the pump, they may need to be replaced.
- if the outlet is an on/off faucet or tap, make sure that it is open to
allow water to flow.
d) If the pump is leaking, it is likely that the gland washer is worn.
A replacement for this part is contained in Service Kit AK1304. |
