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 valves are not
seating properly. Check and
replace these if necessary
using Service Kit AK1304.
c) If the pump will not pump:
- check that the suction line is
in the water.
- check that the hose connec-
tions are secure and 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.
