7.5 - Troubleshooting

The following chart describes the main problems that could occur during operation of the pump, together with an indication of the ap-
propriate corrective action. If the prescribed action fails to solve the problem, contact the manufacturer.
PROBLEM
Pump cannot be started
Pump stops working under load
Pump operates but no pressurized oil is
delivered
Pump fails to reach maximum pressu-
re
Pump delivers pressurized oil but load
is not lifted
Piston retracts although treadle is not
pressed on RELEASE side
Piston fails to perform retract stroke (sin-
gle acting cylinder)
Piston fails to perform retract stroke
(double acting cylinder)
Pump fl ow rate insuffi cient
