Recovery
Fill the pump chamber with water
Thread connections tight with Teflon
coated sealing tape or hemp
Use a special coupling
Reduce the sucking height
Use a spiral hose
Check, consult the customer service
Install foot valve, check or clean
Renew the diaphragm (expendable part)
Produce the necessary air pressure (see
ch. 4)
Pressure switch justify so that a
difference of 2bar between switch on and
switch off pressure (see ch. 4)
Clean and reinstall foot valve
Renew pressure switch
Check pre- filter and pump hydraulic
(impeller) of contamination and if
necessary clean
Decrease the switch off pressure
Replace the pressure switch
Motor switches on after cooling down
automatically
Check power supply, fuse
Renew mechanical seal
