5.2 Maintenance and Inspection

Regular maintenance and inspections are a necessity for continued efficient

functioning of the pump. If any abnormal conditions are noticed, refer to the

Troubleshooting section and take corrective measures immediately. It is

recommended that a spare pump be kept ready in case of any problems.

Prior to inspecting

Before inspecting the pump, make certain the power supply (circuit breaker, etc.) is

turned off. Then, unplug the cable assembly from the receptacle or detach it from

the terminals. Failure to follow this precaution may result in a serious accident from

electrical shock or unexpected starting of the pump motor.

1. Washing the pump

Remove accumulated matter from the surface of the pump and wash it with clean

water. Take special care to remove any debris from the impeller.

2. Inspecting the pump exterior

Look for any peeling or chipped paint, and make sure the nuts and bolts are

fastened tightly. Any cracks in the surface should be repaired by cleaning that area,

drying it and then applying a touch-up coating.

Note: Touch-up paint is not supplied. Note that some kinds of damage or

looseness may require that the unit be disassembled for repairs. Please consult

your nearest dealer or Wacker Neuson representative.

5.3 Storage

When the pump is out of use for an extended period, wash it and dry it thoroughly,

then store it indoors.

Note: Always run a test operation before putting the pump back into service.

If the pump is left in the water, it should be run a minimum of once a week.
