4.10 Clearing Jams
Overview
Large solids or accumulated sand and sediment may become lodged in the pump 
housing. This debris prevents the plunger arm from making a full stroke, causing 
the pump to stall or the crank to slip on the output shaft. The debris must be 
cleared before resuming operation. 
Prerequisites
 Engine is stopped
 Machine is cool to the touch
If the pump 
has stalled
Follow the procedure below to clear a jam if the pump has stalled.
1. Remove the handle (a).
2. Remove the four bolts (b) securing the pump housing (c).
3. Clean all debris and obstructions from the pump housing.
4. Re-install the four bolts and handle.
If the crank is 
slipping
Follow the procedure below to re-tighten the crank if a jam has caused it to slip.
1. Loosen the hand knob screws (d) and remove the metal guard (e).
2. Remove the handle and bolts as described in the above procedure.
3. Clean all debris and obstructions from the pump housing.
4. Loosen the crank lockscrew (f). Re-torque the crank lockscrew to 95 Nm (70 
ft.lbs.)
NOTICE: Do not over-torque or under-torque the lockscrew! Improper torque can 
break the connecting rod or cause premature wear of internal parts.
