| MAINTENANCE |
- The Vacuum Pump requires occasional flushing. Remove the pressure gauge and run 1/4 cup of flushing solvent (GAST AH225 or equivalent) through the pump. If the pump fails to produce a vacuum when it is first turned on, a brief warm-up may free the blades and restore the normal functioning. The initial inspection should be performed at 500 hours.
- LUBRICATION: The automatic oiler should be refilled as needed with the proper oil. Use a high detergent automotive engine oil with a viscosity equivalent to SAE 10 or less.
- AIR FILTER: Clean the air filter regularly by removing it from its holder and washing thoroughly in the solvent. Replace the dried out filters.
- CONNECTIONS: Be sure all connections between primer and pump are tight.
- BEARINGS: Bearing life is dependent upon pump application, proper lubrication, proper cooling, and general operating conditions.
- VANES: Vane life is affected by general operating environment and such factors as pump speed, vacuum levels, and duty cycle.
