Disconnecting fluid or pressure 
containment components during pump 
operation can cause serious personal 
injury or property damage.

 

 

Failure to relieve system pressure prior 
to performing pump service can cause 
serious personal injury or property 
damage.

  

Systems with meters will still 

be pressurized even after the hose is 
emptied

If pumping hazardous or toxic fluids, 
system must be flushed and 
decontaminated, inside and out, prior to 
performing service or maintenance 

 

NOTICE: 

Maintenance shall be performed by qualified 
technicians only.  Follow the appropriate 
procedures and warnings as presented in this

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE 

 

STRAINERS 

Strainers must be cleaned regularly to avoid pump 
starvation.  Schedule will depend upon the application and 
conditions. 
 
 

 

 

LUBRICATION 

NOTICE: 

To avoid possible entanglement in moving parts do not 
lubricate pump bearings or any other parts while pump is 
running 

Pump bearings should be lubricated every one to twelve weeks 
(AT MINIMUM), depending on the application, and operating 
conditions. 

Recommended Grease: 

Mobil® - Mobilgrease XHP222, 
Exxon® - RONNEX MP Grease, 
or equivalent. 

 

Greasing Procedure: 

1.  Remove the grease relief fittings (76A) from the bearing 

cover (27) and mounting bracket (108 or 108B).  

2. 

SLOWLY 

apply grease with a hand gun until grease begins 

to escape from the grease relief fitting port. 

3.  Replace the grease relief fittings (76A). 

DO NOT overgrease pump bearings. While it is normal for 
some grease to escape from the grease tell-tale hole after 
lubrication, excessive grease on pumps equipped with 
mechanical seals can cause seal failure.
