HIGH PRESSURE PUMP REPAIR INSTRUCTION 

SERIES EP-12-34 / EP-14-34 / EP-17-34 

 

Disassembly sequence of the front end of the ECH

2

O Tec. high-pressure pump. 

Refer to the pump diagram. 

 

1) 

Remove the three discharge valve plugs and the three inlet valve plugs (32), with a 22 mm socket 

wrench.  Inspect the O-ring (33) for wear and replace if damaged. 

 
2) 

With  needle  nose  pliers,  remove  the  inlet  and  discharge  valve  assemblies  (32X).    Insert  a  small 

screwdriver  between  the  valve  seat  (27)  and  the  valve  spring  retainer  (30)  to  separate  the  valve 
assembly.  Remove the O-ring (31).  Inspect all parts for wear and replace if necessary. 

 
3) 

Next, use a 5 mm Allen wrench to remove the 8 socket head cap screws (34).  Carefully slide the 

valve casing (26) out over the plungers.  Remove the weep return ring (25), pressure ring (24) and 
V-sleeve with support ring (23), from the valve casing (26). Remove the V-sleeve (23) from the seal 
case (20).  Inspect all parts, including O-ring (21) for wear and replace if necessary. 

 
4) 

Check  surfaces  of  plunger  (16).    A  damaged  surface  will  cause  accelerated  wear  on  the  seals.  

Deposits of any kind must be carefully removed from the plunger surface.  

 

A damaged plunger must be replaced! 

 
5) 

If the ceramic plunger (16B) is damaged, remove the plunger bolt (16C).  Discard the old plunger 

(16B) and copper gasket (16D) and clean the old Locktite from the plunger bolt (16C) and plunger 
base (16A).  Replace the plunger with the new one and Locktite the plunger bolt and torque to 120 
inch-pounds. 

 

NOTE: If there are deposits of any kind (i.e., lime deposits) in the valve casing, be certain that the 
weep holes in the weep return ring and valve casing have not been plugged. 
 

6) 

If the crankcase oil seals (19) are to be replaced, they can be removed by prying loose.  Take care 

not to make contact with the plunger.  If the oil seals are not to be replaced, proceed to the back end 
disassembly sequence and carefully pry the seals loose after the plungers have been removed from 
the crankcase.  

 

Disassembly sequence of the back end of the ECHO Tec. high-pressure pump. 
 

1) 

Before beginning, drain the oil from the crankcase, through the oil drain (3A). 

 
2) 

Remove the crankcase cover (3) and O-ring (4) from the crankcase (1).  To remove the crankshaft 

(13), remove the bearing cover (7) and sight glass (8).  Using a rubber mallet, remove the crankshaft 
axially through the connecting rods by tapping on the end of the shaft.  Do not bend or damage the 
connecting rods during crankshaft removal. 

 
3) 

Next remove the remaining bearing and radial shaft seal (11).  Inspect both bearings and seal for 

wear and replace if necessary. 

4) 

Remove the connecting rod (15), then the plunger (16) and wrist pin (17), if necessary.  Check the 

plunger bore in the crankcase for wear.  Inspect parts and replace as necessary.
