What to do if BUSCH RA 0100 F does not reach the usual pressure?
- D
  David GutierrezAug 5, 2025
  If your BUSCH Water Pump isn't reaching its usual suction pressure, it could be due to several reasons. First, check the oil level and top it up if it's low. A partially clogged inlet screen could also be the culprit, so clean it. If your pump has an optional inlet filter cartridge, try replacing it. If these steps don't resolve the issue, internal parts may be worn or damaged, in which case you should contact Busch for repair.

  If your BUSCH Water Pump is running too hot, several factors could be responsible. Start by removing any dust and dirt from the machine to ensure sufficient cooling. Make sure that the ambient temperature is within the permitted range. Also, check the oil level and top it up if necessary. Finally, if the exhaust filters are partially clogged, replace them.

How to troubleshoot a BUSCH RA 0100 F that does not start?
- D
  davidhannaAug 14, 2025
  If your BUSCH Water Pump is not starting, there are a few potential causes. Ensure that the motor is receiving the correct voltage by checking the power supply. If the power supply is adequate, the motor itself may be defective and require replacement. Another possibility is a defective coupling, which would also need to be replaced.

Why is my BUSCH RA 0100 F fuming or expelling oil?
- D
  david96Aug 18, 2025
  If your BUSCH Water Pump is fuming or expelling oil droplets through the gas discharge, the exhaust filters may be partially clogged and need replacement. Also, ensure that the exhaust filter with o-ring is fitted properly. Check the float valve and the oil pipe for any clogging and remove it. If you have a version with an oil return valve and the machine runs for more than 10 hours without interruption, regularly shut down the machine for short periods of time.

What causes a BUSCH RA 0100 F Water Pump to run very noisily?
- C
  Caitlin CaldwellAug 22, 2025
  If your BUSCH Water Pump is running very noisily, it could be due to a worn coupling, which would need to be replaced. Alternatively, the vanes could be stuck, or the bearings could be defective. In either of the last two cases, contact Busch to repair the machine.

Why the oil in my BUSCH Water Pump is black?
- D
  Donna PhillipsAug 27, 2025
  If the oil in your BUSCH Water Pump is black, it could be due to oil change intervals being too long. In this case, contact Busch to flush the machine. Another possibility is a defective inlet filter, which should be replaced. Also, the machine might be running too hot.

What to do if the oil in my BUSCH RA 0100 F is emulsified?
- P
  pmeltonAug 31, 2025
  If the oil in your BUSCH Water Pump is emulsified, it might be because the machine sucked in liquids or significant amounts of vapour, in this case, contact Busch to flush the machine. You should also clean the filter of the gas ballast valve. Consider modifying the operational mode.
