MAINTENANCE
For any problems requiring the dismantling and overhaul of the pump,
contact your CLARKE International Service Department on 020-8988-7400.
THE FILTER
The separate inlet filter (Part number 7175100)
supplied with these pumps will need regular
cleaning out after use. Unscrew the filter bowl from
the top section as in Fig 5 and wash out the bowl
and filter element with clean, soapy water.
CLEANING
The only other maintenance required is a regular
inspection to ensure that nothing is blocking the
passage of water through the pump.
If you suspect the pump is blocked by mud, silt,
leaves etc, disconnect it from the mains power
supply and backflush to clear any blockage.
Always keep the pump in a clean
condition, checking regularly for
loose bolts or a damaged power
cable etc.
If the pump has been used under
arduous conditions leading to
internal fouling or damage, the end
cover can be removed by undoing
the four socket-headed cover bolts
shown in Fig 6. The impeller can
then be inspected for damage.
STORAGE
Store in a clean, dry environment
protected from the weather.
