10.0 Service Procedures
FMC pumps are designed to simplify all required maintenance. The following sections
illustrate step-by-step instructions for performing most common service procedures of a
pump. Read each section before starting service work on the pump.
Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 for locations of components.
Many accidents occur every year through careless use or service of
mechanical equipment. You can avoid hazards associated with high-
pressure equipment by always following the safety precautions listed in
Section 1.0.
10.1 Replacing Cup Pistons
FMC W11 pumps are available with two different types
of piston cups, pictured to the right. See Service Tips
for installing Type B piston cups after Step 8 below.
To service the piston cups (38), approximately 2 feet of clearance is
required between the front of the pump fluid cylinder (34) and any
obstructions. If there is insufficient clearance, the pump must be
removed and relocated to an area where adequate clearance exists.
ENSURE THAT THE POWER IS LOCKED OUT AND TAGGED OUT
