4. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Regular preventive maintenance assures continued dependable operation. This section provides
recommended actions to be completed for both the booster pump and the ancillary equipment.
The pump preventive maintenance actions listed are scheduled to be completed after each use
and on a weekly, quarterly and annually basis.
4.1. Preventive Maintenance Plan And Schedule
Hale Products recommends the preventive maintenance and inspections listed in Table 7 be per-
formed as scheduled. The booster pump requires very little care and maintenance, however, the
preventive maintenance and inspections required are important. The booster pumps do NOT re-
quire any daily, weekly, or monthly preventive maintenance. The listed preventive maintenance,
inspections and checks are required to ensure proper and economical operation and to minimize
corrective maintenance. Table 7 lists the projected preventive maintenance on a per use, quar-
terly, annual, and triennium basis.
