To reduce chemical contamination within
the water it needs a contact time with
the activated carbon. With a carbon
filter tap fitted the flow of water will slow

jerrycan’s pump
has been designed for high
workloads. The o-ring inside the
pump is designed to glide easily
up and down the tube. A small
amount of silicone grease should
be added to the o-ring of the pump
plunger from time to time.
To maintain the pump follow these
instructions:
• Unscrew the pump.
• With both thumbs push the threaded
cap upwards away from the pump
tube.

around the o-ring at the end of the
pump piston.

guide pins into the holes in the pump
cap.
