SKF P203 - Lubricant Volume When an Empty Pump Is Filled for the First Time

31
4.10 Lubricant volume when an empty pump is filled for the first time
The following volumes of lubricant are required in order to fill a new empty pump up to the -MAX- mark on the reservoir.
NOTE
The difference between the lubricant volume required for initial filling and the nominal volume of the reservoir is due to
the filling of the space in the pump housing up to the
-MIN- mark on the reservoir.
