During maintenance, the following should be done:
a) Check the watertightness of connections by checking pipework to
and from the lifting station
b) Activate the gate valves, check their smooth function and their
watertightness ( grease if necessary)
c) Open and clean up the non return-valve system, check it is func-
tioning correctly
d) Clean up the pumping system and its connections, check the im-
peller and the cutting system (for macerating pumps)
e) Clean up the inside of the collecting tank
