MAINTENANCE
PumP LubRICATION
Pump liquid end does not require any grease or oil for lubrication. The mechanical seal is lubricated by water when the pump is operating.
Depth to Water
SYMPTOM
No water delivered
Not enough water delivered
Not enough pressure
Engine heats excessively
Abnormal noise and/or vibration
Pump works for a while, then stops
CAUSE
1. ENGINE
A.
Speed too low
B.
Rotating and/or reciprocating parts drag
C.
Speed too high
D.
Loose or broken parts
2. PUMP
E.
Not primed
F.
Pump takes too long to prime
G.
Flow through pump completely
H.
Internal leakage
I.
Rotating parts drag
J.
Loose or broken parts
3. SYSTEM
K.
Pressure required by system at design flow rate
exceeds pressure rating of pump
L.
Obstruction in suction piping
M.
Suction lift too high
N.
Discharge head too low
O.
Suction inlet not immersed deep enough
P.
Leaky suction line or connection admitting air

CORRECTIVE ACTION
Refer to engine section
Refer to engine section
Maximum engine speed not to exceed engine manufacturer's rec-
ommendation
Refer to engine section
Re-prime, inspect suction system for air leaks, and or clack assem-
bly
Check for air leaks or defective check valve
Locate and remove obstruction. Attach strainer or partially blocked
Check clearances between face of vanes and case. Should not
exceed 1/32"
Inspect, repair
Inspect, repair
Compare pump pressure and flow rate against pump performance
chart. Reduce system pressure requirement. Increase pressure
capability of pump
Locate and remove obstruction. Attach strainer
Check with gauge or measure vertical distance between water
surface and center line of pump, allowing for friction loss in suction
pipe. Reduce rate of flow to obtain desired lift. Refer to pump per-
formance chart
Decrease rate of flow
Refer to "Installation"
Repair or replace suction line. Tighten connections
