disconnect the pump from the power
source and remove the inlet screen.

injury, use caution when removing
or inserting the impeller.
Step 4: Use a soft cloth or brush
and warm water to clean the
impeller and the inside of the
impeller and rotor housing.

parts, place the pump inside the
pump barrier bag and place in
water before reconnecting to the
power source.
