TROUBLESHOOTING
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Check for leaks in suction line
Remove and inspect valve; must move freely & be free of debris
Check vanes and slots for nicks, burrs and wear
Tighten covers and joints
Check rotor & vanes for excessive wear or damage
Check pump outlet, hose, nozzle & filter for blockage
Reduce vertical and horizontal distance from pump to liquid;
Remove automatic nozzle
Clean out pump cavity
Return to place of purchase
Remove all debris & replace key
Remove and clean screen
Check suction line for leaks or restrictions; it may be too
small, too long or not airtight
