Accepted Answer

Oil dripping may be caused by a worn oil seal. To remedy this, check and replace the oil seal if necessary.

Question 8

Why isn't my pump reaching the required pressure?

Accepted Answer

The pump may fail to reach the required pressure due to various reasons, including worn valve seats, air pockets in the suction hose, incorrect nozzle size, or a clogged strainer. 
To address this issue, check the valves, hose, and nozzles, and clean the strainer as needed.

Question 9

What could be causing fluctuations in the pressure gauge?

Accepted Answer

Fluctuations in the pressure gauge may indicate that the pump is sucking air or has not been completely evacuated. 
Additionally, blocked valves could contribute to this issue. 
To resolve it, start the pump with an open gun to purge air and clean or change the valves as necessary.

Output drops and noisy pump operation may indicate that the oil level is too low. 
To address this issue, add oil to the correct level (midway in sump) during pump operation.

Question 12

Accepted Answer

Oil may be coming out of the discharge pipe due to one or more broken diaphragms.

Question 13

Why is the oil changing color to white?

Accepted Answer

The oil may be changing color to white due to diaphragm failure. It's essential to stop the pump immediately. 
To resolve this issue, drain the pump oil, dismantle the head, replace the diaphragms, and refill to the correct level.

If the valve seats are worn.
If the piston packing is worn.

To address these issues:
