Pump Care
- To prevent freezing use environmentally friendly or R.V. antifreeze (always use for winter storage)
- Change oil every 3-5 months or every 500 hours of operation (initial break-in oil change after first fifty hours). DO NOT change oil in the SJ & XJ series pumps.
- Flush water valves and detergent injector with plain water on a regular basis after use.
- Use line strainer, 50 mesh minimum
- Never store pump with water in it.
- Consult AR North America for chemical usage
