14. TROUBLESHOOTING ZERO OR INSUFFICIENT FLOW PRELIMINARY CHECKS Make sure that the plastic plugs have been taken away from the ports of the pump and that the pump is running (defective drive, damaged motor, etc., faulty transmission : broken coupling, sliding belt, worn or poorly coupled clutch, etc.).

14. TROUBLESHOOTING (continued) ABNORMAL HEATING OF BEARINGS This heating can be caused by : - excessive tension in the transmission (belt or chain) on the pump shaft. - excessive pulling on the pump flanges by the piping (in this case, it must have been necessary to force the piping into position to connect it to the pump).
