Emergency operation - Liquid system
In case of power failure it is possible to operate all functions of the operating unit manually. First disconnect the multi plug
from the control box. Now manually turn the emergency control knobs.
The problem may be due to a blown fuse. A fuse is placed inside the box. Fuse type: Thermo
PROBABLE CAUSE
Damaged diaphragm.
Grease used has too low viscosity.
Grease used has too low viscosity.
Bearings worn/too high friction.
Pump valves are clogged or defective.
Clogged filters in fluid system.
Pump valves are clogged or defective.
Air is being sucked into system.
Internal wear on connecting rod and ring.
Pump valves are clogged or defective
Too high vacuum caused by clogged suction filter or
excessive pump speed (r.p.m.).
Lack of internal cleaning.
Lack of conservation of the fluid system during
storage.
Over speeding of the pump
PROBABLE CAUSE
Back pressure in return line exceeds 220 psi (15 bar). Connect the return line with a free flow to hydraulic oil
Bypass valve does not close properly.
Internal leaks in flow regulator.
Clogged restrictor.

Change to recommended grease type.
Change to recommended grease type.
Replace pump bearings and grease seals.
Check for obstructions or, if needed, replace valves.
Clean all filters.
Check for obstructions or, if needed, replace valves.
Check for leaks, pinholes in suction hoses, tightness/
gaskets/O-rings of all fittings on the suction side.
Poor greasing. Replace parts as needed and observe

speed (r.p.m.).
Use recommended cleaning procedures and add
extra cleaning agents (e.g. AllClearExtra or similar).
Always use a proper mixture of anti-freeze during
storage.
Observe maximum pump speed (r.p.m.).
CONTROL/REMEDY
reservoir.
Divide return line in two and lead return oil back to
reservoir via two spool valves.
Check / close (screw in) by-pass valve.
Replace flow regulator O-rings and backup rings.
Replace flow regulator.
Dismantle and clean restrictor.
