CLEAN-UP To help remove potentially dangerous chemicals, the pump can be flushed with DI water or disassembled and thoroughly cleaned. DISASSEMBLY During the life of the pump it will be necessary to perform certain preventative maintenance procedures to ensure its continued high performance. This section and the next (4.8 Assembly) are provided for the user’s convenience in disassembly and re-assembly in performing these procedures.
