➨ Remove the union nuts of the hose connections at the
pump head using an open-ended wrench w/f 15.
➨ Use an open-ended wrench w/f 17 to loosen the fittings at
the pump head.
➨ Turn the hose connections of the fittings with an open-end-
ed wrench w/f 20 to detach the hoses.
☞ Pull off the one bent connecting hose at the outlet side
of the pump (only MD 12 / MV 10) directly at the pump
head.
➨ To check the valves and the diaphragms use a hex key to
remove four socket-head screws from the pump head and
remove housing cover with head cover, valves and O-rings
(only MD 8 / MD 12 / MV 10).
☞ In case, place the pump on edge (onto the distributor at
the inlet or at the outlet). Support pump appropriately.
Maintain only one side of the pump at a time.
☞ Never remove parts by using a spiky or sharp-edged tool
(e.g. screw driver), we recommend to use a rubber mallet
or compressed air (to be blown carefully into port).
➨ Remove head cover carefully from housing cover. Note
the position of the valves and remove them.
☞ Replace valves and/or O-rings if damaged.
☞ Check diaphragm for damage and replace if necessary.
☞ Use petroleum ether or industrial solvent to remove de-
posits. Do not inhale.
