CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL

This durable pump includes stainless steel components. If you notice corrosion beginning on any stainless steel surface, you may need to change the cleansing agent, sanitizing agent, or cleaning procedures you are using.

• A mildly abrasive nylon or brass brush may be used to remove any stubborn deposits.
• Fully rinsing and drying all parts can help prevent corrosion. Elements and minerals in tap water can accumulate on stainless steel parts and create corrosion.
• Do not use abrasive, caustic, or ammonia-based cleansers.
• Do not use products containing acids, alkalines, chlorine, or salt. These agents can corrode stainless steel.
• Do not use metal scrapers or cleaning pads that could scratch surfaces.

2. REMOVE THE CYLINDER & DISCHARGE THE TUBE
   Twist each counterclockwise to release from slots in the valve body.

3. REMOVE O-RINGS & ORIFICE PLUG
   From the valve body and bottom of the discharge tube. Do not use a sharp tool .

4. DISASSEMBLE PLUNGER:

   • REMOVE KNOB
     Prevent the knob from springing off: Press the head tube towards the piston base while twisting the knob off.

   • REMOVE LOCKING COLLAR

   • REMOVE GAGING COLLAR(S)
     (if used).

   • REMOVE HEAD INSERT
