Keep in Mind
Immediately after a pressure change, the pressure may change slightly due to the
stretching/shrinking of the pressure measurement hose. Thermodynamic effects may
also cause pressure variation. In that case, adjust the pressure back to required value
using the Fine Adjust handwheel.
Do not exceed the max. operating pressure of the pump and the hose. Also observe
the pressure limit set by environmental conditions.
Ensure that there always is a reliable pressure indicator connected to the pump when
the pump is used.
If there is a strong counterforce while operating the pump lever, but no pressure
change is indicated, stop pumping and locate the fault. Always keep a reliable indi-
cator connected to the measurement system.
If the pump fails to indicate a pressure change after considerable pumping action of
the handle, check to assure that the connections between the pump, the hose end
and the attached instrument(s) are tight and retry pumping. Also check to assure that
all the unused output connectors are properly plugged.
If a pressure increase still cannot be obtained, it is possible that one or more of the
seals in the Pressure Pump is leaking and needs to be replaced.
Do not continue pumping if the functionality of the pump is not normal. Locate
the fault before you continue using the pump.
