7.6.3. Oil and oil filter change
CAUTION: LUBRICANTS COMPATIBILITY
Risk of injury and damage to equipment. Avoid mixing lubricants of different
brands or types as they may not be compatible and the oil mix will have inferior
properties.
CAUTION: OIL CONTAMINATION
Risk of injury and damage to equipment. Always drain the oil at all drain points.
Used oil left in the pump can contaminate the oil system and can shorten the
lifetime of the new oil.
If the oil is replaced, replace the oil filter (if applicable) and exhaust filter(s) too.
Oil change procedure
1. If the pump is cold, run the pump with closed suction intake for 10 minutes to
warm up the oil.
2. Stop the pump and disconnect it from the mains.
3. Remove the oil filler plug.
4. Open the oil drain valve and drain the oil completely into a container large
enough to hold all the oil and tilt the pump slightly (if possible).
5. Close the oil drain valve and fill with new oil through the filler plug up to the
middle of the oil sight glass. The oil level must not exceed the allowed
maximum level.
6. Close the oil filler plug.
7. Wipe off eventual oil spills from the pump and/or the floor.
8. Connect to mains again and verify correct rotation direction of the pump.
9. Let the pump run with closed intake for a few minutes, stop the pump and
check the oil level. Top up if necessary.
Oil filter change
1. Drain the used oil completely following above instructions.
2. Remove the oil filter.
3. Apply a thin film of oil on the gasket of the new oil filter.
4. Clean carefully the contact surface of the gasket on the tank and install the
new oil filter.
5. Fill with new oil following above mentioned instructions.
Note:
Oil filter change is not applicable to GVS 16A and GVS 25A.
Oil type change
To prevent the oil dissolving residual oil sludge (and hence blocking channels),
strictly follow the following procedure:
1. Drain the used oil completely (tilt the pump slightly if possible).
