Loosen the upper casing port

connector securing nuts using a

13mm spanner. Locate a spanner

on the cast hexagonal nut of the

rotor. Rotate the rotor clockwise

until one pump head shoe has left

contact with the tube completely

and the tubing has been forced

out of the upper casing port.
Lever the connector out of the

tube. Slide off the compression

ring and sealing gland.

Pull the end of the tube out of the
upper casing port and remove the
support ring. Whilst still holding
the tube, rotate the rotor
anticlockwise to enable the tube to
be withdrawn from the pumphead.
When the second shoe is clear of
the tube, remove the lower casing
port connector, compression ring
and sealing gland. Remove the
tube completely from the
pumphead along with the lower
support ring.

Manual tube fitting

Isolate the motor from the

mains supply before opening

Clean the inside and faces of both

casing ports, the compression and

support rings and sealing gland.

Clean the door sealing face

ensuring that the lubricant seal is

intact.
