7. Maintenance
The pump hose and the motor are consumables and have to be maintained and changed regularly.
Pump hose: The pump hose has a lifetime of approx. 3 million rotations and after this usage, it
needs replacement. If the pump is operated continuously, the hose should be changed every 3 – 4
months. We recommend only to use an original Aqua Medic spare pump hose assembly which is
supplied complete with fittings.
Grease: Before the hose is installed it has to be greased. The pump will only operate properly if
the hose is effectively greased.
Heat: During continuous operation the motor may heat up as high as 70° C. This is normal and
has no effect on performance or the life. However, too little grease on the pump hose may cause
malfunction of the motor and overheating.
Drive wheel with rollers: The plastic drive wheel and the rollers are designed for a long life.
Nevertheless, it may become necessary to change it. The change can be done the following way:
Remove the pump hose by pushing the fittings out of the housing. The drive wheel can now be
pulled off the shaft as it is a pressed fitting.
Motor: The motor has a lifetime of > 10,000 hours. To replace the motor, remove the drive wheel
assembly. Undo the 4 screws in the backplate. Now, remove the backplate and protection plate.
Undo the power cable connection from the connector block and remove 2 screws securing the
motor to the housing. To fit the new motor reverse the above process.
Safety instructions
The pump may only be used indoors. Before undertaking any work on the pump, disconnect
the power plug from the mains!
