LUBRICATING THE PUMP’S COMPONENTS
The following illustration shows the lubrication locations for your 550A Series pump.
Linkage Apply one drop of oil (SAE 10) at each pivot point of linkage every six months.
Register Every six months, or after each 100,000 gallons delivered, clean the register with
compressed air, and wipe all accessible parts (such as figure wheels) with a clean cloth. Use a
light, non-acid type oil (SAE 10), applying one drop between each figure wheel. Never use
solvents such as gasoline or kerosene, as they can become trapped in many of the inaccessible
bearings and dissolve the new lubricant when applied.
Motor Every three months, the oil the motor with 3 drops of high grade light oil (SAE 10). Avoid
over-lubrication; more motors are damaged by too much, rather than too little, oil.
Rotary Pump & Air Separator Assembly Once every six months, lubricate the felt with 1 oz. of
high grade light oil (SAE 10).
Meter Do not disassemble the meter for lubrication.
Gear Train Do not lubricate the gear train. It is permanently lubricated at the time of
manufacture.
