diaphragm rupture, we recommend you drain the pump crankcase of the mixed oil and
pumped liquid and then ll it with oil or diesel to prevent the formation of rust.
• The following are frequently the causes of diaphragm rupture:
- bottlenecks in the intake circuit (inadequate hose section, very dirty lter, very dense
liquid being pumped, etc)
- the use of very aggressive chemicals
