1. Disconnect air supply from pump.
2. Remove the eight bolts (40) which attach the cover to the
reservoir.
3. Lift the entire pump, vent valve and cover assembly out of
the reservoir.
4. Unscrew the low level indicator (62) from the follower plate

8. Re-assemble in the reverse of the above procedure
making sure that the long carriage bolts are staggered with
the small ones and that they extend below the follower per
the dimension shown.

Low level indicator (see Illustration Page 6)

If the indicator pin appears to drop prematurely or water is
noticeable on top of the follower then the indicator seal (61)
may be damaged.
1. Remove the eight bolts (40) which hold the cover on to the
reservoir.
2. Inspect the reservoir seal (42) for damage. If damage is
apparent then replace the seal.
3. Remove the entire pump, vent valve and follower assembly
from the reservoir.
4. Remove the retaining ring (59) from the indicator rod
assembly (62).
5. Hold the indicator plug (64) with a wrench while removing
the indicator nut (60).
