Also the instructions talk about pumping, but it looks just like it screws on ... Am I missing something?

You screw the pump in tight....then turn handle opposite direction to unlock. Then push handle up and down.

You release pump handle by turning counterclockwise. You may have to hold screw on cap while doing this. Then you can pump pressure into tank.

That may be where the capacitor is housed. One of the pumps I purchased earlier seemed not to fit because of this housing. I just removed the screws on the housing and moved it to the side when I used the locking collar to hold the pump in place. I then put it back in place and replaced the screws. This was inconvenient but not too bad and I only had to do it once. I know this does not answer your question exactly but it may help.

I agree. It's been a while since I used mine but I was thinking it was hard to pump making the setting of an exact pressure rather difficult.

Put it on the valve while the lever is in the down position. Pulling it up is what locks in place. Took me a minute to figure that out as it's opposite to every other pump out there.

My old unit, which I have had for over 7 years, you had to pump it up then twist to secure it. The new pump is great. All you have to do is pump it up and no twist is needed. Just put it gently on floor next to you then when ready to release just push little release button to release. Hope this is helpful.

You will need to dissemble the whole pump. On my case, the pump was working, however the bottom piece of this item was not rotating... We change this item and the pump was working fine.

You may have to twist the pump either to the right or to the left in order for the pump to pop-up to the top. That really should do the trick.

Remove the back plastic cover on the back of the motor. There are 4 screws that run the length of the motor and hold the plastic pump housing in position. Loosen these 4 screws and pull them out of the pump housing but not all the way out of the motor. Rotate the pump housing 90 degrees counterclockwise to the horizontal position. Put the screws back in the pump housing and tighten. Loosen the compression ring that holds the pump basket in position and rotate the pump basket 90 degrees clockwise.I believe this is what you were asking. This is what I did with my pump when I installed it.Good luck Remove the back plastic cover on the back of the motor.

It's a manual pump (10 pumps max). That big oval hole in the stock makes a great place to grab when pumping. Better leverage = easier to pump.

I don't have an answer for you on that one. I didn't try what you did. The pump worked fine, we are using it as a spare.

Mine was a little tricky too but I just unscrewed the whole top and when I put it back I tried twisting the pump around again and it popped up and started working! I really didn't do anything special though.

Did you unscrew the spout - counterclockwise. You may have to really hold the lid part while you do it. Then fill and pump.

The picture is actually upside down. The picture shows the mounting feet on the top while when installed in the machine the feet point down and are attached to the base of the washer. Another interesting aspect of the picture of a pump is that they managed to hide the attachment points of the two hoses. The inlet hose attaches to the back of the trap chamber on the left foreground of the picture. The trap keeps change and other debris from entering the pump. The pump itself is in the middle of the picture. The outlet extends at a 45 angle and cannot be seen becaust it is directly on the other side of the pump. The tan cap covers the motor and is normally on the right. Other than showing the pump rotated 180, the pump is in the correct orientation in the machine. You can open and empty the trap from the front without removing the pump. Removing the pump is tricky as you have to depress the black rubber padding on the feet in just the right way in order to remove the pump. Search YouTube for videos on how to do this. Be prepared for water! Since the pump is located at the bottom of the machine it cannot pump out all the water. Using a wet-vac to suck water out of the exaust tube gets rid of most of it.

It's been a while since I installed that but I seem to recall that it came with new "filling" for the dryer, basically you dump the old stuff out and refill it with the supplied stuff, it's kinda like silica gel. I think it's all in the instructions it wasn't too hard, you also have to cut the plug off the factory pump and splice it to the new again the instructions for this were pretty good. If you haven't already the air shocks should be replaced too usually they leak which causes the pump to go out from over-working

My impression is that it is a universal type pump part. I have an Ashfield style pump and ordered this and it works fine. My first one just never pumped at all!

There is a little O ring that has to be in place but if it is and you do whhat the others have suggested (1/2 full, pump with the top piece 20 -30 times - then spray) you should be fine. Mine works great.

Hi Pat,If you unscrew the nut on the head of the pump and remove it a rubber bush will be exposed which should also be removed together with the plastic valve behind the bush. Turn both the valve and the bush 180 degrees around and re-insert the valve followed by the bush so that the bush has the smaller diameter hole facing outwards to fit onto your smaller Presta valve. Then re-screw on the silver nut, with the dustcap attached, back onto the pump. The pump should now be able to inflate your Presta Valves.If you still are having a problem, have a look on YouTube as there are quite a few video clips on there that show this being done. The one I looked at was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glGYzmVT62A" Hi Pat,If you unscrew the nut on the head of the pump and remove it a rubber bush will be exposed which should also be removed together with the plastic valve behind the bush.
