Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids.

Radial movement of the pump drive shaft can allow the shaft to contact the ceramic seals in the water pump. This can damage the ceramic seals. Damage to the seals will cause leaks and failure of the pump. Do not cause radial movement of the pump drive shaft. |
Use the following guidelines for handling the water pump:
- Do not cause radial movement of the pump drive shaft. Never use any tooling that will cause radial movement of the shaft.
- Never place the water pump on a surface so the shaft rests on the surface.
- Never handle the water pump by the shaft.
