Maintenance
This pump can be taken apart to clean it. The red base is connected with a powerful "push-click" mechanism; it cannot be pulled apart by hand. Warm up the plastic and use a tool to prise apart the two elements. Use a coin (50p) covered in tape or a 1.5mm flat head screwdriver covered in tape. Insert in the gap and gently twist to open. The red base will slide off to reveal the lower rubber valve (do not lose it as it can easily fall out of the red base) and also reveal the base of the piston. The piston is secured with a stainless 8mm nut. Unscrew the nut to pull off the piston and piston damper. The handle and 7mm stainless rod can now be removed. Once cleaned spray inside the pump with silicone spray.
