1. CUSTOMER REPORTED THE FOAM PUMP WAS LEAKING. INSPECT THE TRUCK
AND CONFIRM THE LEAK IS COMING FROM THE SHAFT SEAL. CUSTOMER BROUGHT
AN EMPTY TOTE AND WE PUMPED THE FOAM OFF OF THE TRUCK. DISCONNECT
ALL HYDRAULIC LINES FROM THE HYDRAULIC DRIVE AND PUMP AND THEN REMOVE
IT FROM THE TRUCK. GET INFO FROM THE ORIGINAL PUMP TO CHECK PART
AVAILABILITY. BASED UPON PAST REPAIRS CONTACTED LOCAL HYDRAULIC
SHOP TO SEE ABOUT REBUILDING THE ORIGINAL FOAM PUMP. COMPANY NO
LONGER REPAIRS THESE PUMPS WHICH WOULD HAVE INCLUDED A CEAMIC COATING
ON THE SHAFT. CONTACTED OEM AND THEY NO LONGER SUPPORT THIS PUMP.
CONTACTED THE CHIEF AND NOTIFIED HIM THIS PUMP IS NO LONGER
REPAIRABLE. CONTACTED PIERCE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT
AND PARTS WERE OBTAINED. WAS ABLE TO GET THE CURRENT PRODUCTION
MODEL PUMP BUT IT REQUIRES SOME MOUNING AND HOSE LOCATION
MODIFICATIONS. INSTALLED NEW FOAM PUMP AND HYDRAULIC DRIVE MOTOR.
MODIFIED THE HOSE FITTINGS AND HAD TO REPLACE ONE HOSE DUE TO
CLEARENCE ISSUES. INSTALLED NEW MANUAL CONTROL THAT CAME WITH THE
KIT. REPLACED THE FILTER ELEMENT. TOPPED OFF THE HYDRAULIC OIL
AND OPERATED THE SYSTEM. FOLLOW START UP INSTRUCTIONS TO BLEED
AIR FROM THE SYSTEM. RAN THE FOAM SYSTEM TO DRAW THE FOAM FROM
THE TOTE BACK INTO THE TRUCK AND TESTED THE SYSTEM IN SAFE MODE.
CHECKED FOR LEAKS, HYDRAULIC OIL AND FOAM AND ALL FUNCTIONS WERE
NORMAL, NO LEAKS.
