    • Use channel locks or pliers to grip the silver cap and turn it counter-clockwise until it is loose.

    • Continue turning the silver cap counter-clockwise by hand until it fully unthreads.

    • Pull the pump plunger out of the pump body.

    • Use your finger to remove the bump-stop O-ring from below the pump's outlet cap threads.

    • Place a new bump stop O-ring into the pump.

    • The O-ring can be inserted into the other side of the pump body. As long as it is straight, the pump plunger will push it down to it's proper place.

    • Be sure the O-ring is not in any of the pump body's threads or it may become damaged during re-assembly.

    • Replace the two O-rings on the pump plunger using the same method as the previous O-rings.

    • Replace the outlet cap O-ring using the same method as the previous O-rings.

    • Re-assemble the pump by using these instructions in reverse.

    • Remember to not allow the thin bump stop O-rings to get caught in the threads of the pump body.

    • It is a good idea to apply a small amount of Loctite to the outlet cap during re-assembly to prevent the cap from vibrating loose.
