Routine Service
-
Using a 8mm hex wrench, unscrew the valve housing from the head and push out the urethane valve seal
-
Using a clean rag and isopropyl alcohol clean the inside and outside of the valve housing, the inside of the valve cover seal, the valve seal and the edges of the head
-
Depending upon its condition, either reinstall or replace the valve seal. Ensure that the stepped side points outwards. Screw the valve housing back into the head using the 8mm wrench. Tighten until the lip bottoms out solidly on the mating face of the head, do not over tighten
-
Unscrew the pump head from the outer cylinder
-
Using a spanner or pliers that have tips with a 2mm diameter or smaller, unscrew the vent cap from the underside of the head. Remove the check valve seal from the cavity
-
Remove the o-ring from the outside of the vent cap. If there is any dirt or residue inside the cavity, use a clean rag and isopropyl alcohol to thoroughly clean it
-
Depending on its condition, either reinstall or replace the o-ring on the outside of the vent cap. Use a small amount of grease
-
Depending upon its condition, either reinstall or replace the check valve seal. Hold the vent cap upright with the spanner or pliers and place the check valve into the vent cap
-
Without flipping the head over, screw the vent cap back into the head until it is hand tight, making sure that the check valve seal stays inside the edges of the vent cap and doesn't get pinched during tightening
- 10.Extend the handle and unscrew the handle from the inner cylinder. Push the inner cylinder out the top of the outer cylinder
-
Slide the Enviro-Lock screw off the top of the outer cylinder
- Using a pick, unseat the bushing from it’s groove in the inside of the outer cylinder
- Clean the interior of the outer cylinder with isopropyl alcohol and a lint free cloth. Finish by running the lint-free cloth through the inside
- Using isopropyl alcohol and a clean rag, clean the bushing, removing all grease and debris
- Depending on its condition, either reinstall or replace the bushing. Slightly overlap the split edges until the bushing pops into the groove of the outer cylinder. It should be able to spin freely, but not move out of the groove
- Apply a very thin layer of grease to the internal face of the bushing, just enough to coat the surface but not have excess
- Remove the piston O-Ring from the piston in order to clean and degrease both with a clean rag and isopropyl alcohol
- Reinstall or replace the piston o-ring. Apply a layer of grease to the piston o-ring and some to the inside surface of the outer cylinder
- Slide the inner cylinder back into the outer cylinder. The end of the inner cylinder that has external threads should enter the top of the outer cylinder (the side that does not have the bushing). Extend and compress the inner cylinder in and out a few times for the grease to properly coat the inside of the outer cylinder. Wipe any excess grease from the inner cylinder after the inside of the outer cylinder has been properly coated
- Remove both the inner and outer o-rings from the Enviro-Lock screw
- Using a clean rag and isopropyl alcohol, thoroughly clean any residue or debris from the inside and outside of the Enviro-Lock screw, as well as cleaning the o-rings
- Reinstall both o-rings onto the Enviro-Lock screw noting that they are different sizes. Take care to install the thicker o-ring inside. Add a dab of grease to the internal o-ring and spread around before reinstalling on the cylinder
- Slide the Enviro Lock screw back onto the outer cylinder, thread side towards the lip. Rotate/spread around the Enviro-Lock seal on the cylinder so that the contact between the inner o-ring and the cylinder is greased
- Screw the handle back on to the end of the inner cylinder until it’s hand tight
- Screw the head back on to the top of the outer cylinder until the cylinder bottoms out on the plastic and is hand tight
Valve Seal Replacement

- Apply a very thin layer of grease to the internal face of the new bushing, just enough to coat the surface but not have excess
- Slide the inner cylinder back into the outer cylinder. The end of the inner cylinder that has external threads should enter the top of the outer cylinder (the side that does not have the bushing). Extend and compress the inner cylinder in and out a few times for the grease to properly coat the inside of the outer cylinder.

- Unscrew the head from the top of the outer cylinder
- Slide the Enviro-Lock Screw up and off of the cylinder
- If just replacing the o-rings, remove both the external and internal o-rings, taking care to note that they are different sizes
- Using a clean rag and water, thoroughly clean any residue or debris from the inside and outside of the Enviro-Lock screw, and reinstall the new o-rings
- Add a dab of grease to the internal o-ring and spread around before reinstalling on the cylinder. If replacing the entire Enviro-Lock Screw it’s still necessary to grease the internal O-Ring before putting the new assembled screw on
- Slide the Enviro Lock screw back onto the outer cylinder, thread side towards the lip. Rotate/spread around the Enviro-Lock seal on the cylinder so that the contact between the inner o-ring and the cylinder is greased
7. Screw the head back on to the top of the outer cylinder until the cylinder bottoms out on the plastic and it is hand tight
Check Valve Seal Replacement- Unscrew the head from the top of the outer cylinder
- Using a spanner or pliers that have tips with a 2mm diameter or smaller, unscrew the vent cap from the underside of the head. Remove the old check valve seal from the cavity

Trimming Ends of Mounting Bracket
First, be sure that you want to break off the tabs of the mounting bracket, there’s no untrimming these tabs. Replacement pump mounts are available at wolftoothcomponents.com
Method A: Pliers
- Put the pump in the bracket, this will help you get better leverage when trying to break the ears off
- Clamp down on one ear with your wrench pliers below the break line and snap the ear off
- Repeat for the other side
- Use a utility knife or sandpaper to remove any jagged edges
Method B: Bench Vise
- Clamp one ear in the vise jaws just below the break line 2. Push the rest of the bracket to one side until the ear snaps off 3. Repeat for the other side
- Use a utility knife or sandpaper to remove any jagged edges
Method C: Wire Snippers or Trimmers
- Use your trimmers to snip the ears off along the molded break lines 2. Use a utility knife or sandpaper to remove any jagged edges
Valve Housing Seal Replacement
- No disassembling is necessary for this replacement
- Pull the valve housing seal out of its groove on the head and up and over the back of the head
- Reinstall the new seal the same way in reverse. Make sure the strap is not twisted in the groove on the head
