How do you remove the plastic pump from the decorative part? Is it threaded or a twist-lock?

All you have to do is grab the decorative part and pull the pump in the opposition diection, then reverse step to assemble . I actually did that with mine too

Just pull hard. We got a replacement pump. The replacement lasted 2 months then stopped working. We just broke down and bought a pump at Home Depot.

The pump body is not brass. It is of some form of hard plastic. The threading oneither side is of brass.I.Tucker

Hold the outer shaft, then rotate one of the inner shafts (clockwise I think). If you can't get it to lock, there may be dust inside the shaft preventing the lock from engaging. The premise is simple. At the end of each inner shaft there's a short threaded rod (screw) protruding on the inside. A small plastic plug threads on this rod. As the piece of plastic grips the inner walls of the slightly larger shaft, it slowly moves up the thread causing it to bind. However, if dust/dirt (especially after you get to use them) gets on the inside it prevents the plastic from catching. To resolve, you should just be able to clean. Pull the shafts apart (past the line that says STOP). As you do, you will see the threads of the screw and the plug (I think it's orange)... keep pulling until the two come apart. Wipe clean the plastic plug and try to clean the inside of the shaft it was trying to rub against. If you don't see the plastic plug it's also possible that the poles were loosened so much that the plastic plug unscrewed completely. Thread it back on, reassemble and you should be good to go.

Sorry, don't know. Changing out the pump is very easy it just pulls apart. Fits together with a little gentle force. The actual plastic pump is not designed to be disassembled. Interchanging -- at least for my model simply pulls out of the metal head and the new pump presses in place. Done. Hope this helps.

I believe it is in the round black casing (the size of a shoe polish tin) on the opposite side of the pump from the discharge hose connector.I believe identicle pumps without an auto on/off switch feature do not have the casing mentioned above. These pumps are SUBMERSIBLE and should only be disassembled by a qualified pump dude to avoid short a circuit.

We regularly clean out bits of fur and such. On the end with the output nozzle, the cap end comes off, from there the g shaped piece will pull off, you can use a pearing knife to help using a little force. From there the whie pump vane assembly can be pulled out. It's held in with a slight magnetic force, back together in reverse order of course. It's pretty easy.

If you pull the tow sections apart (they will not break) you can see a plastic piece that has a screw. When you twist the piece when it is in the other piece, the screw causes the plastic to expand and the friction locks the lower end in place. I suspect somehow the screw was extended to far and the plastic is not contacting the inside of the upper piece to allow the screw to enlarge the plastic to lock it.

There are knobs that twist out to remove it. It is pretty easy. The bracket attachments stay in place.

I guess you could remove the clamp using a spanner. What do you mean by thread on?

It's not a twist lock but these plugs are normally hard to pull out. The one I have takes some effort to pull out.

It isnt. That's what I have as well and it was too large. I prefer the pump without the insert anyway. good luck!

Press to snap-open dispenser top. Not a pump, dropper or screw off top. Hope this helps.

Slightly bend the tubing and you should be able to pull it out of the slot. Tubing is green in the picture.

It has threads on both the sides. I faced this dilemma too.The valve or face of the valve needs to be removed and turned the other way to have it fit into other valves.It is slightly tight to loosen it but it should not be an issue.

You put the tub wrench on, and give it a sharp whack with a hammer. The inertia of the tub keeps it from turning. David Seaquist says that the nut turns clockwise to loosen. I believe this is not correct. The tub is splined to the shaft. I believe it is a normal right-hand thread. There are videos on YouTube that show how to remove this nut.

you have to turn off the pump first--start turning the lid 1/2 turn then push in tab (button) on side of lid--then turn another 1/2 turn to the next tab (button) to fully remove-----hope this helps---think of opening a medicine bottle cap

On mine, the threaded part is brass. The plastic is is there to offer a better grip.
