Motor screws trouble
by: Tim

I didn't think to check the net before trying to take apart my aquabot. I unscrewed those four screws and the oil leaked out. Not to much of a biggie but now when I try to put the motor back together the threads are worn out on the motor plate. Does anyone know what I should do to save it and me from buying a new motor? Thanks.

Same as Drive Motor?
by: Anonymous

Thanks! I read on this site that the Drive motor takes 30 wt non-detergent motor oil, mineral oil, or compressor oil, but I was not sure if was the same for the pump motor. Thanks again.

Aquabot Pump Oil
by: Anonymous

Takes about 3/4 cup of either 30 weight NON-detergent motor oil, compressor oil or mineral oil.

Careful opening the casing, it is sealed by a gasket at both ends. The pump housing is actually three pieces. take the top off in a bucket or over a bowl just in case the entire case slides off the motor.

I did it too!
by: John

I did the same thing. I removed those screws and the oil leaked out. I lost some of it. Can anyone tell me what type of oil goes in the pump motor, and how much is supposed to be in there? Thanks
