Vane(s) stuck in the rotor slots(s). Disassemble the pump. Check for dirt or metal chips.
Clean the parts thoroughly and replace any damaged
pieces. If necessary, flush the system and refill it with
clean fluid.
Insufficient pressure build-up. System relief valve set too low. Use a pressure gage to correctly adjust the valve.
Pump making noise. Pump intake partially blocked. Service the intake strainers. Check the fluid condition
and, if necessary, drain and flush the system. Refill
with clean fluid.
Air leaks at the intake or shaft seal. Check the inlet connections and seal to determine
(Oil in reservoir would probably be foamy.) where air is being drawn in.tighten any loose
connections and replace the seal if necessary. See
that the fluid in the reservoir is above the intake pipe
opening.
Pump drive speed too slow or too fast. Operate the pump at the recommended speed.
Coupling misalignment. Check if the shaft seal bearing or other parts have
been damaged. Replace any damaged parts. Realign
the coupled shafts.

clockwise to counterclockwise,
or vice versa, by following the
steps outlined below:
