A floor pump is sensitive to dirt, water and dust, for example. Maintenance on a road bike or mountain bike is in our system as cycling enthusiasts, but properly maintaining the bike pump is equally important. The moving parts should remain smooth, in addition, drying out of the plastic parts in a floor pump is not desirable. Depending on usage, it is recommended that once in a while the pump be properly checked and overhauled where necessary.
For greasing the Lezyne floor pumps, you can use any kind of thick petroleum. PLEASE DO NOT USE LIQUID OILS! Make sure that the parts of the bicycle pump are not insgemed too thickly, covering the surface with a thin layer is sufficient. After all, the O-ring is not supposed to get stuck on the pump piston. Also remember not to get grease into the check valve at the bottom of the vessel. This can cause the pump to leak through the vessel.
