Before performing any repairs, perform a water test on the pump by raising and lowering the handle a full 40 strokes. A properly performing pump will yield greater than 10 liters.
Remove the hex head bolt from the top of the access door on the pump head.
On reassembly, this bolt should be hand-tight.

The access door has a tongue that fits into the base of the pump head.
The access door makes a convenient tray to hold nuts and bolts during the disassembly.

Place the spacer collar around the pump rod below the raised chain, with the beveled side down, and the flat side facing up.

The following procedure requires two people. If you attempt to do this alone, you risk injuring yourself and damaging the pump.
Lift the pump handle until the base of the chain comes to rest on the spacer collar, and the chain is slack. Hold the handle in this position while the chain is being detached.

Using the two access holes, place an angled socket wrench on the bolt and nut attaching the chain to the pump handle.

Remove the two bolts from the handle side of the pump head.
Use one wrench on the bolt and another on the nut beneath. Hold the bolt stationary and loosen the nut.
