which pump is it, mine was a 1200, had a white impellar, i think all the italian ones are black

if it's a cobalt maxijet you need to be mad at china

its a 400.

"Call them and tell them what happened, and then ask them to check if they have a 'made in italy' replacement in stock"

im gonna replace the whole pump, when the impeller broke the blades jammed it up not lettin it spin so it might have damaged the motor

MOPS has 400 & 600 Italian made in stock, I believe that once the stock is gone they are gone.

thanks, im gonna be replacing the pump on monday for a new one and order a better impeller.

this sucks though, just got the reactor yesterday and now i cant use it.
it like when a kid gets a toy and "batteries are not included"

espacially when the bateries are an hour away, i'm in the same boat, closest LFS is 90 minutes.

Now That's funny !

Now that's funny !

Restricted flow will not break the blades off. No chance.

Something definitely got inside.

I highly doubt that the retailer is going to cover physical damage like that.

Worth a try anyhow.

As for asking for made in Italy. Good luck. Long gone.

These are not going to run your tlf with pellets.

I tried. I run a 1200 full bore and its great. Also the old model though.

The new ones are junk.

Go get a new hydor nano pump. I have three and they are solid. Good price too. Made in Italy.
