Break-in....yes ! Thanks ! could not remember at the time I wrote my message
This recommendation was not written in any operating manual. I read something about that on a german forum and then asked directly to Leimbach about this process.
Doing that, I have been able to operate [intensively
] a Leimbach pump at 18 bars (260 psi) for ten years before it breaks.
Using a 7.2 V battery for a while may produce the same effect.........
