Description

Model 5040/5060A is a high volume, manually operated, rotary action drum pump that delivers up to 100 L/min. It is designed for 

the refuelling of both on and off road vehicles and large machinery. The simple design of the 5040/5060A allows easy servicing 

if required. The pump comes complete with delivery hose and includes a replaceable foot filter. * PLEASE NOTE: OIL GEARS 

BEFORE USE (SAE 30 oil is recommended for this purpose).

Operating instructions

1  

Oil Gears Before Use

 

Before using the 5040/5060A high volume rotary refuelling pump,  

make sure that you fill the gear cover with oil. Fill with SAE 30 oil    

 

or equivalent to the reference line through the lubrication bolt hole    

 

(as indicated on the diagram). Inspect periodically.

2  

Revolution Direction

 

The handle turns in a clockwise direction and the pump discharges    

 

one litre per one revolution of the handle.

3  

Filter

 

A filter of #60 mesh polyethylene net is supplied as standard on the   

 

pump and is located at the bottom of the suction pipe. Rotating the    

handle and therefore operating the pump may become harder if  

 

 

the filter is clogged with impurities that may have been filtered  

 

 

out of the fuel or low viscosity oil. It is recommended that you  

 

remove the filter periodically and clean it with kerosene.

4  

Cautions

 

Suitable liquids include most low viscosity liquids such as diesel,    

unleaded petrol, kerosene and low viscosity oils. Although the pump   

 

can be used to pump other liquids of high viscosity, the pump becomes  

harder to operate and doing so will shorten the life of the pump & may  

 

void the warranty. 

  Do not use this pump for any solvent or chemical transfer as these liquids will   

  dissolve the Buna N seals and gaskets, etc. (Use the 301-A, 401-A, 733 or 933  

  for solvents).

  
  Please note when pumping fuels like kerosene, petrol or diesel, these products  

  tend to “dry out” the internals of the pump causing parts “to stick” and the pump not  

  to prime and dispense. To stop this from happening and to increase the working life  

  of your pump, we recommend that you lubricate the gears of the pump by dropping  

  a few drops of oil into the pump body by taking off suction pipe (2000-42) &    

  lubricating at this opening. After undertaking lubrication of the pump in such a  

  manner, please rotate the handle a few times. 

  
  Do not pump liquids containing dirt or particles such as waste oil. Strained liquids  

  may block the filter, preventing discharge, which can damage the pump interior or  

  cause other problems.
