Priming  the System

Note: The MTC System is equipped with a positive displacement vane pump. It should never be run dry and started without 
the hoses attached and/or valves in the closed position. Failure to do so may damage the bypass valve and/or pump.

Priming Procedure

Before turning on the pump make sure the entire suction side of the MTC system (suction hose, separator, plumbing, pump, 
strainer, etc …) is primed and filled with oil/diesel fuel. Running the pump dry could cause pump damage and pump to not 

operate properly.

Note: The separator/coalescer has to be full at all time to perform properly.

! IMPORTANT ! Never exceed 15” HG on vacuum gauge located before of pump.
