Servicing Strainer

A clogged strainer restricts the flow of fuel. At a pressure drop of 12” HG, the pump will automatically shut off and activate 
the red indicator light and display “HIGH VACUUM”. The signal indicates that it is time to clean the strainer.

Servicing the Strainer:

1. 

Close the inlet and outlet ball valve (not provided)

2.  Place an appropriate fuel waste container below the strainer
3. 

Remove clear bowl of strainer and dispose sediment, particulate, and water

4.  Clean strainer screen and reinstall
5.  Check gasket and reinstall bowl of strainer
6.  Prime system if necessary
7.  Open the inlet and outlet ball valve
8. 

Push the “ALARM RESET” button on the control panel to acknowledge the alarm and reset it

9. 

Check for leaks when re-starting and pressurizing the system. Your system is now ready to resume normal operation

Servicing Fine Filter

Clogging filter elements and saturation of the water block filters restrict the flow of fuel and the system’s pressure gauge will 
indicate a pressure drop. The gauge is mounted on top of the secondary filter. At a pressure drop of 15 PSI (red dial area 
of the gauge), the pump will automatically shut off and activate the “HIGH PRESSURE” alarm indicator light. The signal 
indicates that it is time to change the filter element.

Changing the fine filter:

10. 

Close the inlet and outlet ball valve (not provided)

11. 

Place an appropriate fuel waste container underneath the filter

12. 

Remove and filter cartridge by turning counter clock wise seen from the bottom of the bowl/cartridge (Please use 
provided filter wrench to remove bowl)

13. 

Apply a film of lubricating oil to the new gasket of the new filter cartridge. Screw the new cartridge filter to the filter head 

until the gasket is tight and secure – do not over tighten

14.  Open the inlet and outlet ball valve
15. 

Push the “ALARM RESET” button on the control panel to acknowledge the alarm and reset it

16.  Check for leaks when re-starting and pressurizing the system
17. 

Your system is now ready to resume normal operation

Note: Disposal of fuel, associated waste, and filters must be in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local rules, 

laws, standards, and regulations.

!WARNING! Some fuels may have been treated with biocides. Biocides are extremely toxic and may enter 
the body through the skin. It is recommended to use adequate protection and proper precautions if fuel 
contains biocide type products.
