Observe precautions against electrical shock when
operating the system. Serious or fatal shock can
result from operating electrical equipment in damp
or wet locations.
WARNING
To prevent physical injury, observe precautions
against fire or explosion when dispensing fuel. Do
not operate the system in the presence of any source
of ignition including running or hot engines, lighted
cigarettes, or gas or electric heaters.
DANGER
To dispense fuel (for pumps with nozzle hanger):
1. Turn the pump on by pulling the switch lever down.
2. Insert the nozzle into the receiving tank and squeeze the
handle to dispense fuel.
3. After dispensing fuel, push the switch lever up to turn the
pump off and return the nozzle to its holder.
The pump contains an automatic bypass valve to prevent
pressure buildup when the pump is on but the nozzle is closed.
Do not leave the pump on for more than 10 minutes with the
nozzle closed.
Never leave the pump running without fluid. Dry running can
damage the pump components.
The pump has a duty cycle of 30 minutes ON and 30 minutes
OFF. Do not overheat. Allow the motor to cool the same length
of time it was in operation.
The fuel strainer and check valve assembly should be cleaned
on a regular basis or if low flow rate is noticed.
If the pump becomes too hot, an internal temperature-limiting
device will automatically shut the motor off and prevent opera-
tion until it cools.
Always turn the pump off if the temperature-limiting
device trips. If left on, the pump will automatically
reset when cool and start pumping.
This pump is designed for minimum maintenance. Motor
bearings are sealed and require no lubrication. Inspect
the pump and components regularly for fuel leaks and
make sure the hose and power cord are in good condition.
Keep the pump exterior clean to help identify leaks.
CAUTION
OPERATION
Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels.
Use protective goggles, gloves, and aprons in case
of splashing or spills. Change saturated clothing
and wash skin promptly with soap and water.
CAUTION
Do not use this pump for water, chemicals or herbicides.
Dispensing any fluid other than those listed in this manual
will damage the pump. Use of the pump with unauthorized
fluids will void the warranty.
To Clean or Replace Strainer
All pump models have an inlet strainer. If flowrate is
reduced, clean or replace strainer (see below).
MAINTENANCE
Turn the pump off and disconnect from power. Remove
and clean the strainer with a soft-bristled brush and
solvent. If the strainer is very dirty, compressed air may
be used. If damaged, replace the strainer.
Replace components making sure that they are seated
and fasteners are tightened securely.
REPAIR
Carefully inspect all parts for wear or damage. Replace
components, as necessary. The Illustrated Parts List
gives information on replacement parts and kits.
Review the Safety Instructions before proceeding.
Observe precautions against electrical shock when
servicing the pump. Always disconnect power be-
fore repairing or servicing. Never apply electrical
power to the system when any of the coverplates
are removed.
WARNING
Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels.
Use protective goggles, gloves and aprons in case
of splashing or spills. Change saturated clothing and
wash skin promptly with soap and water.
