PUMP INSTALLATION (Refer to EXPLODED VIEW - Page 6)
Base Plate Version
1. Fasten the Base Plate (37) firmly near your workplace using
suitable bolts. Fix the Base Plate with pump by tightening two
Allen Bolts (31) using Allen Key (29) of size 5.
2. Cut the Combo Hose (36) into two parts to make suction &
delivery hose of convenient length.
3. Screw a Hose Barb (32) into pump inlet (3/4” female threads)
& fix it to suction hose using a Hose Clamp (35). Connect the
Strainer (33) to other end of suction hose using another Hose
Clamp (35).
4. Fix Hose Barbs (32) at both ends of the delivery hose. Screw
one end of the hose into female threads on pump outlet & tighten
with a Hose Clamp (35).
5. Screw the Fuel Control Nozzle (28) onto free end of delivery hose
& tighten with a Hose Clamp (35).
1. Make sure the Rocker Switch (25) is in “OFF” position.
2. The Battery Cable (26) is secured to the side of Switch Cover (23) with a threaded Plastic Gland (27). Connect the red wire to the positive
(+) battery terminal and the black wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
Caution
•
Always use a thread sealant such as PTFE Tape on all the fluid joints to make them leak-proof
•
Do not overtighten connections
Drum Mount Version
1. Assemble both sections of the 2 piece Suction Tube (38). Slide
the Bung Adaptor (40) onto the top section of Suction Tube (38)
2. Screw the Suction Tube (38) firmly into pump inlet. Lift the
pump and insert Suction Tube (38) through the bung opening on
the drum. Screw the Bung Adaptor (40) onto the drum to lock
the pump firmly into position.
3. Screw the male threads of Elbow Fitting (41) to pump outlet. Fix
Hose Barbs (32) at both ends of the Hose (42). Screw one end
of the Hose into female threads on Elbow Fitting (41) & tighten
with a Hose Clamp (35).
4. Screw the Fuel Control Nozzle (28) onto free end of Hose (42) &
tighten with a Hose Clamp (35).
5. Remove two Allen Bolts (1) from Cover Plate (2) using Allen Key
(30). Align the Nozzle Holder (39) with Cover Plate & re-tighten
the two Allen Bolts.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Caution
•
NEVER use a power source while it is still connected to another circuit (e.g car battery). Disconnect it before using for the pump
•
The available power source must have the same voltage as the pump voltage (either 12 volt or 24 volt DC, depending on model)
•
Battery Cable (26) is supplied with 15 Amp Fuse. It can be replaced when needed but only with a fuse of same amperage
1. After making the electrical connections, switch ON the pump motor using Rocker Switch (25) located on the side of pump base.
2. Ensure that the open end of suction hose / tube is properly dipped in fuel.
3. Insert the Fuel Control Nozzle (28) into the fuel tank and squeeze the nozzle lever to dispense fuel. A manual nozzle needs manual opening
& closing but an automatic nozzle has a sensor built into the discharge spout outlet that automatically shuts off supply once fuel level in
the delivery tank reaches that of the spout outlet.
4. The pump will now prime. When discharge is not needed, switch OFF the motor & disconnect Battery Cable (26) from the power supply.
PUMP OPERATION
Caution
•
The suction height (from the pump to the lowest fuel level) should not be greater than 1 metre
•
The tank must be vented or the pump may not prime, or it may lose its prime due to a vacuum in the tank
•
A filter should be intalled at the suction line to ensure a clean supply of fluid to the pump
•
Do not run pump for more than 5 minutes with nozzle closed. Do not run pump for more than 30 minutes continuously in 1 hour
•
Do not use a Curb Pump Auto Nozzle with this pump. Use of a Curb Pump Auto Nozzle may cause priming problems, reduced
output flow, and motor overheating
