Operation/Restart After Running Out Of Fuel
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
• The green power light on the control panel should illuminate.
• Remove the cap from the Schrader air valve and press and release the
“AIR PURGE” switch on control panel. The yellow “AIR PURGE”
lamp will illuminate. Depress and hold the Schrader air valve open to
release the excess air from the system. The electronics will maintain
the pump operation for 50-60 seconds. Recycle the pump and when the
fuel is observed from the Schrader valve release (so the fuel no longer
leaks from it).
• The internal pump will continue to run, pressurizing the fuel system
while forcing fuel through the fuel lines.
• It may require recycling the “AIR PURGE” about 6 times before pulling
enough fuel from the tank to filter.
NOTE: The engine may run rough for a few minutes while the remain-
ing air, if any, is forced through the fuel system.
• If the water in fuel light is illuminated on the dash, follow the same
procedure using the H20 button on the control panel. It may be neces-
sary to change the fuel filter.
NOTE: Always carry an extra Racor element as one tank full of exces-
sively contaminated diesel fuel can plug a filter.
Servicing the Reusable Pre-Filter:
• Remove the thumb bolt, washer and top block. Remove the pre-filter
and o-rings.
• Clean the pre-filter in a solvent bath or with compressed air as neces-
sary. Remember to wear safety goggles.
