The motor protector trips automatically. This feature provides added protection against motor damage and
must be reset manually.
When the motor protector trips, reset by turning the switch to off. Let the pump cool then turn on again. If
the motor protector trips again, see the troubleshooting section of this manual.
Pump Maintenance
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 that the hose and power cord are
in good condition. Keep the pump exterior clean to help identify leaks. Perform a regular visual inspection
of the system (refer to
Section 2
of this manual).
Do not use this pump to pump water, chemicals, or herbicides. Dispensing any fluid other than gasoline,
diesel or kerosene fuel will damage the pump. Use of the pump with unauthorized fluids will void the
warranty.
Remove and clean the fuel strainer after every 40 hours of operation or if low flow is noticed. To do this,
follow the steps outlined below.
1.
Turn the pump off and disconnect from its power
source.
2.
Remove the four Phillips screws from the strainer
access coverplate.
3.
Remove the inlet strainer and inspect for damage or
debris.
4.
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.
Remove four screws and cover.
