Fastening to Truck/Apparatus  

When adding any equipment to a vehicle, follow all instructions and heed all warnings 
provided by manufacturers of the apparatus and any third-party accessories. 

WATERAX

 

provides certain accessories used in vehicle-mount configurations of the STRIKER-2/3 
series pumps. Follow all documentation that ships with any accessories you have ordered 
such as vibration mounts or rails. Your company’s internal policies and guidelines must 
also be followed. 
Before installing the pump in a vehicle, plan for adequate access to any fill caps such as 
those for oil and fuel, as well as any other part of the pump or engine that is frequently 
accessed or inspected (valves, panels, primers, filters, etc.). Make note of components 
that become hot when operating such as mufflers and engine blocks, and always ensure 
a safe clearance around them.  
 

Installing a Control Panel  

See User Instructions shipped with the specific model of control panel you ordered for 
your pump. 
 

Using a Battery for Electric Starters and Control Panels 

Some STRIKER-2/3 pumps require a battery to power electrical and electronic 
components such as; starters, pump primers and control panels. Make sure to follow all 
instructions and heed all warnings provided by your battery manufacturer. Refer to the 
engine manual for battery requirements. Always follow safety guidelines set out by your 
company. Never connect or disconnect a battery to a pump that is operating.
