6 MAINTENANCE
6.1 Preventive Maintenance
The safety precautions described in Section 2.2 apply to the following preventive maintenance
procedures. A correctly installed dispenser, given proper preventive maintenance attention, will
seldom require emergency service. Perform the following checks on a regular basis:

Check the dispenser for internal and external leaks regularly. Check nozzles, swivels,
hoses, filters, and joints for leaks and wear. Have all defects repaired immediately.

Do not abuse the hose by trying to stretch it to reach a vehicle. This will cause early failure
at the couplings.

Keep the dispenser clean at all times. See Section 6.3 for cleaning/polishing instructions and
warnings.

Test the tank for water regularly. Water in petroleum is not only a source of engine trouble,
but will also cause damage to the pump.

Periodically check and lubricate all key lock cylinders and locking mechanisms.
6.2 Strainer/Filter
A dirty strainer screen and/or filter will slow down the delivery of product. With new tank and
piping installations, it may be necessary to replace the filter and clean the strainer screen two or
three times during the first few days of operation to remove installation debris and pipe sealant.
After this, filter replacement and strainer cleaning should be performed periodically.
Before removing the filter or strainer, always turn off the power to the dispenser, turn off the
power to the submersible pump and close the emergency shutoff valve underneath the
dispenser. Failure to do so may result in a hazardous condition that can result in serious injury.
Make sure safety goggles are worn. Loosen the strainer cap or spin-on filter slightly and allow
the product to drain into a plastic container until pressure is relieved. Return the product to the
appropriate tank.

The optional external filter is removed by unscrewing it (the same way an oil filter is
removed from a car engine). Place a container under the filter to catch the product and
sediment. To install the new filter: apply a film of oil to the gasket, hand turn until gasket
contacts base, then tighten 3/4 turn (follow any directions supplied with filter). Open the
emergency shutoff valve (if applicable), turn the electrical power ON and check for leaks.
The external filter option is shipped with a standard 10-micron filter. This filter does not provide
water absorption. Also, for some fuels such as biodiesel, special filter elements are required
(Note: Dispenser has not been evaluated for Biodiesel (up to 20%), by UL).
The installer and
user should make sure the filter meets the requirements of the application, satisfies
local/state/federal codes, and replace the filter with an appropriate filter as necessary. Some
applications, such as aircraft refueling, require special filtration equipment in order to ensure
product purity. Replacement filters must be UL-recognized.

Remove the strainer for cleaning by removing the bolts from the strainer cap. Place a
container under the cap to catch the product and sediment. Pull out the strainer. Wash the
screen in gasoline and dislodge lint and other foreign particles with compressed air. Install
the clean strainer and replace the strainer cap. Open any emergency shutoff valves and
turn the electrical power ON and check for leaks.
