Recommendations —
Electrical:
1.
The 5900 series pumps are designed for intermittent duty.
Make sure that “OFF” periods are sufficient. Refer to Rapid
ON/OFF Operation. Consult the factory for particular data and
design criteria.
2.
Be sure power supply used is adequate for the application.
3. Pump and motor specifictions are based on an alternator
charged battery (13.7 VDC)
4. Use sufficient battery supply power. Smaller ATV and lawn
tractor batteries may affect pump performance due to low
voltage and amp ratings.
* Important return safety instructions:
When you return your pump for warranty or repair, you must always
do the following:
1. Flush chemical residue from the pump (best done in the field).
2. Tag pump with type of chemicals having been sprayed.
3. Include complete description of operation problem, such as how pump
was used, symptoms of malfunction, etc.
Since pumps can contain residues of toxic chemicals these steps are
necessary to protect all the people who handle return shipments, and to
help pinpoint the reason for the breakdown.
Model: 5900: 4.0 GPM
Operation Precautions —
1. The pump is equipped with a pressure sensing demand switch that controls the maximum operating pressure.
2. Do not operate pump in an explosive environment. Arcing from the motor brushes, switch or excessive heat from an improperly
cycled motor may cause an explosion.
3. Do not locate the pump motor near low temperature plastics or combustible material. The surface temperature of the motor may
exceed 250°F (120°C).
4. Do not pump gasoline or other flammable liquids. Pump head materials are designed for use with water only. Do not use with
petroleum products.
5. Do not assume fluid compatibility. If the fluid is improperly matched to the pumps’ elastomers, a leak may occur.
6. To prevent electrical shock, disconnect power before initiating any work. In the case of pump failure, the motor housing and/or
pump fluid may carry high voltage to components normally considered safe. Therefore, always consider electrical shock hazard when
working with and handling electrical equipment. If uncertain, consult an electrician. Electrical wiring should only be done by a
qualified electrician per local and state electrical codes.
