2. Suction tube (4 ft.) with foot valve
3. Discharge tube (4 ft.) max length
for delivery
WEAR
protective clothing and eyewear when dispensing chemicals or other materials.
ALWAYS
observe safety and handling instructions of the chemical manufacturers.
ALWAYS
direct discharge away from you or other persons or into approved containers.
ALWAYS
dispense cleaners and chemicals in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Exercise
CAUTION
when maintaining your equipment.
CLEAN
equipment after each use in accordance with instruction sheet.

ATTACH
only to tap water outlets (75 PSI maximum).
Installation and Operation:
1. Select a metering tip (see next section), and insert it into the suction stub. Slide the open end of the suction tube through the
bung adaptor, then over the suction stub.
2. Slide end of discharge tube over the eductor discharge outlet.
3. Remove either the 3/4 or 2-inch bung from an upright drum.
4. Insert the foot valve end of the suction tube into the drum.
5. Swivel the drum adapter several turns in the bung opening until the bracket is secure.
6. Install minimum 1/2-inch ID water hose between the inlet swivel and water supply spigot. (Minimum 25 PSI flowing water
pressure is required to operate the unit.)
7. Turn on water supply. To begin dispensing solution, open ball valve at inlet to unit. Do not keep discharge hose in liquid! The
concentrate will siphon from the container.
Metering Tip Selection:
The final concentration of the dispensed liquid is related to both the size of the metering tip opening (orifice) and the
viscosity of the liquid being siphoned. If product viscosity is noticeably greater than that of water, consult the procedure for
Measurement of Concentration on the next page to achieve your desired water-to-product ratio. For waterthin products, use
the chart below as a guideline. Because such factors as inlet water pressure and temperature can affect dilution ratios, the
figures listed below are only approximate. Test the actual dilution you are achieving using the Measurement of Concentration
procedure for best results. Two undrilled, clear tips are supplied for drilling sizes not listed.
