tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling and relieve
pressure gradually, then loosen completely; then clear
the tip or hose.

The pump is tested with lightweight oil, which is left in
to protect the pump parts. If the fluid you are using
may be contaminated by the oil, flush it out with a
compatible solvent before using the pump.
WARNING
For your safety, read the warning section
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD on
page 4 before flushing, and follow all
the recommendations given there.
