Pumping From Draft
1.
Position the apparatus as close to the water source as practical. The pump
can draw 100% of its rated capacity with less than a 10 foot (3.05 meters)
vertical lift and 20 feet (6 meters) of suction hose.
As the vertical lift increases to above 10 feet (3 meters), pump capacity is
reduced. Also see Figure F-6: “Lift Loss from Elevation” on page 141.
2.
Bring the truck to a complete stop, apply the truck parking brake, shift the
truck transmission to the NEUTRAL position. See WARNING ! note on
page 33.
3.
Make sure the truck is at a complete stop before you attempt to shift from
ROAD to PUMP. Also see heading “Pump-To-Road Shift Procedures” on
page 45.
Engage the PTO (power take-off) per the PTO manufacturer’s instructions
(move the in-cab pump shift control valve to the PUMP position). The
GREEN shift warning lights illuminate, indicating a complete shift. (See Fig-
ure 3-1: “Driver’s Compartment Indicator Lights” on page 35.)
Note: If the truck manufacturer uses another in-cab valve to achieve pump shift or
offers an electric switch, follow the instructions supplied with that valve.
CAUTION !
DO NOT LEAVE THE CAB OR ATTEMPT TO PUMP UNTIL ALL THE GREEN PUMP
LIGHTS IN THE CAB ARE ON.
DO NOT OPEN THE THROTTLE UNLESS THE GREEN INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON.
(SEE FIGURE 3-2: “PUMP OPERATOR’S PANEL” ON PAGE 36.)
4.
Exit the driving compartment only after all the above steps are completed
and you are sure that the appropriate lights in the cab and panel are ON.
5.
Verify that the pump panel GREEN shift indicator OK TO PUMP light illumi-
nates and that all hose connections are complete.
For “Split-Shaft” operation
❑
Place the truck transmission in the proper pump operating range or gear.
For most pumpers this is direct drive (1:1) ratio. The speedometer should
register after the shift has been completed.
❑
If the shift does not complete, shift the transmission back to NEUTRAL (N)
and repeat the entire procedure.
