Safety Information
1.
WARNING: Do Not Pump Flammable or
Explosive Fluids Such as Gasoline, Fuel Oil,
Kerosene, etc. Do Not Use in Explosive
Atmospheres. The Pump Should be Used Only
with Liquids that are Compatible with the Pump
Component Materials. Failure to Follow this
Warning Can Result in Personal Injury and/or
Property Damage and Will Void the Product
Warranty.
2.
Be sure all exposed moving parts such as PTO
shafts and adapters are properly shielded or
guarded and that all coupling devices are securely
attached before applying power.
3.
Pumps mounted directly onto PTO shaft or other
power shaft must be prevented from rotating with the
power shaft. Pump must float freely on the power
shaft and must not be tied rigidly to equipment on
which it is mounted.
4.
DO NOT EXCEED recommended speed, pressure
and temperature (140˚ F) for pump and equipment
being used.
5.
BEFORE SERVICING, disconnect all power, make
sure all pressure in the system is relieved, drain all
liquids from the system and flush. On gas engine-
driven models, remove the spark plug wire from the
spark plug before servicing the pump or engine.
6.
Secure the discharge lines before starting the pump.
An unsecured line may whip, causing personal injury
and/or property damage.
7.
Check hose for weak or worn condition before each
use. Make certain that all connections are tight and
secure.
8.
Periodically inspect the pump and the system
components. Perform routine maintenance as
required (see Maintenance section).
9.
Protect pump from freezing conditions by draining
liquid and pumping rust inhibiting antifreeze solution
through the system, coating the pump interior.
10. Do not operate a gasoline engine in an enclosed
area. Be sure the area is well ventilated.
WARNING: Gasoline is a Highly Combustible Fuel.
The Improper Use, Handling, or Storage of Gasoline
Can be Dangerous. Never Touch or Fill a Hot Engine.
11. Use only pipe, hose and fittings rated for the
maximum psi rating of the pump.
12. Do not use these pumps for pumping water or other
liquids for human or animal consumption.
1.
Always drain and flush pump before servicing or
disassembling for any reason (see instructions).
2.
Always drain and flush pumps prior to returning unit
for repair.
3.
Never store pumps containing hazardous chemicals.
4.
Before returning pump for service/repair, drain out all
liquids and flush unit with neutralizing liquid. Then,
drain the pump. Attach tag or include written notice
certifying that this has been done. Please note that it
is illegal to ship or transport any hazardous
chemicals without United States Environmental
Protection Agency Licensing.
This manual will cover the installation of the basic drive configurations available for Hypro direct-drive centrifugal
pumps. Consult the manufacturer of your tractor, motor or engine for additional information. Read all instructions and
general safety information before attempting to install or operate the pump.

Mounting Belts and Pulleys
Mount pulleys as close to pump and motor engine shaft
bearings as possible. Check alignment with a straight
edge as shown in Fig. 1. Make sure that belt has proper
tension. (Too much tension will cause bearing wear; too
little will cause slippage.) See Fig. 2. Check with belt and
pulley sources for specific recommendation.
