WARNINGS:
1. Ensure check valve is installed correctly with respect to flow. Incorrectly installed check valve can result in
pump failure and require total rebuild.
2. Hot oil can cause severe burns. Never remove filter while pump is running.
3. Do not use Teflon tape. This may void warranty.
NOTES:
1. Use only genuine Tuthill Replacement Oil Filter (part # 058379 0000). Contact your local Tuthill distributor or
email [email protected] to reorder replacement oil filters.
2. When starting KT Pump the green/red gage (#14 FIGURE 2) needle may be in the red until the oil is above 140
F, this is normal. If gage needle is in the red when temperature is above 140 F, replace filter.
INSTRUCTIONS:
***ENSURE YOU HAVE RECIEVED ALL PARTS INCLUDED IN PARTS LIST***
1. Lockout/Tagout machine. Use caution as oil & surfaces may be hot. Allow pump to cool to at least 100 F before
proceeding to drain oil.
2. Remove all existing oil plumbing except for the oil pump.
3. Ensure remaining plumbing ports are free of debris.
4. Remove the two bolts in the separator housing where the bracket will be mounted (refer to FIGURE 2). These
bolts will not be reused.
