To prevent serious injury or property damage, read and understand owner’s manual before
operating.
Know and follow applicable national, state, and local safety codes pertaining to installing and
operating electrical equipment for use with flammable liquids.
Know and follow all safety precautions when handling petroleum fuels.
Ensure that all equipment operators have access to adequate instructions concerning safe
operating and maintenance procedures.
To ensure safe operation, all fuel transfer systems must be properly grounded. Proper grounding
means a continuous metal-to-metal contact from one component to the next, including tank, bung,
pump, meter, filter, hose, and nozzle. Care should be taken to ensure proper grounding during
initial installation and after any service or repair procedures.
To prevent physical injury, observe precautions against fire or explosion when dispensing fuel. Do
not operate the system in the presence of any source of ignition including running or hot engines,
lighted cigarettes, or gas or electric heaters.
Observe precautions against electrical shock when operating the system. Serious or fatal shock
can result from operating electrical equipment in damp or wet locations.
Inspect external pump wiring regularly to make sure it is correctly attached to the battery. To avoid
electrical shock, use extra care when connecting the pump to power.
Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels. Use protective goggles, gloves and aprons in
case of splashing or spills. Change saturated clothing and wash skin promptly with soap and
water.
Make sure the power switch is in the off position before connecting power.
Wear the proper protective gear including ANSI Z87.1 compliant safety goggles while operating.
Observe precautions against electrical shock when servicing the pump. Always disconnect power
before repairing or servicing. Never apply electrical power to the system when any of the cover
plates are removed.
If using solvent to clean pump components or tank, observe the solvent manufacturer’s
recommendations for safe use and disposal.
Electrical wiring should be done by a licensed electrician in compliance with local codes. A rigid
conduit should be used and proper grounding must be provided to avoid the possibility of electrical
shock. Failure to comply with this warning could result in serious injury and/or loss of property.
Use only static wire and a conductive hose when pumping flammable fluids.
This product should not be used for fluid transfer into an aircraft. This product is not suited for use
with fluids for human consumption or fluids containing water.
Extreme operating conditions with working cycles longer than 30 minutes can cause the motor
temperature to rise, thus damaging the motor itself. Each 30-minute working cycle should always
be followed by a 30-minute power-off cooling phase.
Use PTFE tape on all pipe threads.
Do not exceed the maximum by-passing time of 3 minutes.
Do not run dry past 30 seconds.
Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch hot surfaces.
Disconnect circuit before removing cover and enclosure must be closed tightly when circuits are
live.
A seal shall be installed within 50mm of the enclosure.
