6 FILLING THE LUBRICANT RESERVOIR OF THE PUMPING UNIT
Lubricant reservoir of the pumping unit is filled through the filling connector which is equipped
with a filter.
Use of filling device (Safematic code 11600352; suitable for 20 l / 18 kg barrel)
Note
Numbers in brackets are part numbers of drawing 461799A.
1. Ensure that the surroundings of the pumping unit are clean. Impurities in the system
prevent trouble-free operation and cause damage when reaching the lubrication point.
2. Remove the lid from the lubricant reservoir (1) and press the follower plate (2) tightly to the
reservoir above the lubricant. Follower plate is not used with fluid lubricants, as it does not
remain on the surface.
3. Place the lid (3) on top of the lubricant reservoir. Fasten the lid with wing screws (4) on the
lubricant reservoir.
4. Place the pump (5) through the lid into the follower plate central unit (6).
5. Connect the lubricant hose (7) to the pump.
6. Fill the lubricant hose by pumping by hand.
7. Connect the quick connector (8) to the lubricant hose.
8. Connect the quick connector to the pumping unit filling connector (9).
9. Fill the lubricant reservoir of the pumping unit by pumping slowly by hand.
10. Filling of the lubricant reservoir can be followed at the level indicator (10). To prevent
overfilling, the pumping unit is equipped with a safety valve (11).
11. Turn the pump handle (12) to upright position so that pressure discharges to the lubricant
reservoir.
12. Disconnect the quick connector from the pumping unit filling connector.
13. Fasten the protecting cap (13) of the pumping unit filling connector.
14. Fasten the protecting cap (14) of the filling device quick connector.
Caution
Filter (15) of the filling connector has to be cleaned regularly and replaced if
necessary. Cleaning and replacing has to be performed when the reservoir
is empty.
Caution
Do not fill the reservoir without the filter.
Caution
The viscosity of used oil must be min. 46 cSt in pumping unit operation
temperature.
