Installation and operation

Installation

Place unit in approximate location making
sure electric power connections are
accessible.
 Mark center locations of six holes at bot-
tom of reservoir († Fig. , page ).
 Drill six / in (13 mm) holes. Use of
1
2
(10 mm) bolts will offer some flexibility in
securing reservoir to equipment.
 Connect lubricant outlet of pump to sys-
tem with suitable hose capable of
  psi (241 bar) working pressure.
 Wire pump motor and vent valve as shown
(† Fig. , page ).
NOTE
Verify red electric motor lead is con-
nected to positive side of circuit.
Motor will not run if wired incorrectly.
NOTE
Refer to  operation manual
 for setting pump control on
 V .

Operation

Fill reservoir

 Clean area around filling port.
 Remove lower () and upper () pipe
plugs from side of reservoir († Fig. IPB ,
page ).
/ in  Attach appropriate bulk-filling pump to
7
16
lower inlet ( in NPT).
 Fill reservoir until grease appears at the
top  1 / NPT vent high level port.

 Remove bulk filling pump.
 Replace both pipe plugs.
NOTE
Do not overfill reservoir. Extreme pres-
sure can damage reservoir and/or pump
housing.
Fill reservoir
(MSO equipped)
Body and guide assembly (), pivot arm
(), supply line relief, follower () and
cover () work in combination with each
other to prevent grease from overfilling res-
ervoir during refill process († Fig. IPB ,
page ).
As grease fills reservoir, follower rises and
lifts pivot arm, forcing body and guide
assembly closed. When body and guide
assembly closes, pressure continues to rise
in supply line causing pump to stall. At that
point, supply line relief valve must be opened
to relieve pressure from system.
Operational procedure
 Verify relief valve is closed.
 Turn supply pump on.
 Supply pump stalls when gauge reaches
maximum.
 If grease level sensor or indicator option is
available with system, verify reservoir is
full of grease.
 Turn off supply pump.
 Open pressure relief valve to vent down
stall pressure. Make sure relief valve is
open long enough to remove pressure
from system.
 Disengage quick disconnect.
 Cap quick disconnect ends to prevent
contamination.
 Leave relief valve open until next fill cycle.
