To minimize static electricity build up and possible explosion, use only static wire conductive hose when pumping
flammable fluids, and keep the fill nozzle in contact with the container being filled during the filling process. Spark/
static discharge will cause explosions.
Threaded pipe joints and connections should be sealed with the appropriate sealant or sealant tape to minimize the
possibility of leaks. Leaking fuel may cause the potential for fire and explosion.
The pump motor is equipped with thermal overload protection; if overheated, the motor will shut off to prevent damage
to the windings. If this happens, you must turn off the pump power to reset this safety feature, and turn the pump back
on when it has cooled to continue use. The pump will not restart until properly cooled.
This product is not suited for use with fluids intended for human consumption or fluids containing water. Materials of
construction are not food grade. The pump is water tolerant, however, extended use with water will shorten the life of
the vanes, and can cause swelling of the rotor. Flush / drain the pump after pumping water to be certain water does not
stand in the pump body to prevent premature wear. Flush with a petroleum product (gasoline, diesel, light oil, etc) to
eradicate residual water.
A Fill-Rite Filter should be used on the pump outlet to ensure no foreign material is transferred to the fuel tank. Foreign
material can damage the equipment being fueled.
