GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
It is the responsibility of the user to operate the pump in conformance
with OSHA rules for dispensing liquids. Pump containers should be
grounded when using with flammable liquids to avoid static electricity.
Pump should be washed out before usage since processing lubricants
could contaminate the fluid.
1. When using a hand pump (especially when pumping flammable,
combustible, or hazardous liquids) follow all electrical and safety codes,
as well as the United States Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA),
most recent National FIre Protection Association, Inc. † (NFPA) Code
30 (Flammable and Combustible Code), NFPA 56A (Standard for use of
Inhalation Anesthetics), NFPA 77 (Static Electricity), NFPA 78 (Lighting
Protection Code), NFPA 80 (Standard Method of Fire Test of Building
Construction), NFPA 704 (Identification of the Fire Hazards of Material(s),
other NFPA codes, local codes and ordinances, as needed in a particular
application.
(†)Any of the NFPA Codes can be obtained from National Fire Protection
Association, Inc., Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, telephone 1-800-

2. Know the pump application, limitations and potential hazards. The
WARNING statements indicate potentially hazardous conditions for
the operator or equipment. TAKE NECESSARY STEPS TO PROTECT
PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT. Pump should only be used with
liquids compatible with pump component materials. Consult PUMP
CHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY CHART and PUMP SPECIFICATIONS.
Also, the chemical supplier should be consulted regarding any questions
of chemical compatibility, proper and safe use and handling of chemical
.Misapplication of pump or use of non-compatible liquids will void warranty.
In order to properly use this product familiarize yourself with this pump
and also with the liquid (chemical, etc.) that is going to be pumped
through the unit. Although this pump is suitable for many liquids, it is not
suitable for all liquids!
3. Pumping hazardous, flammable or combustible liquids should only be
done in buildings, rooms or areas suited for this purpose (See NFPA 30,
NFPA 78, NFPA 80, NFPA 251, NFPA 704, other suitable NFPA codes,
OSHA, insurance companies, local codes and ordinances).
When filling cans, drums, etc. with combustible or flammable liquids, both
container pumping from and container pumping to, should be bonded
and grounded to dissipate possible accumulations of static electricity
and minimize sparks caused by static electricity (refer to NFPA 77 for
specifics and further details).
Removal of outer garments in work areas where there may be flammable
or explosive liquids, which are ignitable with low electrical energy can be
fatal and/or cause property damage (refer to NFPA 56A, and NFPA 77 for
further details).
4. The WARNING and instructions for gasoline that follow pertain not only to
gasoline, but to any flammable, combustible or hazardous fluid.
Gasoline is a highly flammable fuel. The improper use, handling or
storage of gasoline can be dangerous. Prevent accidents by following
these safety rules:
• Use gasoline only as fuel, never as a cleaning fluid.
• Use only an approved container to hold or store gasoline. Never
store gasoline in familiar containers such as milk or soda pop
bottles.
