Pressure Relief Procedure - Lincoln A Series User Manual

Pressure Relief Procedure

Always perform this procedure before servicing or when the
pump is to be out of service for a period of time.
• Disconnect the air supply from the pump
• Point the dispensing valve away from yourself and others,
and direct into a suitable container.
• Open the dispensing valve into the container and hold
it open until the flow of lubricant stops, and pressure is
relieved.
Lubrication and Care of the Pump
An air line filter, regulator, and lubricator are highly recom-
mended for use with these pumps to prevent harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressor from entering the pump's air
motor, and to provide for automatic air motor lubrication.

High Pressure Lubrigun
If an air lubricator is not used the following procedure must be
performed daily:
• Disconnect the air coupler from the pump air inlet.
• Fill the coupler with SAE 10 motor oil and reconnect the
coupler to the air nipple.
To prevent corrosion, never leave water or moist air in the
pump's air motor. This will cause corrosion and shorten the life
of the air motor.
Prevent damage to the hose and control valve by using the
control valve hanger, or coiling the hose around the pump
when not in use. Never kink the high pressure hose or drive
over the hose, as damage may weaken the hose with the
possibility of bursting. A burst high pressure hose is a very
dangerous occurrence, which can result in severe injuries and
or property damage.
