Installation
Stand and Mounting
The pump is very heavy (see Technical
Specifications on page 15 for specific weights). If the
pump must be moved, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure on page 12 and have two people lift the
pump by grasping the outlet manifold securely, or use
appropriate lifting equipment. Never have one person
move or lift the pump.
For pumps that are provided with a stand, the pump
must be mounted to the stand before securing the pump
to the mounting surface. Ensure that the pump is
securely mounted to the stand.
1. Ensure that the mounting surface is level and can
support the weight of the pump, lines, and
accessories, as well as the stress caused during
operation.
2. Mount the pump and stand assembly on a level
surface and secure the assembly to the mounting
surface. See Technical Specifications, page 15,
for dimensions of the mounting holes for your pump.
NOTE: For ease of operation and service, mount
the pump so the air valve cover, air inlet, and fluid
inlet and outlet ports are easily accessible.

Air Line
A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in the
system to relieve air trapped between this valve and
the pump. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury,
including splashing in the eyes or on the skin. See

1. Install the air line accessories as shown in F
Verify that the air line supplying the accessories is
grounded.
a. Install an air regulator (C) and air pressure
gauge (V) to control the fluid pressure. The fluid
outlet pressure will be the same as the setting of
the air regulator.
b. Locate one bleed-type master air valve (B)
close to the pump and use it to relieve trapped
air. Locate the other master air valve (E)
upstream from all air line accessories and use it
to isolate them during cleaning and repair.
c. The air line filter (F) removes harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressed air supply.
2. Install a conductive, grounded, flexible air supply
line (A) between the accessories and the 3/4 npt(f)
pump air inlet (M).
