Safety Information

DANGER! Electrical wiring should be performed with extreme caution and in compliance with local,
state, and national electrical code NEC/ANSI/NFPA 70, NFPA 30, and NFPA 30A, as appropriate for the
intended use of the pump. Threaded rigid conduit, sealed fittings, and conductor seal should be used
where applicable. The pump must be properly grounded. If installing in deviation of this manual, a licensed
electrician must perform the installation. Improper installation or use of this product will result in serious
bodily injury, or death!
DANGER! To ensure safe and proper operation of your equipment, it is critical to read and adhere to all of
the following safety warnings and precautions. Failure to follow instructions below, improper installation, or
use of this product, will cause serious bodily injury or death!
• NEVER smoke near the pump, or use the pump near open flames when pumping a flammable liquid!
Fire can result!
• This product shall not be used to transfer fluids into any type of aircraft due to spark / static discharge
possibility. Spark / static discharge will cause explosions.
DANGER! 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.
WARNING! 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.
CAUTION! 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.
CAUTION! 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.
IMPORTANT! 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.
