Power Switch; Operational Safety - TMG DFP10 Product Manual

Power Switch

DANGER! Be certain the power switch is "OFF" prior to connecting the battery clamps / power cables to the
power source or installing the cable into the pump to prevent unexpected starting of the motor. Unexpected
motor start can cause unintended discharge of fuel, creating an explosion and / or fire hazard.
WARNING! The pump body can become hot with extended use. Always use the handle to lift and carry the
pump when moving it. Use caution when gripping the handle as exposed skin may be burned if it contacts a
hot pump.
IMPORTANT! The RD series pump uses thermal overload protection to prevent overheating. If the pump
shuts off due to thermal overload, turn the power switch "OFF". Once the pump cools the switch can be set
to "ON" again to reset the thermal protection.
The pump features a sliding ON / OFF power switch. The switch is located on top of the pump at the back of the
pump housing. To operate the pump, push the switch to the desired position. Push "ON" to operate the pump, and push
"OFF" to turn the pump off.
NOTE: The side where the switch button is depressed is the function the switch is performing.

Operational Safety

DANGER! DO NOT use pump in enclosed areas when pumping hazardous or explosive fluids. Pumping
area should be well ventilated. Concentrated vapors in an enclosed area are noxious and highly explosive!
WARNING! NEVER disconnect the power cable from the pump while pump is switched on or connected to a
power source. ALWAYS switch the pump off and disconnect all the clamps from the power source PRIOR
to disconnecting the power cable from the pump. Electrical shorts, sparks, or unexpected start up can occur.
WARNING! Use caution when operating or carrying the pump. The hoses and electrical power cable can
be a trip hazard; caution should be exercised any time the pump is moved with the hoses and power cable
connected to avoid tripping or entanglement.
WARNING! Pump assembly can become hot with extended use. Use caution when handling the pump after
use; always use the handle to move or hold the pump. Pump has 30 minute on / 30 minute off duty cycle.
CAUTION! DO NOT operate the pump dry for more than 30 seconds. DO NOT operate the pump in bypass
more than 5 minutes. Damage to the pump will occur.
CAUTION! DO NOT operate the pump if any part of the explosion proof motor construction is missing or
compromised. Disassembly of the motor will compromise the explosion proof design and void any warranty.
