PUMP OPERATION
If the pump has already been primed and the compressed air feed is connected to the appropriate
work pressure level (70-115psi), the pump will start automatically when the nozzle or gun situated
at the end of the grease delivery circuit is opened.
To stop the pump, simply close the nozzle or disconnect the air inlet line.
Wear ANSI Z87.1 compliant goggles and other protective gear while operating.
Inspect before each use; check that all connections are tight and secure.
Never use if parts are damaged or broken; replace damaged or broken parts before operating.
DO NOT try to mend it with tape or any other device. A repaired hose cannot safely contain the high
pressure fluid.
The compressed air must be filtered to avoid dust and moisture into pump.
Use fluids and solvents which are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. Refer to the
Technical Data section of all equipment manuals. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer's
warnings.
Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents, or
fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum equipment. Such use could result in a
chemical reaction, with the possibility of explosion.
Disconnect air hose and relieve air pressure before servicing.
Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
Wear ANSI Z87.1 compliant goggles and other protective gear while operating.
Wear an adiabatic glove when operating pump.
