Mounting the Pump
1. Select a convenient location for the equipment, to
ensure easy operator access to the pump air
controls, sufficient room to change supply contain-
ers, and a secure mounting platform.
2. If using a follow plate (K), remove the fluid contain-
er cover. To prevent air from being trapped under
the follow plate, scoop grease from the center of
the container to the sides, to make the surface
concave. Place the follow plate on the grease and
push down on the plate until grease appears at the
center opening (P). See Fig 4.

3. Guide the pump intake valve through the cover
and follow plate. Secure the cover to the container.
4. Position the pump (A) so its intake valve is no
more than 1/2 in. (13 mm) from the bottom of the
container. Mount the pump to the cover or other
suitable mounting device.
WARNING
Mount the pump securely so that it cannot move
around during operation. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury or equipment damage.

Maximum Working Pressure
The maximum working pressure of each compo-
nent in your system may not be the same. To
reduce the risk of overpressurizing any part of your
system, be sure you know the maximum working
pressure rating of each component. Never exceed
the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated
component connected to a pump. Use the following
table to limit the air to the pump so that no air line
or fluid line component or accessory is overpres-
surized.
