PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE
Always perform
this procedure
when the
pump is shut off and before
checking,
servicing, installing, cleaning or repairing
any part of this system.
Perform the following procedure:
A.
B.
C.
Disconnect the air supply to
the pump.
Point the dispensing valve
away from yourself and
others.
Open the dispensing valve
into an appropriate container
until the pressure is relieved.
If the above procedure
does not
relieve
the pressure, the dispensing valve or hose
may be restricted. To relieve the pressure,
very slowly loosen the hose end coupling.
Then loosen
completely
and clear the
dispensing valve and/or hose.
OPERATION
INSPECTION
BEFORE
USING
PUMP
Prior to operation or maintenance
a visual
inspection
shall be made.
Check pump
system for leaks, worn or missing parts.
Any pump that appears to be damaged in
any way,
is badly
worn
or operates
abnormally
shall be removed
from use
until repairs are made. Contact a factory
authorized service center for repairs.
If overpressurizing
of the equipment
is
believed
to have occurred,
contact
a
factory
authorized
service
center
for
inspection of the pump.
Annual inspection by a factory authorized
service center is recommended.
USING PUMP
To prevent personal injury, perform
I
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
before and after operating the pump
To start pump, turn on the main air
supply.
Slowly open the air regulator.
Regulate air pressure from 20-40 psig
and throttle to prime pump.
Open the
dispensing
valve to allow air to be
purged from the system.
Allow pump
to cycle until grease without air pockets
flows from dispensing valve, then close
dispensing valve.
After
pump
is primed,
adjust
air
pressure to achieve a smooth flow of
grease from the dispensing valve.
Do
not allow pump to operate when out of
material.
Pump will accelerate quickly
and run too fast, resulting
in costly
damage to the pump.
If the pump accelerates
quickly or is
running too fast, stop it immediately.
Check the grease supply and refill it if
necessary.
Prime
the
pump
to
remove all air from the system, or flush
the pump and relieve pressure.
In a circulating system, the pump runs
continuously
and
slows
down
or
speeds up as supply demands,
until
the air supply is shut off.
In a direct
supply
system,
with
adequate air pressure supplied to the
motor, the pump starts when the gun
or dispensing
valve is opened
and
stalls
against
pressure
when
it is
closed.
Use the air regulator to control pump
speed and greasepressure.
Always
use the lowest pressure
required
to
achieve the desired
results.
Higher
pressures will cause pump packings to
wear prematurely.
MAINTENANCE
I
To prevent personal injury, perform
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
before and after operating the pump
and before any maintenance.

LUBRICATION
An air line filter/regulator/lubricator
is
recommended
for use with your Lincoln
pump
to remove
harmful
dirt
and
moisture
from
your compressor
air
supply,
and to provide
automatic
air
motor lubrication.
If an air line lubricator is not used, the
following
procedure
should
be per-
formed daily:
A.
B.
C.
Disconnect air coupler from
air fitting.
Fill air coupler with NO. 10
SAE motor oil and reconnect
to air fitting.
Operate pump to distribute
lubricant.
MATERIAL RESTRICTION
PREVENTION
Flush the system
as required
with a
compatible
solvent to prevent material
buildup
when pumping
material
that
dries or hardens.
CORROSION
PREVENTION
To reduce the risk of injury from
splashing
or static sparking when
flushing
the pump with solvents,
always
hold a metal
part of the
dispensing valve firmly to the side of
a grounded metal pail and operate
pump
at lowest
possible
fluid
pressure.
To prevent water or air corrosion, new
leave the pump filled with water or air
Flush the pump first with a compatible
solvent
and then again with mineral
spirits or oil based solvent.
