Pump
NOTE: The reference numbers in the following
instructions refer to Parts, page 12.
NOTE: Pipe/thread sealant is user supplied, do not use
the PVC cement supplied with the product.
The oil transfer pumps are positive displacement
pumps. The motors are drip proof rated and have sealed
bearings and require minimal maintenance. All models
come with hose, nozzle, 34 in. (864 mm) suction tube
assemble, and bung adapter.
Mount Pump on Drum
1. Install the bung adapter (14) in the drum bung and
tighten.
2. Assemble the suction tube sections (18) by applying
PVC cement (21) to the inside diameter of the PVC
couplers (19, 20). Make sure that the PVC cement
(21) is applied to the complete inside diameter and
slide the pipe sections into the coupler with a
twisting motion.
3. Apply pipe sealant to the threaded end of the
suction tube, then screw the tube into the pump inlet
port, making sure that the tube is tight.
4. Insert the suction tube attached to the pump
through the bung adapter, and lower the pump onto
the bung adapter. Position the pump, as desired,
then tighten the swivel nut (23) to the bung adapter
(14).
Mount Hose and Nozzle
1. Before connecting the hose to the pump, pour 8 oz.
(0.24 l) of oil into the pump outlet port so that the
pump does not run dry during the initial startup.
2. Apply pipe sealant to the male threads of the elbow
(12), then secure the elbow into the outlet port.
3. Apply pipe sealant to one end of the hose assembly
(17), then twist the hose end into the elbow.
4. Apply pipe sealant to the other end of the hose
assembly (17).
5. Apply thread sealant onto the nozzle (15) end that
connects to the ball valve (16).
6. Fasten the ball valve and nozzle (15, 16) onto the
hose assembly, positioning the nozzle (15) down for
dispensing.
Electrical Installation
115 VAC
The 115 VAC models come wired with a short power
cord and a grounding electrical plug. Power to the unit
must be grounded 115 VAC single phase. If an
extension cord is required, it must be a 3-wire cord with
a grounding plug and a grounding receptacle. Supply
power to the pump using a 20 amp circuit.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking and electric shock. Electric or static
sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode.
Improper grounding can cause electric shock.
Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric
current.
All electrical wiring must be done by a qualified
electrician and comply with all local codes and
regulations.
