warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this manual where applicable.

WARNING

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

High-pressure fluid from dispense valve, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may

look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical

treatment.

• Do not point dispense valve at anyone or at any part of the body.

• Do not put your hand over the end of the dispense nozzle.

• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

• Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop spraying and before cleaning,

checking, or servicing equipment.

• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.

• Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD

Use of fluids that are incompatible with aluminum in pressurized equipment can cause serious chemical

reaction and equipment rupture. Failure to follow this warning can result in death, serious injury, or

property damage.

• Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or

fluids containing such solvents.

• Many other fluids may contain chemicals that can react with aluminum. Contact your material supplier

for compatibility.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

You must wear appropriate protective equipment when operating, servicing, or when in the operating area

of the equipment to help protect you from serious injury, including eye injury, hearing loss, inhalation of

toxic fumes, and burns. This equipment includes but is not limited to:

• Protective eyewear, and hearing protection.

• Respirators, protective clothing, and gloves as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer.

Instructions

3A1495C 3

Instructions

Always use all new parts included in your kit and dis-

pose of replaced parts according to all state and local

regulations for disposal of discarded components.

Inspect all parts when disassembling the pump. Replace

any and all worn and damaged parts.

Pressure Relief Procedure

1. Close the pump’s bleed-type master air valve.

2. Close the pump air regulator and disconnect the air

supply hose.

3. Open the dispensing valve and dispense fluid into a

waste bucket/container until pressure is fully

relieved.

If you suspect that the dispensing valve is clogged, or

that pressure has not been fully relieved after following

the steps above, very slowly loosen the dispensing

valve coupler or hose end coupling to relieve pressure

gradually, then loosen completely.

Disassembly

The following disassembly instructions describe the pro-

cedure for completely disassembling the LD grease

pump. Depending on the repair/maintenance procedure

you are performing on the pump, it may not be neces-

sary to entirely disassemble the pump or perform all

steps in this procedure.

The reference numbers used in the following instruc-

tions correspond to the reference numbers used in the

LD Series Oil and Grease Pump instruction manual.

1. Stop the pump. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure,

page 3.

2. Disconnect and remove the pump from its installed

location.

3. Clamp the pump (1) upside down in a vise as shown

in Fig. 1.

NOTE: Take care to only use enough clamping

force to hold the pump in position. The pump cylin-

der is aluminum and could be damaged by using

excessive clamping force.

If you are only servicing the air valve (40) and seals

(18) or air piston (15), skip Steps 4 - 14.

The equipment stays pressurized until pressure is manually

relieved. To reduce the risk of serious injury from pressur-

ized fluid, fluid from the valve, or splashing fluid, follow the

procedure whenever you:

• are instructed to relieve pressure

• stop dispensing

• check, clean, or service any system equipment

• install or clean dispensing devices.
