4. OPERATION
4.1.
Filling and Transport
4.1.1. Move the empty tank assembly with two persons using the hand holds moulded into
the base of the unit (fig.2). DO NOT run the pump without fuel in the tank. To do so will
damage the pump's internal components and will invalidate your warranty.
4.1.2. The tank is filled by unscrewing the filler (fig.1.1) in an anticlockwise direction. Refit the
filler cap immediately after filling.
WARNING take care not to overfill the tank.
4.1.3. The full tank can be moved by forklift truck using the fork locations shown in fig.2.
Ensure that both the filler (fig.1.1) and security valve (fig.1.2) are closed before moving.
4.1.4. Secure the tank to the carrying vehicle by ratchet straps. Locations for the straps are
moulded into the tank (fig1.6.).
4.2.
Fuel Dispensing
4.2.1. Before connecting to a battery, make sure that the pump switch (fig.1.3) is in the 'off' (O) position.
Connect the battery clips to the 12V battery, observing correct polarity (red clamp to +ve terminal,
black clamp to -ve terminal)
4.2.2. Open the security valve (fig.1.2).
4.2.3. Switch the pump switch to the 'on' (I) position.
4.2.4. Unwind sufficient hose and place the nozzle in the receiving tank and pull the trigger (fig.3);
delivery will commence and continue until the trigger is released.
4.2.5. The trigger can be locked in one of three positions by engaging the latch (fig.3) to hold the
trigger open. DO NOT leave the nozzle unattended with the trigger latched open.
4.2.6. Slight pressure on the trigger will release the latch.
4.2.7. When the level in the receiving tank reaches the nozzle, delivery will stop automatically.
4.2.8. When delivery is complete, switch off the pump and close the security valve.
Ensure that hose is wound into its housing on the tank and that the nozzle is secured in its storage place.
4.2.9. DO NOT operate the pump continuously for more than 30 minutes. The duty cycle of the unit is
30 minutes, after which the motor must be left to cool down for a further 30 minutes.
4.2.10. DO NOT run the unit for more than 2-3 minutes with the delivery nozzle closed.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1.
The pump contains no user-servicable parts. Repairs should only be undertaken by competent persons.
5.2.
Check the integrity of all the hose connections periodically. If any leakage is evident, strip the joint and wind PTFE tape around the
male thread.
5.3.
Check all electrical connections and cables for wear and damage. Rectify any faults found.
5.4.
Keep clean, especially the dispenser nozzle. Clean with a damp, soapy cloth. DO NOT use abrasive or solvent cleaners.
6. OPTIONAL COVER
6.1.
The optional cover (part no: DC125) is fitted by inserting the hinge bolts through the holes in the cover and securing into the threaded
brass fittings in the rear top corners of the tank (fig.4).
6.2.
The lock plate is fitted to the threaded fittings on the front of the tank (fig.4).
6.2.
To engage the lock: adjust the clasp by turning around the threaded stem until it just clears the hook on the tongue, ensuring that the
staple is on the right. Place over the lock tongue and push the lock handle over the clasp with the staple protruding through the
slot (fig.5). If required, secure the lock handle by fitting a padlock (not supplied) through the staple.
