• 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.
• 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.

FUEL DISPENSING

• Before connecting to a battery, make sure that the pump switch (fig.5.2) 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).
• Switch the pump switch to the ‘on’ (I) position.
• Unwind sufficient hose and place the nozzle (fig.4) in the receiving tank and pull the trigger (fig.4). Delivery will commence and continue until the trigger is released.
• The trigger can be locked in one of three positions by engaging the latch (fig.4) to hold the trigger open. DO NOT leave the nozzle unattended with the trigger latched open.
• Slight pressure on the trigger will release the latch.
• When the level in the receiving tank reaches the nozzle, delivery will stop automatically.
• When delivery is complete, switch off the pump. Ensure the hose is wound into its housing on the tank and that the nozzle is secured in its storage place.
• 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.
• DO NOT run the unit for more than 2-3 minutes with the delivery nozzle closed.

MAINTENANCE

• The pump contains no user-serviceable parts.
• Repairs should only be undertaken by competent persons.
• 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.
• Check all electrical connections and cables for wear and damage. Rectify any faults found.
• Keep clean, especially the dispenser nozzle.
• Clean with a damp, soapy cloth.
• DO NOT use abrasive or solvent cleaners
