Instructions / Assembly
WARNING! To ensure safe and proper operation of your equipment, it is critical to read and adhere to all of the
following safety warnings and precautions.
• Improper installation or use of this product can cause serious bodily injury or death!
• Maintaining the purity of Diesel Exhaust Fluid is critical; it is imperative once the system is assembled, it
must remain sealed to insure the integrity of the uid. Breaking the seal on the system can lead to uid
contamination.
• After dispensing DEF be certain to drain all the uid from the nozzle, making sure it is pointing downward
with the nozzle tip submerged in water when stored in the nozzle boot. DEF remaining in the nozzle tip that
is exposed to air will crystallize and can plug the nozzle.
• DO NOT lay the dispensing nozzle on the ground or any surface that may contaminate the nozzle tip as
this can compromise the purity of the DEF.
• Inlet and outlet threads are BSPP style and seals against O-rings, so no special sealant is required.
• Storage tanks must be securely anchored to prevent shifting or tipping when full or empty.
• On Fill-Rite DEF pumps equipped with AC motors, the pump motor is equipped with thermal overload
protection. If overheated, the motor will shut off to prevent damage to the windings. If this happens, TURN
THE PUMP OFF! When the motor cools, it will restart without warning if the power is on.

Installation
If your pump comes as part of a system, regardless of whether it is AC or DC powered, it will be pre-mounted to either
a IBC / tote mount bracket or a drum mounting bracket. Both systems are designed for quick mounting and dismounting
from either IBC’s and totes, or standard drums from 30 - 55 gallons. Both systems provide for secure attachment, hose
and nozzle storage, and simple uid connection.
Pump only installations can be securely mounted using the foot bracket on the bottom of the pump. Dimensions for the
mounting holes are viewed on page 16.
