Installation
Grounding
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
This unit must be grounded. Before you
operate it, ground the system as
explained in this section. Also, read Fire
and Explosion Hazard on page 3. For
further grounding information, read the
Grounding section in the pump manual
and the agitator manual.
Proper grounding is an essential part of maintaining a
safe system.
To reduce the risk of static sparking, and all electrically
conductive objects or devices in the dispensing area
must be properly grounded. Check your local electrical
code for detailed grounding instructions for your area
and type of equipment.
To ground the dispenser, connect the end of the
ground wire (4) to a true earth ground. See the Parts
Drawing on page 6.
NOTE: This unit is shipped with the ground wire
attached to the grounding strip on the pump and to the
grounding lug on the agitator. The ground wire must
always be attached to these two places during use.
TIPPING HAZARD
This unit should be used only on flat, level
surfaces. Uneven or slanted surfaces could
cause the drum to tip over.
Do not transfer drums with the unit mounted in
the bung hole. When the unit is mounted in the
bung hole, the center of gravity is too high for
stability during transfer and could tip over.
If possible, before you tighten the bung
connection, rotate the unit so the agitator air
motor is as close as possible to the center of
the drum. That will improve the center of
gravity and reduce the tipping hazard.
WARNING
Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
WARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
The equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To reduce the risk of serious
injury from pressurized fluid, accidental spray, or
splashing fluid, follow this procedure whenever you:
D Are instructed to relieve pressure
D Stop dispensing
D Check, clean, or service any system equipment
D Install or clean dispensing nozzles
1. Shut off the air to the pump.
2. Open the dispensing valve to relieve all fluid
pressure, and have a container ready to catch the
drainage.
See the Parts Drawing on page 6.
D Flush the dispenser before first use.
NOTE: The pump was tested with lightweight oil,
which is left in the fluid passages to protect parts. To
avoid contaminating your fluid with oil, flush the
pump with a compatible solvent before using the
equipment.
D You must ensure that the agitator is stopped any
time it is not contained in the drum. See Moving
Parts Hazard on page 3.
D Operate the pump by opening and closing the ball
valve (17). Operate the agitator by adjusting the
needle valve. See the pump manual and the
agitator manual for detailed operating instructions.
NOTE: For stopping the pump and agitator in
emergencies, disconnect the air line from the
quick-disconnect air line fitting (14).
D When you lift the unit from the bung-mounted
position, lift the unit with the aid of an overhead hoist
hooked up to the lift hook (9).
