General Safety Regulations
When the pump is connected to the compressed air supply:
1. The compressed air must be filtered to avoid dust into the pump.
2. The maximum compressed air pressure must not exceed 0.8Mpa.
3. To deliver grease, press the knob on the delivery nozzle. Delivery stops when the knob is released but the whole
system remains under pressure.
4. Position the nozzle so that the circuit can not open accidentally. Otherwise grease could leak onto the ground.
5. Never point the nozzle at people.
6. Press the nozzle knob only after you are sure that the nozzle is in the right place so that the grease doesn't leak
onto the ground.
7. Always cut off the air supply after use so that grease can not leak out in case one of the pump's components break.
8. Use only original spare parts if the pump has to be repaired or its components have to be replaced.
9. Ensure the tightness of all joints and screwed unions.
10. When not loading, cut off compressed air to stop pump.
11. Do not use the pump near open flames. Do not smoke during this operation.
12. Wear oil-proof gloves.
13. The pump can be used only to deliver grease. Do not use the pump for any other purpose.
How To Use
Pump Installation
1. When the pump is applied to a high viscosity grease, or used in low temperature, a grease follower plate is
recommended to avoid air pockets and to get the most out of your grease. The follower plate, which is pulled
towards the bottom of the drum by suction pressure produced by the air operated pump, compress the grease,
preventing the formation of air pockets which may cause a blockage in delivery. And the follower plate will always
keep the grease clean to preserve its characteristics and also enable the grease to be collected from the bottom
of the drum to avoid waste.
2. Loosen the bung adaptor or wall bracket adaptor star nut. Slide the bung adaptor off of the suction tube.
3. Carefully place the pump through the bung adaptor and the follower plate. Then tighten the star nut firmly in order
to attach the pump.
Connection of the Air Inlet Line
1. Air inlet connection is 1/4'' quick plug in all versions.
2. Compressed air connection (to be supplied by the customer) should be done using suitable tubes.
3. A compressed air treatment unit (filter and regulator) is recommended to be attached to the pump.
In order to improve the efficiency of the pump, the installation of a lubricator is also recommended.
Connection of the Regulator
The lubricator (I) must be placed as close as possible to the air inlet, followed
by the pressure regulator (II) and finally, the filter (III). In the case of pumps
not installed on wall support it is very important to equip the pump's air inlet
with an adaptor for quick coupling and the air inlet hose with a quick connector.
