IMPORTANT INFORMATION
CAUTION
This is a 50:1 ratio high pressure grease pump. Because of the
high pressures developed by this pump, the possibility of fluid
injection into the flesh, or eyes, is a potential hazard.
Never allow any part of the human body to come in front of,
or in direct contact with a material outlet. Never point the
nozzle of the gun at yourself or anyone else.
Never exceed the pressure rating of any component in the
system. Remember, fluid pressure generated is fifty times the air
inlet pressure.
Before operation check hoses for signs of wear, leaks or loose
fittings. Tighten all fluid connections regularly and replace weak or
damaged hose.
If accidental injection should occur, seek immediate emer-
gency medical attention.
Do not use air pressure greater than 1035kPa /150psi / 10.3bar
Do not hit the unit if it fails to operate.
CAUTION
Before attempting any maintenance or repairs of this product,
disconnect air supply then squeeze the trigger on the gun to
release pressure.

Pump assembly to the container with the thumb screws
P8 ASSEMBLY
Your P8 Pump Unit and P8LF Drum Cover / Follower plate are
supplied in separate cartons. You will need the P8LF to fit the P8
Pump to your grease drum, and a PF8 high pressure feeder hose
if connecting the pump to pipework.
If pipework is required, use 10mm (3/8") I/D. or 1/2" I/D high pres-
sure pipe with a working pressure of at least 42 MPa (6000psi).
The system components including hose reels, swivel joints and
hand pieces must all be capable of with standing the high pres-
sures generated by the pump.
1) Position the grease drum adjacent to the air supply and grease
line pipework.
2) Position the follower centrally in the grease drum and hook the
follower handle chain over the edge of the drum.
3) Place the lid on the drum. The weight of the pump will hold the
lid on the drum, there is no need to secure the lid on to the drum.
