Safety Information

WARNING! Electrical wiring should be performed ONLY by a licensed
electrician in compliance with local, state, and national electrical code NEC/ANSI/
NFPA 70, NFPA 30, and NFPA 30A, as appropriate to the intended use of the
pump. Threaded rigid conduit, sealed fittings, and conductor seal should be used
where applicable. The pump must be properly grounded. Improper installation or
use of this pump can result in serious bodily injury, or death!
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!

NEVER smoke near the pump, or use the pump near open flames when
pumping a flammable liquid! Fire can result!

A filter should be used on the pump outlet to ensure no foreign material is
transferred to the fuel tank. We recommend Fill-Rite filters for best results.

Threaded pipe joints and connections must be sealed with the appropriate
sealant or sealant tape to minimize the possibility of leaks.

Storage tanks must be securely anchored to prevent shifting or tipping when
full or empty.

To minimize static electricity build up, use only static wire conductive hose
when pumping flammable fluids, and keep the fill nozzle in contact with the
container being filled during the filling process.

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:
2400, 4400, 600, and SD600 series pumps will reset automatically
when the pump cools down.
1200 & 4200 series pumps must be reset manually to operate again.
Wait until the motor cools down and turn the power switch off to reset.
WARNING! This product shall not be used to transfer fluids into any type of
aircraft.
WARNING! This product is not suited for use with fluids intended for human
consumption or fluids containing water.

Installation

Your Fill-Rite pump is designed to be mounted on a skid tank using the threaded inlet
flange supplied with the pump (see attached diagrams). Your pump features an integral
bypass valve to recirculate the fluid when the pump is operating with the nozzle closed.
WARNING! In Skid Tank applications, be sure the tank is properly secured so it
cannot shift or move whether the tank is empty or full.
CAUTION! Do not use additional check valves or foot valves unless they have a
proper pressure relief valve built into them. Note that additional check valves will
reduce rate of flow.
