Grounding
Proper grounding is an essential part of maintaining a safe system.
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump. Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equipment. Be sure to ground this equipment:
DPump: Use a ground wire and clamp as shown in Fig. 2.
DAir and Fluid hoses: Use only electrically conduc- tive hoses.
DAir compressor: Follow the manufacturer’s recom- mendations.
DFluid supply container: Follow the local code.
DObject being lubricated: Follow the local code.
DTo maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure, always hold a metal part of the valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the valve.
To ground the pump, remove the ground screw (Z) and insert through the eye of the ring terminal at end of the ground wire (Y). Fasten the ground screw back onto the pump and tighten securely. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true earth ground. See Fig. 2. To order a ground wire and clamp, order Part No. 222011.
