Installation Instructions

Installation of the Giant Industries, Inc., pump is not a complicated procedure, but there are some basic steps common to all pumps. The following information is to be considered as a general outline for installation. If you have unique requirements, please contact Giant Industries, Inc. or your local distributor for assistance.

1.The pump should be installed flat on a base to a maximum of a 15 degree angle of inclination to ensure optimum lubrication.

2.The inlet to the pump should be sized for the flow rate of the pump with no unnecessary restrictions that can cause cavitation. Teflon tape should be used to seal all joints. If pumps are to be operated at

temperatures in excess of 2200 F, it is important to insure a positive head to the pump to prevent cavita- tion. (See chart below)

3.The discharge plumbing from the pump should be properly sized to the flow rate to prevent line pres- sure loss to the work area. It is essential to provide a safety bypass valve between the pump and the work area to protect the pump from pressure spikes in the event of a blockage or the use of a shut-off

gun.

4.Use of a dampener is necessary to minimize pulsation at drive elements, plumbing, connec- tions, and other system areas. The use of a dampener with Giant Industries, Inc. pumps is optional, although recommended by Giant Industries, Inc. to further reduce system pulsa- tion. Dampeners can also reduce the severity of pressure spikes that occur in systems using a shut-off gun. A dampener must be positioned downstream from the unloader.

5.Crankshaft rotation on Giant Industries, Inc. pumps should be made in the direction desig- nated by the arrows on the pump crankcase. Reverse rotation may be safely achieved by following a few guidelines available upon request from Giant Industries, Inc. Required horsepower for system operation can be obtained from the chart on page 3.

6.Before beginning operation of your pumping system, remember: Check that the crankcase and seal areas have been properly lubricated per recommended schedules. Do not run the pump dry for extended periods of time. Cavitation will result in severe damage. Always remember to check that all plumbing valves are open and that pumped media can flow freely to the inlet of the pump.

Finally, remember that high pressure operation in a pump system has many advan- tages. But, if it is used carelessly

and without regard to its potential hazard, it can cause serious injury.

IMPORTANT OPERATING CONDITIONS

Failure to comply with any of these conditions invalidates the warranty.

1.Prior to initial operation, add oil to the crankcase so that oil level is between the two lines on the oil dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL. Industrial Grade 90 wt. oil may be used. Crankcase oil should be changed after the first 50 hours of operation, then at regular intervals of 500 hours or less depending on operating conditions.

2.Pump operation must not exceed rated

pressure, volume, or RPM. A pressure relief device must be installed in the discharge of the system.

3.Acids, alkalines, or abrasive fluids cannot be pumped unless approval in writing is obtained before operation from Giant Industries, Inc.

4.Run the pump dry approximately 10 seconds to drain the water before exposure to freezing temperatures.

P46HT specifications

The Giant P46HT is a remarkable addition to the realm of high-performance mountain bikes, designed specifically to cater to the demands of avid riders and outdoor enthusiasts. This cutting-edge bike is built for tackling rugged terrains while ensuring the utmost comfort and control, making it an ideal choice for both casual riders and seasoned professionals.

At the heart of the Giant P46HT’s functionality is its advanced frame geometry. The lightweight aluminum frame provides an optimal blend of strength and responsiveness, allowing riders to navigate challenging trails with ease. The geometry is strategically designed to enhance stability during descents and improve agility while cornering, giving athletes the confidence to push their limits.

One of the standout features of the P46HT is its suspension technology. Equipped with a front suspension fork that boasts a significant travel distance, it effectively absorbs shocks from uneven surfaces, ensuring a smoother ride. This capability ultimately contributes to better traction and control, particularly on technical trails. The rear of the bike features a robust design that allows for efficient power transfer, enhancing overall ride efficiency.

The P46HT also incorporates cutting-edge tire technology. Its wide tires provide exceptional grip and traction, enabling riders to maintain control on loose gravel, mud, and rocky terrains. These tires, combined with the bike's well-engineered clearance, reduce the risk of mud accumulation, enhancing performance in wet conditions.

The drivetrain on the Giant P46HT is engineered for seamless shifting, utilizing a high-quality groupset that ensures smooth transitions between gears. This feature allows for quick adjustments in response to varying terrain, making it easier to maintain optimal cadence and speed.

Another highlight of the P46HT is its braking system. Featuring hydraulic disc brakes, this bike guarantees powerful stopping performance in all weather conditions. Riders can rely on consistent and precise braking, which is crucial for navigating steep descents or tricky corners.

Further enhancing the riding experience is the bike's ergonomic design. Components such as the saddle and handlebars are designed to provide maximum comfort, reducing fatigue during long rides.

In summary, the Giant P46HT stands out due to its combination of innovative technologies, robust construction, and rider-focused design features. Whether conquering steep hills or cruising through scenic trails, the P46HT is engineered to deliver an unparalleled mountain biking experience.
