Operation
Fill Reservoir
(For these instructions see FIG. 4, page 8.)
1.Connect lubricant supply hose from remote filling station pump to Fill Port (K).
2.Connect High Pressure Lubricant Supply Line (G) to Vent Valve (U) outlet.
3.Remove plug from Overflow Port (L).
4.Slowly turn on supply lubricant until level of lubricant reaches overflow port.
• For systems with a follow plate, fill until the fol- low plate reaches the overflow port.
•Refer to Automatic Lubrication System Design Guidelines Manual 309015 for instructions on priming remaining system lubricant lines and further operating instructions.
5.Set hydraulic pressure to pump at lowest pressure needed (see Technical Data, page 18).
6.Set hydraulic flow rate to pump at lowest rate needed to get desired results.
7.Read and follow instructions supplied with each system component.
With a primed pump and sufficient hydraulic supply, the pump starts when the timer activates the sole- noid valve. The pump stops when the timer deacti- vates the solenoid valve.
CAUTION
Never allow pump to run dry of the fluid being pumped. A dry pump will quickly accelerate to a high speed, possibly damaging the pump. If your pump accelerates quickly, or is running too fast, stop the pump immediately and check the fluid supply.
COMPONENT RUPTURE HAZARD
The maximum working pressure of each component in the system may not be the same. To reduce the risk of overpressurizing any component in the system, be sure you know the maximum working pressure of each component. Never exceed the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated component in the system. Overpressurizing any component can result in rupture, fire, explosion, property damage and serious injury.
Regulate hydraulic pressure to the pump so that no fluid line, component or accessory is over pressurized.
Shutdown
(For these instructions, see FIG. 4, page 8.)
1.For normal system shut down, disconnect power to Lubricator Controller (J) by turning off the ignition switch.
2.Turn of hydraulic supply by closing the Ball Valve (AA).
