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.

Ground the following equipment:

•Pump: Use a ground wire and clamp as shown in FIG. 1.

•Fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive hoses.

•Air compressor: Follow the manufacturer’s recom- mendations.

•Fluid supply container: Follow the local code.

•To 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. 1. To order a ground wire and clamp, order Part No. 222011.

Mounting

Mount the pump securely so that it cannot move around during operation. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.

1.Plan the mounting layout for easy operator access to the pump air controls, sufficient room to change drums and a secure mounting platform.

2.If using a follow plate (H), remove the drum cover. Scoop the material to the center of the drum to make the surface convex. Place the plate on the material. Guide the pump foot valve through the plate.

3.Mount the pump to the drum cover or other suitable mounting device.

4.Install a pump elevator for easier changing of drums,
