5. Operating Instructions
Follow these steps for safe and effective fluid transfer.
- Pre-Operation Check: Before starting, verify all hose connections are tight, the suction hose is properly submerged, and the discharge nozzle is ready at the receiving container.
- Power On: Locate the ON/OFF switch on the pump's control panel. Flip the switch to the 'ON' (I) position to start the pump.
- Fluid Transfer: The pump will begin to draw fluid from the source and deliver it through the discharge hose and nozzle. Monitor the flow and the integrated meter.
- Monitor Meter: The integrated meter displays the volume of fluid transferred. The 'LITER' display shows the current transfer, while 'TOTAL' shows the cumulative volume.
- Stopping Transfer: Once the desired volume is transferred or the receiving container is full, flip the ON/OFF switch to the 'OFF' (O) position to stop the pump.
- Post-Operation: Remove the nozzle from the receiving container. Allow any residual fluid to drain. Disconnect the power supply.

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your pump.
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the pump and hoses to remove any spills or residue. Do not use harsh chemicals that may damage components.
- Inspect Hoses and Connections: Periodically check hoses for cracks, wear, or damage. Ensure all fittings and clamps remain tight to prevent leaks. Replace worn components as necessary.
- Filter Inspection: If your suction hose includes a filter, inspect it regularly for blockages and clean or replace as needed to maintain optimal flow.
- Storage: When not in use, store the pump in a clean, dry, and protected area, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure all fluid is drained from the pump and hoses before storage.
