• Drain the pump of any remaining liquid after each use.

4. Setup

1. Choose Power Supply: Select your preferred power source.
   • For 4xAA batteries (not included): Open the battery compartment on the pump head and insert four AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
   • For DC 12V cable with battery clips: Connect the red clip to the positive (+) terminal of a 12V battery and the black clip to the negative (-) terminal. Plug the DC connector into the pump body.
   • For Car Cigarette Lighter: Plug the cigarette lighter adapter into your vehicle's 12V outlet and connect the other end to the pump body.
2. Attach Adapter (if needed): If your fuel can opening requires it, screw on one of the provided universal adapters to the pump head for a secure fit.
3. Position Pump: Securely place the pump head onto your fuel can. The built-in clip on the discharge nozzle can be used to secure it to the receiving container's filler neck for hands-free operation.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Insert the suction tube (inlet hose) into the liquid to be transferred. Ensure the liquid covers the motor position for normal operation.
2. Place the discharge hose into the receiving container. Use the built-in clip to secure the nozzle to the container's filler neck.
3. Press the ON button on the pump head to start the transfer. The battery indicator lights will show the remaining power.
4. Monitor the transfer process. The auto-stop sensor will automatically stop the flow when the liquid reaches the sensor in the receiving container.
5. After automatic stopping, or when you wish to stop manually, press the OFF button.
6. Bring the discharge hose up above the tank to drain any excess fuel or liquid back into the supply tank.

7. Auto-Stop Sensor

The pump is equipped with an advanced auto-stop sensor located at the tip of the output nozzle. This sensor automatically detects when the receiving tank is full and stops the fuel flow, preventing spills and overfilling. This feature ensures a clean and safe transfer process.

Important Note:

• The output nozzle must NOT be submerged in the liquid being transferred. If the nozzle is in contact with the fuel, the pump's auto-stop function may activate prematurely.

8. Adapters

The Nitigo Fuel Transfer Pump comes with four universal adapters (2 inch, 2.1 inch, 2.75 inch, and 3.75 inch) to fit most standard North American fuel cans. These adapters ensure a secure, leak-proof connection between the pump and your fuel container, facilitating no-spill siphoning.

9. Maintenance

• After each use, drain any remaining liquid from the pump and hoses.
• Clean the pump body and hoses with a dry, clean cloth.
• Store the pump in the provided storage bag in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Remove batteries if the pump will not be used for an extended period.

10. Troubleshooting

• Pump not starting: Check battery installation and charge level. Ensure power cables are securely connected.
• Pump stops prematurely: Ensure the output nozzle is not submerged in the liquid. Check for any obstructions in the hoses.
• Slow flow rate: Verify that the suction tube is fully submerged in the liquid. Check for kinks or blockages in the hoses.
