4. Take the Bung Nut
& fasten it onto
the 2” opening
on the Drum/
Tank. Bung Nut
has a large 2”
thread & a small
1-1/2” thread. 2”
thread goes into
the drum/ tank,
whereas the 1-1/2” thread is for connecting bung to the pump
5. In case the Bung Nut does not t onto your drum/ tank, use a
Drum Bung Converter. Note that bung supplied with the pump
has 2” Pipe threads
Ensure tank / drum being used is clean & free of welding slag.
Ensure the tank is vented to allow air into the tank as fuel is
being pumped out. Failure to provide a vent will cause priming
problems
1. Wrap around PTFE tape on the following male threaded joints.
This will ensure a leak-proof connection
• Male Threads on the Elbow
• Male Threads on the Fitting ends of the Hose
• Male threads between the 2 Suction Tube parts
• Male threads on the Suction tube end that ts into the
pump inlet
2. Assemble the
Nozzle Holder with
the pump. In order
to do so, open the
2 bolts on top of
the On / O Switch.
Remove the bolts
& re-attach along
with the nozzle
holder
ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
7. Lift the Pump from the
motor. Be careful as the
assembly is heavy. Insert
suction tube into the drum
through the 2” opening on
the drum. Use the Swivel
Nut mounted at the pump
inlet to fasten onto the
Bung Nut. Hand tighten
8. Take the Fuel being dispensed & pour it into the pump outlet,
until completely lled. This will ensure that the gear chamber
stays lubricated & makes it easier for the pump to prime
3. Now Fasten the
Elbow into the
pump outlet &
hand tighten. Once
you can no longer
hand tighten, take
a wrench & tighten
the elbow by
about ½ a turn.

9. Take the Hose
Assembly & connect
the threaded end
onto the Elbow at
the pump outlet.
Hose has a hex
nut at the threaded
end which can be
tightened to the
elbow using a wrench
6. Connect the two halves of the Suction Tube. Suction tube
is designed for use with tanks / drums which are 36” (914
10. Connect the other end of the Hose to the Fuel Control Nozzle
11. Connect Power cord to source of power & switch it ON
mm) deep & has a total
connected length of 34”
(865 mm). In case you
are installing the pump
on a tank that is deeper,
you would have to get a
standard 1” dia. tube with
1” NPT threads on one
end. Suction tubes longer
than 5’ (1.52 m) require a
foot valve (not provided)
at the bottom of the tube
to prevent loss of prime.
For shallower drums, cut
the suction tube to the
desired length. Ensure that
there is about 2” (50 mm)
gap between the bottom
of the tank/drum & inlet of
the suction tube allowing
for easy entry of fuel into
the tube. Now connect the
Suction Tube to the pump
inlet. Hand tighten
