Assembly, regulated models, are as follows:
2.5.2.1 Startup for Regulated Models. Perform the following procedure to start the equipment.
WARNING
·
To prevent rolling or sliding, do not work on equipment that is not securely
stabilized. Ensure both wheels are secure.
·
Do not smoke or use open flames around fuel. Ensure container is used to
catch fuel and fuel is disposed of properly.
·
Failure to obey this warning may result in personnel injury or death.
a.
Open vent valve (1, figure 2-7) and ensure all suction valves (2) and discharge valves (3) are closed.
WARNING
·
Do not smoke or use open flames around fuel. Ensure container is used to
catch fuel and fuel is disposed of properly. Failure to obey this warning may
result in personnel injury or death.
·
Do not operate pump before replacing priming port cap. Failure to replace
priming port cap and locking securely may result in personal injury.
b.
Prime the engine fuel system.
CAUTION
·
Do not use excessive force when priming the primer pump (1, figure 2-7.1).
Use of excessive force could result in damage to the gasket (2, figure 2-7.1)
and seat (3, figure 2-7.1) of the water separator (4, figure 2-7.1).
·
Do not use excessive force when turning the vent plug (5, figure 2-7.1). Use of
excessive force could result in damage to the o-ring (6, figure 2-7.1) and ball (7,
figure 2-7.1).
(1) Loosen vent plug (5 figure 2-7.1) on water separator (4, figure 2-7.1) and turn knob on primer pump (1, figure
2-7.1) counterclockwise. Prime the water separator by pulling up and pushing down on the knob until fuel purges at
the vent plug. Close the vent plug and screw knob on primer pump into head on water separator.
(2) Check pump fuel level by carefully opening camlock levers on priming port cap (4, figure 2-7) and raising port cap
slightly to see if fuel is discharged from priming port. If fuel is discharged from priming port, quickly install port cap
and place camlock levers in locked position. If fuel is not discharged, remove port cap, add clean liquid of the type to
be pumped, until the fuel level reaches the top of the priming port.
c.
Install priming port cap (4, figure 2-7) and place camlock levers in locked position.
d.
Place pressure controller manual speed control (5, figure 2-7) to 'IDLE' position.
e.
Place pressure controller mode selector (6, figure 2-7) to 'START' position.
