WARNING! Installations must comply with all local, state, and national fire
codes, as appropriate to the intended use of the pump.
CAUTION! A pressure retaining fill cap can be used to reduce fuel loss through
evaporation, but note that it may reduce the flow rate.
CAUTION! Do not use additional check valves or foot valves unless they have a
proper pressure relief valve built into them. Note that additional check valves will
reduce rate of flow.
