Operation
WARNING
Do not operate pump prior to installing
relief valve. Install relief valve in pump
outlet to ensure pressure remains below
5 000 psi (345 bar). Use only high
pressure components.
Failure to comply may result in death
or serious personal injury.
Prime pump
1 Remove pump outlet line
from outlet port (55).
NOTE
Never allow pump to run dry of
lubricant. Dry pump quickly speeds up,
creating friction heat that can damage
seals. Monitor supply lubricant level and
refill when necessary.
Failure to comply may result in
damage to equipment.
2 With pump in full container of lubricant,
energize pump.
3 Purge air from pump.
4 Verify lubricant is flowing evenly
from pump.
5 Stop pump.
6 Attach pump outlet line to port (55).
Set pump speed
1 Remove speed adjustment hex socket head
(3 mm) cover screw (
Fig. 4).
†
2 Adjust screw counter-clockwise to
reduce pump speed.
3 Install speed adjustment hex socket head
(3 mm) cover screw.
NOTE
Do not change pump settings until after
start up procedure. Motor used in
12 V
FlowMaster II pump is
equipped with built in speed control,
factory set to maximum setting.
Failure to comply may result in
damage to pump.
NOTE
Do not reduce motor speed below
200 rpm. Speed adjustment screw has
no stop and total of 30 turns.
Refer to Electric pump performance
specifications, page 6 for speed
recommendations.

Crankcase oil service interval
• Check oil level every 750 hours of
operation, or monthly.
• Change oil every 2 000 hours of operation
or annually.
• Use SAE 10W30 motor oil in all units used
in an ambient temperature of
–40 to 150 °F (–40 to 65°C). For ambient
temperatures of –70 to 50 °F
(–56 to 10 °C) , use Mobil Aero HFA low
temperature oil.
• Oil level should be at indicating dot on
dipstick (middle of crankshaft).
• Use 10W30 motor oil 15 oz (0.44 l).
DANGER
Do not exceed maximum rated outlet
pressure. Pumps are not equipped with
high pressure shut off valve.
Failure to comply will result in
