1. When unpacking meter, check for shipping
damage. Report any shipping damage to
delivering carrier immediately.
2. To install meter on pump, apply PTFE tape
or pipe sealer to 3/4 in. npt nipple (20) and
screw into meter inlet port. Apply PTFE
tape or pipe sealant to opposite end of nip-
ple and screw nipple into pump outlet port
by turning the meter assembly clockwise.
Do not overtighten.
3. The meter is shipped with the counter
assembly positioned so the meter outlet
port is in the straight down position, with
the hose out the bottom of the meter. To
locate the hose on the sides or top, position
the meter as desired (see step 2 above).
To rotate the counter assembly (16), see
steps 2-3 under Meter Assembly and Dis-
assembly, page 5. Rotate the counter
assembly so that the number wheels are
horizontal. To reassemble meter, install
parts in reverse order, making sure all seals
are in place.
4. Apply PTFE tape or sealant to all threaded
joints, then install hose in meter outlet port.
Meter Calibration
The meter is factory calibrated for use with die-
sel fuel. To recalibrate meter for different fluids,
or to recalibrate meter after service work has
been performed, use the following procedure.
See Parts, page 8.
1. Operate the pump to fill the meter, hose,
and system with fluid. Make sure all air is
out of system.
2. Reset counter to 000 by turning the reset
knob (9) counterclockwise.
3. Fill a measured container to the 5 gallon
mark (19.0 liters).
4. Note meter reading. If reading is less than
5.0 gallons (19.0 liters), turn adjustment
screw (18) clockwise. If meter reading is
more than 5.0 gallons (19.0 liters), turn
screw (18) counterclockwise. Repeat above
procedure until counter reading agrees with
measured amount of fluid.
Operation
The 260405 registers the fluid in gallons. The
top (larger) number wheel can be reset to zero
by turning the reset knob (9) counterclockwise.
The bottom (smaller) number wheels are a
totalizing counter and cannot be reset. The
resettable counter registers up to 99.9 gallons.
The totalizer registers up to 9999.9 gallons.
The 260414 registers the fluid in liters. The
operation of the 260414 is the same as the
260405. The resettable counter registers up to
99.9 liters. The totalizer registers up to 9999.9
liters.
