Installation
Grounding
To ground the pump (FIG. 2):
1. Remove the ground screw (Z) located on the side of
the pump base.
2. Insert the ground screw (Z) through the eye of the
ring terminal (W) located at the end of the ground
wire (Y).
3. Fasten the ground screw (Z) back onto the back of
the pump and tighten the screw securely.
4. Connect the other end of the ground wire (Y) to a
true earth ground.
Mount the Pump
Install the pump in a location that will adequately sup-
port the weight of the pump when it is filled with lubri-
cant and also provides easy operator access to the
pump air controls. The pump must be mounted in a ver-
tical position with the reservoir up. See Technical
Specifications, page 29 for pump weight information
and the Dimensions and Mounting Layout, page 28.
Low Level Models Only
DIN Connector
Connection is made to PINS 1 and 3 of the DIN Field
Wire-able Connector. See FIG. 3.
Grounding is necessary when voltages above 30
VAC or 42 VDC are used for the low level switch or an
air valved is attached to the pump. Improper ground-
ing can cause electric shock. Grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current in the event of malfunction or
breakdown.
FIG. 2
Mount the pump securely so that it cannot move
around during operation. Failure to do so could result
in injury or equipment damage.

Air and Fluid Line Accessories
Refer to FIG. 1, page 6, for the following instruction.
Install the air line accessories in the order shown in FIG.
1, page 6.
Bleed-type master air valve (F): Required in the sys-
tem to relieve air trapped between it and the pump.
Air line filter (B1): Removes harmful dirt and moisture
from compressed air supply.
Pump air regulator (B2): To control pump speed and
outlet pressure. Locate it close to the pump.
1. Install a bleed-type master air valve (F) to relieve air
trapped between it and the pump. Install the valve
in a location that is easily accessible from the pump
and located downstream of the air regulator.
2. Install an air line filter (B1) to remove harmful dirt
and contaminants from the compressed air supply.
3. Install the air regulator (B2) to control pressure.
4. Install an air line lubricator (B3) to lubricate the air
cylinder.
5. Install the (3-way) air solenoid valve (C) for control
of the pump forward and return strokes.
To use the air regulator reading to determine the fluid
output pressure, multiply the ratio of the pump (28:1)
by the air pressure shown on the regulator gauge or
see Table 1: Lubricant Output and Pressure - US
PSI or Table 2: Lubricant Output and Pressure -
Metric MPa (bar), provided on page 13.
Limit the air to the pump so that no air line or fluid line
component or accessory is over pressurized.
Air Supply Lines (U)
1. Install two air supply lines (U) between the air sole-
noid outlets (C) and the pump (D) as shown in
FIG. 1, page 6.
2. Install an air supply line (U) between the air solenoid
valve inlet (C) and the Filter/Regulator/Lubricator
Assembly (B) as shown in FIG. 1, page 6.
Fill Reservoir
1. Open the oil fill cap (oc) located on the top of the
reservoir.
NOTE: A strainer is installed at the oil fill cap (oc) to pre-
vent contamination of the lubricant with foreign materi-
als (FIG. 4).
a. Inspect the strainer before filling the reservoir.
b. When needed, remove the strainer and clean
thoroughly.
c. If removed in Step b, install the strainer prior to
adding lubricant.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpect-
edly which could result in serious injury from moving
parts or splashing.
NOTICE
Do not mount the air accessories directly on the
solenoid valve air inlet. The air inlet and fittings are
not strong enough to support the accessories and
may break. Provide a bracket on which to mount the
accessories.
The maximum working pressure of each
component in the system may not be the same.
To reduce the risk of over-pressurizing any part of
your system, know the maximum working
pressure rating of each component and its
connected components. Never exceed the
maximum working pressure of the lowest rated
components connected to a particular pump. FIG. 4

2. Slowly add oil (ol) until the reservoir is filled to
capacity (FIG. 5).
NOTE: Do not fill the reservoir too quickly and overflow
the reservoir capacity.
3. Close the oil fill cover (oc) to prevent contamination
and spillage (FIG. 5).
Prime
NOTE:
• Prime the pump before connecting the outlet to
supply line (G).
• Before priming the pump, the reservoir must be
filled with lubricant. See Fill Reservoir, page 8.
Run the pump until oil (ol), free of air, comes out of the
pump outlet (E). See Operation, page 11.
• It may take up to 20 the pump strokes to expel the
air from the pump and deliver a continuous flow of
oil. This depends upon the viscosity of the lubricant
and temperature.
• Allow 5 seconds ON time for the forward stroke and
5 seconds OFF time for the return stroke.
Supply Lines
1. Prime the pump until oil (ol) comes out of the pump
outlet (E).
2. Connect the supply line (G) to the pump outlet (E).
3. If there are multiple pumps on the air line, close the
air regulators and bleed-type master air valves to all
but one the pumps. If there is only one pump, open
its air regulator and bleed-type master air valve.
4. Open the master air valve from the compressor.
5. Set the air pressure to each pump at the lowest
pressure needed to get the desired results. See
Recommended Pressure provided in Table 1:
Lubricant Output and Pressure - US or Table 2:
Lubricant Output and Pressure - Metric provided
on page 13.
Feeder Lines (S)
Fill each feeder line (S) with lubricant prior to connect-
ing lines to the injector outlet.
Injectors
1. Check each injector for proper operation. The injec-
tor stem should move when lubricant is discharged.
2. Adjust the injector output if needed to ensure that
the output volume discharged is sufficient.

Air Lock Procedure
Refer to FIG. 1, page 6, for the following instruction.
An air lock occurs when a bubble or pocket of air pre-
vents the normal flow of the lubricant.
If an air lock occurs:
1. Refill the reservoir to the full level (Fill Reservoir,
page 8).
2. Relieve pressure following the Pressure Relief
Procedure, page 11.
3. Disconnect the lubricant supply line (G) from the
pump outlet (E) (FIG. 6).
4. Open the bleed-type master air valve (F, page 6).
5. Run the pump a few strokes until oil, free of air,
comes out of the pump outlet (E) (FIG. 6).
• It may take up to 20 the pump strokes to expel the
air from the pump and deliver a continuous flow of
oil. This depends upon the viscosity of the lubricant
and temperature.
• Allow a minimum of 5 seconds ON time for the for-
ward stroke and 5 seconds OFF time for the return
stroke.
6. Connect the pump outlet (E) to the lubrication line
(G) (FIG. 7).
NOTICE
Running the pump dry will cause an air lock. To pre-
vent an air lock, do not run the pump without lubricant.
Always refill the pump before it is empty.
