OPERATION
INSPECTION BEFORE USING PUMP
Prior to operation or maintenance a visual inspection shall be
made. Check pump system for leaks, worn or missing parts.
Any pump that appears to be damaged in any way, is badly
worn or operates abnormally shall be removed from use until
repairs are made. Contact a factory authorized service center
for repairs.
If overpressurizing of the equipment is believed to have oc-
curred, contact a factory authorized service center for inspec-
tion of the pump.
Annual inspection by a factory authorized service center is
recommended.
To prevent personal injury, perform PRESSURE RELIEF PRO-
CEDURE before and after operating the pump.
To start pump, turn on the main air supply. Slowly open the air
regulator. Regulate air pressure from 20-40 psig and throttle
to prime pump. Open the dispensing valve to allow air to be
purged from the system. Allow pump to cycle until grease
without air pockets flows from dispensing valve, then close
dispensing valve.
After pump is primed, adjust air pressure to achieve a smooth
flow of grease from the dispensing valve. Do not allow pump to
operate when out of material. Pump will accelerate quickly and
run too fast, resulting in costly damage to the pump.
If the pump accelerates quickly or is running too fast, stop it
immediately. Check the grease supply and refill it if
necessary. Prime the pump to remove all air from the system,
or flush the pump and relieve pressure.
In a circulating system, the pump runs continuously and slows
down or speeds up as supply demands, until the air supply is
shut off.
In a direct supply system, with adequate air pressure supplied
to the motor, the pump starts when the gun or dispensing valve
is opened and stalls against pressure when it is closed.
Use the air regulator to control pump speed and grease pres-
sure. Always use the lowest pressure required to achieve the
desired results. Higher pressures will cause pump packings to
wear prematurely.
MAINTENANCE
To prevent personal injury, perform PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE before and after operating the pump and be-
fore any maintenance.
LUBRICATION
An air line filter/regulator/lubricator is recommended for use with
your Lincoln pump to remove harmful dirt and moisture from
your compressor air supply, and to provide automatic air motor
lubrication.
If an air line lubricator is not used, the following procedure should
be performed daily:
A. Disconnect air coupler from air fitting.
B. Fill air coupler with NO. 10 SAE motor oil and reconnect to
air fitting.
C. Operate pump to distribute lubricant.
To reduce the risk of injury from splashing or static sparking
when flushing the pump with solvents, always hold a metal
part of the dispensing valve firmly to the side of a grounded
metal pail and operate pump at lowest possible fluid pres-
sure.
MATERIAL RESTRICTION PREVENTION
Flush the system as required with a compatible solvent to prevent
material buildup when pumping material that dries or hardens.
CORROSION PREVENTION
To prevent water or air corrosion, never leave the pump filled
with water or air. Flush the pump first with a compatible solvent
and then again with mineral spirits or oil based solvent.
