MACHINE TOOL COOLANT PUMP ASSEMBLY
1. Tools required (MCT-10 only): screwdrivers; one small Phillips and one medium straight
blade; 1/4" socket with drive; and a roll of teflon tape.
2. Unpack MACHINE TOOL COOLANT from the carton. Check the parts included with the
parts diagram on the back of this sheet. For the MCT-10: remove chip collector and tank
cover from tank by removing the 4 holding screws. Save these screws for later use.
3. Assembly:
3-A.1 For MCT-10: Remove wrapping from package and take out the 6" long pipe nipple
(there will be a coupling attached to one end). Attach the end of the nipple with the
coupling to the 1/2" NPT discharge of the pump. Be sure to wrap one layer of teflon
tape around the pipe threads and hand tighten only. NOTE: If 5-MSP pump is used
for pumping, attach adaptor 941023 to the garden hose adaptor supplied with the
pump attached to the pump discharge.
3-A.2 Mount top of 3E or 4E pump to the bracket on the underside of tank cover with
screws provided. Hand tighten screws into the pump. Front of pump (3E or 4E)
must face the closest end of the tank. Force power cord through the hole with the
rubber grommet. NOTE: If 5-MSP is used, pump will rest on bottom of tank, it is not
fastened to the tank cover like the 3E or 4E pumps.
3-A.3 Install tank cover back onto tank, use 4 screws to secure the cover (torque 25-30
inch-pounds).
3-A.4 Place chip collector into tank. The louvers must face away from the pump end of
the tank. Locate detector in chip collector with bend up against the divider and de-
tector centered in the half of the chip collector without the louvers at the end. Refer
to illustration on back cover of this instruction sheet for location.
3-A.5 Attach the rubber coolant hose onto the nipple (use teflon tape on threads). Hand
tighten only. Attach shutoff valve and flexible nozzle onto coolant hose (use teflon
tape to seal all pipe threads).
3-A.6 Your MACHINE TOOL COOLANT is now ready for operation. If any leakage oc-
curs, tighten the leaking connections. If further problems develop contact your
nearest LITTLE GIANT distributor.
3-B.1 For MCT-5P: Determine what size pump you will need. Pumps will either have 1/2"
MNPT discharge or 1/4" MNPT discharge. For pumps with 1/2" MNPT discharge use
the 1/2" FNPT x 1/2" I.D. hose adaptor to discharge. Slip the 1/2" x 6’ hose onto dis-
charge the pump (or adapter).
3-B.2 Place pump in one end of plastic tank. Insert baffle in middle of tank.
3-B.3 Push cord on pump through one hole in the clear cover and push hose through the
other hole. Install cover onto tank.
3-B.4 Assemble nozzle-valve. Install flexible nozzle to plastic reducer then install plastic
reducer onto valve (hand tighten only). Install barbed 1/2" hose x 3/8" NPT adaptor
to valve. Slip 1/2" I.D. hose onto barbed adaptor.
3-B.5 Place chip collector screen into hole on clear cover.
3-B.6 Your MACHINE TOOL COOLANT is now ready for operation. If any leakage oc-
curs, tighten fittings. If further problems result, please contact one of the autho-
rized LITTLE GIANT distributors in your area.
MAINTENANCE
1. Never let sludge or excessive chips build up around pump. Periodically clear out the chip
collector and any sludge that may accumulate in the bottom of the tank. The chip collector
is designed to filter out abrasive media that may damage the pump. Baffles are used to
aid in the filtering of sludge chips and will clean the coolant oil prior to being pumped.
2. See pump instructions for cleaning and servicing the pump.
3. Never operate MACHINE TOOL COOLANT without chip collector. Chips that get
pumped through the pump head can damage the seal.
PUMP SELECTION
See chart below for pump selection and performance. Check pump materials of con-
struction for chemical resistance of pump against the cutting oil you plan to use. Do not use
cutting oil that may attack the materials used in the pump. Do not use cutting oils with viscos-
ities greater than the pump can handle. The smaller LITTLE GIANT pumps that are used for
the MCT-5P cannot pump 300 SSU cutting oil efficiently. Pumping oil of this viscosity can
cause premature failure of the pump due to over-heating.
