FOR WARRANTY REGISTRATION CONTACT DISCOUNT-EQUIPMENT
REMEMBER THESE CAUTIONS
1. Check all fluid levels prior to operating pump.
2. Use a sound 3/8" or larger outlet hose rated for at least 2000 psi.
3. DO NOT run dry or pump chlorine thru unit, if water or chlorinated water has
been ran thru the unit, you must immediately flush system with anti-freeze to
neutralize chlorine and prevent rust or corrosion damage.
4. Protect the pump from freezing, FLUSH with anti-freeze.
BEFORE USING ST-312:
1. Check oil level in engine, use 10W30. Unleaded gasoline.
2. Visually inspect components and all aspects of unit; loose fittings, hoses for
rips or tears, gauge set on zero, and overall operating condition.
OPERATING THE PUMP:
1. Fill the tank with fluid (designed for use with biodegradable anti-freeze).
2. Connect the high pressure outlet hose provided, to the outlet port on unit
located down line from pressure gauge.
3. Connect hose to shoring ram or device.
4. Start the engine.
5. Turn off the Bleed ballvalve that is located to the right of the gauge, closing
the system from running in bypass, allowing pressure to build.
6. Control handle with black knob on valve; push handle forward to engage valve and
pressure will begin to build. Handle will lock forward and continue to build
pressure up to around 600 PSI. This is a valve with a detent-pin, after 600 PSI
you will need to manually hold the handle forward allowing pressure to continue
to build. This is a built in safety feature, to prevent damage from over
pressurizing, or personal injury. Valve is set to a maximum of 1200 PSI, at
which time the unit will kick into bypass and fluid will be recirculated back to
reservoir tank.
7. Once desired pressure is met, pull control handle back into neutral position,
there is an inline one-way checkvalve to prevent pressure from bleeding off or
back into the unit. Close or disconnect hose from shoring device. At this time
open bleedvalve and relieve fluid in hose still under pressure back into
reservoir tank.
8. Repeat steps as necessary; remember when shutting down the unit or when moving
hose between devices to open bleedvalve and relieve pressure from hose. Not
doing so will stop you from being able to get the hose quick release to actually
disconnect.
