in compliance with local, state, and national electrical code NEC/ANSI/NFPA 70,
NFPA30, and NFPA 30A, as appropriate to the intended use of the pump.
Threaded rigid conduit, sealed fittings, and conductor seal should be used. The
pump must be properly grounded. Improper installation or use of this pump can
result in serious bodily injury, or death!
WARNING! To insure safe and proper operation of your equipment, it is critical to
read and adhere to all of the following safety warnings and precautions. Improper
installation or use of this product can cause serious bodily injury or death!
1. NEVER smoke near the pump, or use the pump near open flames when
pumping a flammable liquid! Fire can result!
2. A Fill-Rite Filter should be used on the pump outlet to insure no foreign
material is transferred to the fuel tank.
3. Threaded pipe joints and connections should be sealed with the appropriate
sealant or sealant tape to minimize the possibility of leaks.
4. Storage tanks should be securely anchored to prevent shifting or tipping
when full or empty.
5. To minimize static electricity build up, use only static wire conductive hose
when pumping flammable fluids, and keep the fill nozzle in contact with the
container being filled during the filling process.
6. The pump motor is equipped with thermal overload protection; if overheated,
the motor will shut off to prevent damage to the windings. If this happens,
TURN THE PUMP OFF! When the motor cools, it will restart without
warning if the power is on.

Installation

The Fill-Rite series 300V pump is designed to offer several different mounting configurations.
It can be mounted on a skid tank using the tank adapter supplied with the pump (see attached
diagrams), direct mounted to the top of an underground tank, or mounted on a concrete island
using an optional pedestal adapter (available through your Fill-Rite distributor). Regardless of
mounting style, all tanks must be properly vented, and skid tank installations should employ
an anti-siphon device.
The series 300V pump has a built in check valve with pressure relief to reduce unsafe excess
pressure from thermal expansion of the fluid. It also features an integral bypass valve to help
minimize wear when the pump is operating with the nozzle closed.
WARNING! In "Skid Tank" applications, be sure the tank is properly secured so it
cannot shift or move when the tank is empty or full.
