INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

4. Use of a dampener is necessary to minimize

pulsation at drive elements, plumbing, connec-

tions, and other system areas. The use of a

dampener with Giant Industries, Inc. pumps is

optional, although recommended by Giant

Industries, Inc. to further reduce system pulsa-

tion. Dampeners can also reduce the severity of

pressure spikes that occur in systems using a

shut-off gun. A dampener must be positioned

downstream from the unloader.

5. Crankshaft rotation on Giant Industries, Inc.

pumps should be made in the direction desig-

nated by the arrows on the pump crankcase.

Reverse rotation may be safely achieved by

following a few guidelines available upon request

from Giant Industries, Inc. Required horsepower

for system operation can be obtained from the

charts on pages 3-6.

6. Before beginning operation of your pumping

system, remember: Check that the crankcase

and seal areas have been properly lubricated per

recommended schedules. Do not run the pump

dry for extended periods of time. Cavitation will

result in severe damage. Always remember to

check that all plumbing valves are open and that

pumped media can flow freely to the inlet of the

pump.

IMPORTANT OPERATING CONDITIONS

Failure to comply with any of these conditions invalidates the warranty.

2. Pump operation must not exceed rated

pressure, volume, or RPM.

A pressure relief

device must be installed in the discharge of the

system.

3. Acids, alkalines, or abrasive fluids cannot be

pumped unless approval in writing is obtained

before operation from Giant Industries, Inc.

4. Run the pump dry approximately 10 seconds

to drain the water before exposure to freezing

temperatures.

1. Prior to initial operation, add oil to the crank-

case so that oil level is between the two lines on

the oil dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.

Use Giant Oil or Use SAE 0 W 40 when

pumping CO

under 32

F (0

Crankcase oil should be changed after the

first 50 hours of operation, then at regular

intervals of 500 hours or less depending on

operating conditions.

Installation of the Giant Industries, Inc.,

pump is not a complicated procedure, but

there are some basic steps common to all

pumps. The following information is to be

considered as a general outline for installa-

tion. If you have unique requirements,

please contact Giant Industries, Inc. or your

local distributor for assistance.

1. The pump should be installed flat on a base to

a maximum of a 15 degree angle of inclination to

ensure optimum lubrication.

2. The inlet to the pump should be sized for the

flow rate of the pump with no unnecessary

restrictions that can cause cavitation. Teflon

tape should be used to seal all joints. If pumps

are to be operated at temperatures in excess of

160

F, it is important to insure a positive head

to the pump to prevent cavitation.

3. The discharge plumbing from the pump

should be properly sized to the flow rate to

prevent line pressure loss to the work area. It is

essential to provide a safety bypass valve

between the pump and the work area to protect

the pump from pressure spikes in the event of a

blockage or the use of a shut-off gun.

Finally, remember that high pressure operation in a pump system has many advantages. But, if it is used carelessly

and without regard to its potential hazard, it can cause serious injury.

NOTE:

In order to drive the pump from the side opposite the present shaft extension,

simply remove the valve casing from the crankcase and rotate the pumps 180

degrees to the desired position. Be certain to rotate the seal case (item #20) as

well, so that the weep holes are

down at the six o'clock position. Exchange the oil

fill and the oil drain plugs, also. Refer to the repair instructions as necessary for

the proper assembly sequence.

HORSEPOWER RATINGS:

The rating shown are the power

requirements for the

pump. Gas

engine power outputs must be

approximately twice the pump

power requirements shown above.

We recommend a 1.15 service factor

be specified when selecting an

electric motor as the power source.

To compute specific pump horse

power requirements, use the

following formula:

HP = (GPM X PSI) / 1450

Consult the factory for special requirements that must be met if the pump is

to operate beyond one or more of the limits specified above.
