             OIL PUMPS INSTRUCTIONS        

    Installation/ Operating Instructions Manifold Series

    Before mounting the system, locate a site preferably within 6 feet of the engines with sufficient space under or near the unit to position a bucket or other container for waste and new oil. (A five gallon bucket is approximately 18 high and 12 in diameter.) Install fittings to the valves and the fill/ discharge fitting to accept the size of the hose you plan to use. A minimum 1/2 ID hose is recommended. 5/8 hose is preferred for all hose runs over 7 feet. Use a wrench to hold the valves from rotating when installing the hose fittings. Apply pipe sealant or thread tape to all fittings installed in the valves.

    NOTE: The valves have a 1/2 NPT female thread (National Pipe Thread)
    The fill/ discharge fitting is 1/2 SAE male flare

    Once the fittings are installed in the valves, the system is ready to mount. The oil pump system can be mounted in any orientation, except with the pump head above the motor. It is not recommended that the pump head be mounted above the motor.

    Use a minimum of four (4)- #10 (5mm) self-tapping screws to mount the 702, 703 and 704 systems and six (6) fasteners to mount the 705 and 706 systems. Install fasteners of sufficient length to support the system. A minimum of 1/2 (13mm) penetration past the bottom of the base plate is recommended. The base plate is 1/2 (12.7mm) thick.

    Install oil pan fittings to the engines that will be serviced by the system. Insure that the drain fitting has a minimum internal diameter (bore) of 1/4 (6mm). (REVERSO carries a complete line of oil pan fittings for most engines, generators and transmissions ). Install the proper hose connection to the pan fitting to accept the size hose chosen. (1/2 min.) Avoid the use of elbows or any other tight bends in the hose runs that would restrict the flow of oil. Install a clamp or strap every 18 (45cm) to adequately support the hose.
    Prime the pump before initial use to insure long impeller life. See operating instructions.

    ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
    Use a minimum of #14 gauge wire to connect the system. Locate a source of power that matches the voltage requirement of the pump motor. Connect the hot lead from the power source to the red wire and connect the common lead to the black wire. The system has an in-line 15 amp slow burn fuse. If a circuit breaker is to be installed in the wiring circuit, use a 20 amp breaker for a 12 volt system and a 10 amp breaker for a 24 volt system. The start-up load will cause a smaller breaker to trip.

    Directions for Priming the Manifold System

    Once the unit is mounted and all of the hoses are attached, insert the drain/ fill hose into a container of new oil. Open the first valve on the manifold and switch the pump to draw oil from the container into the open hose. (Push the switch toward the manifold) Run the pump for about ten seconds until you hear the sound of the pump change as it loads up with oil. Close this valve and open the next valve in line and switch the pump to draw oil from the container into this next hose. Repeat the above procedure for the rest of the lines connected to the manifold. The system is now primed and ready to draw oil from any line in either direction. Use the labels provided to identify each valve/ hose connection. Draining Oil from Engine(s): Place the drain/ fill hose in an empty container. Open the valve on the manifold which connects to the engine to be serviced. Switch the pump to draw oil from the engine. (Push the switch away from manifold) Repeat this process for each engine, transmission or generator to be serviced. Filling/ Adding Oil to Engine(s): Place the drain/ fill hose into a container of new oil. Open the valve on the manifold which connects to the engine to be serviced. Switch the pump to draw oil from the new oil container. (Push the switch toward the manifold) NOTE: Operate pump with only one valve open at a time. NOTE: Be sure that a valve is open prior to pump operation. Operate pump with only one valve open at a time. Be sure to close all valves when oil change is completed. (Handle pointed down - valve open) (Handle pointed to the side - valve closed)
