WARNING
This product should not be used for fluid transfer into aircraft. This
product is not suited for use with fluids for human consumption or
fluids containing water.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, it is essential to read and follow
each of these warnings and precautions.
1. Improper use or installation of this product can cause serious
bodily injury or death.
2. Do NOT smoke near pump or use pump near an open flame.
Fire could result.
3. Disconnect power to pump before servicing pump.
4. Take motors needing service to an authorized repair shop to
maintain “explosion-proof” and “rain-proof” integrity.
5. A biodiesel compatible filter should be used on pump outlet to
ensure that no foreign material is transferred to fuel tank.
6. The pump motor is equipped with thermal overload protection.
If overheated, it will shut itself off without any damage to the
windings. Turn off the pump power if this occurs. When the
motor cools, it will restart without warning if power is on.
7. Storage tank should be anchored to prevent tipping in both
the full and empty conditions.
8. To minimize static electricity build-up, keep nozzle in contact
with container being filled while filling container.
CAUTION
Not for use with Gasoline, Diesel Fuel or Biodiesel less than B21.
Use the Fill-Rite® Series FR300 pump to dispense gasoline & the
Series FR310 pump to dispense diesel fuel.

the possibility of electrical shock. Failure
to comply with this warning could result
in serious injury and/or loss of property.
Use only static wire, conductive hose
when pumping flammable fluids.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Pump has a built-in check valve with pressure relief to prevent fluid
thermal expansion from causing unsafe system pressures.
Do NOT use additional check valves or foot valves unless
they have a proper pressure relief valve built into them.
Pumps are furnished with a tank adapter for tank mounting;
pedestals are available for island installations. All tanks must be
properly vented. Biodiesel compatible filters are recommended
when dispensing into vehicles.
Use oil resistant pipe sealant on all pipe threads to protect against
leaks.
SKID TANK MOUNTING (See figure 1)
1. Cut a 1-1/2" pipe that will extend to at least 3" above bottom of
tank when screwed into tank adapter and tank adapter is
screwed into tank flange.
2. Screw pipe into tank adapter, then screw tank adapter into tank
flange.
3. Mount pump on tank adapter.
The Fill-Rite Series BD310 products are positive displacement, rotary
vane pumps. Their rugged motors are explosion-proof and rain-proof
to ensure a long life of dependability.
